[. . . ] People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before using this product. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a heart pacemaker could cause interference to or failure of the pacemaker. Do not place any objects on top of or next to the Inverter or allow anything to cover the cooling fans; doing so can cause the Inverter to overheat, causing a potential fire hazard and/or damage to the Inverter. Leave adequate ventilation space underneath the Inverter as well; thick carpets or rugs can obstruct air flow, causing the Inverter to overheat. A vehicle's engine must never be used in any sealed structure. Carbon monoxide is produced during operation and is DEADLY in a closed environment. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu, with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you have these signs, get fresh air immediately. Note: Performance of this unit may vary depending on the available battery power or appliance wattage. Warning: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator. Unpacking When unpacking, check to make sure that the Inverter is in good condition. If any parts are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the cover of this manual as soon as possible. SKU 93761 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 4 BACK Positive Negative Ground WARNING! Risk of Fire! The positive battery terminal connection must be the LAST connection and must be done with the inverter's switch off. Connection For the power inverter to work properly, your power source must provide 12 volts DC, and the power source must provide enough current (i. e. , 46 amps to operate the load of 560 Watts or under). Caution: This inverter must only be connected to batteries with a nominal output voltage of 12 volts. Lower voltage will not operate the inverter properly, and more voltage could damage the inverter or the device being powered. If more than one 12 volt battery is to be used, the batteries must be connected in a parallel circuit; batteries connected in a series circuit will produce too much voltage. Place the Power Inverter on a flat surface. Make sure it has adequate ventilation and is not in direct sunlight. Fasten the inverter securely to the surface, using screws or some other means. If holes are to be drilled, follow safe, proper installation techniques. Connect the Battery Cable (not included; #3 AWG or larger cables recommended) lugs to the (Positive) red and (Negative) black terminals on the back of the Inverter, see BACK above. Connect the Ground Cable (not included; #6 AWG or larger cable recommended) lug to the Ground terminal, see BACK above. The Power Inverter can be used either while the engine is running or off. [. . . ] You could use this device with the inverter. If your television will not start, it is important to keep in mind that some appliances (including many televisions) may require two to six times their wattage to start up. If your audio system buzzes while using this inverter, it is because some sound systems can not filter out the modified sine wave produced by the inverter. Use a sound system that incorporates a higher quality power supply. [. . . ]
