Important Safety Instructions
1. Before using the inverter, read all instructions and cautionary markings on the
unit, the batteries, and all appropriate sections of this manual.
2. Use of accessories not recommended or sold by Xantrex Technology Inc. may result in
a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
3. The inverter is designed to be permanently connected to your AC and DC electrical
systems. Xantrex recommends that all wiring be done by a certified technician or
electrician to ensure adherence to the local and national electrical codes applicable in
your jurisdiction.
4. To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that existing wiring is in good
condition and that wire is not undersized. Do not operate the inverter with damaged or
substandard wiring.

on obtaining service. Attempting to service the unit yourself may result in a risk of
electrical shock or fire. Internal capacitors remain charged after all power is
disconnected.
7. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both AC and DC power from the
inverter before attempting any maintenance or cleaning or working on any
components connected to the inverter. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
8. The inverter must be provided with an equipment-grounding conductor connected to
the AC input ground.
