Warnings for Translation

• Read all instructions before attempting to install or use the inverter.
• High voltage, 230 volts ac, is generated by this unit.
• Do not use it with wet hands or near water.
• This unit is only suitable for 12-volt electrical systems with negative earth.
• To supply 230 volt 50 Hz loads of < 3000 watts.
• Do not connect to any other ac power source.

Installation Instructions

 Disconnect all battery leads, -ve leads first, before installing the inverter.

 Locate a suitable position for the inverter and fit it securely. The site chosen should be:

• Well ventilated.
• Not exposed to direct sunlight or heat source.
• Away from water or moisture.
• Out of reach of children.
• Away from any flammable or heat-sensitive substance.

 Connect the Black 12 volts -ve terminal to the negative side of the supply source and the Red 12 volts +ve terminal to a fused positive supply source. Use a minimum of 60.0mm² cable and keep all cable runs as short as possible.

 Connect the inverter case ground terminal to the chassis ground when installing in a vehicle, the vessel’s grounding system in a boat or to earth in a fixed location. The case ground terminal is connected to the ground terminal in the ac outlet socket.

 If using an additional remote control (part number to purchase: 0-856-98), fix the remote control in a suitable position and insert the connector into the remote control socket on the inverter control panel.

Operating Instructions

1. Ensure that the inverter is supplied by a 12-14 volt dc negative earth system and that the load requires <3000 watts at 230 volts 50Hz ac.
2. Plug the appliance into the inverter and then turn on the inverter’s power switch. The LED will illuminate to indicate ac power is present, then switch on the appliance. Always turn on the inverter before turning on loads individually. If using the optional remote control, ensure the control panel power switch is set to ‘Remote’, then use the remote ‘On/Off’ switch as the inverter power switch.
3. Switch off the inverter when not in use or when heavy current is drawn from the dc supply, e.g. when starting an engine from the same supply source.
4. The overtemp indicator illuminates when the inverter has shut down due to overheating. The inverter will restart automatically once it has cooled down.
5. The overload indicator illuminates when the inverter has shut down due to output short-circuit or gross overloading. If this occurs, switch the inverter off and correct the cause before switching the inverter on again.

Troubleshooting

 If the inverter beeps or does not appear to be functioning correctly, check the following:

1. Low dc supply voltage, supply voltage <10 .5 ± 0.5 volts. Indicated by 3 short beeps.
2. Low dc voltage shutdown, supply voltage <10.0 ± 0.5 volts. Indicated by 3 long beeps.
3. Overload shutdown, check load requirement is <3000 watts. The warning signal is constant short beeps, and a continuous tone indicates shutdown.
4. Thermal shutdown, switch off, allow the inverter to cool down and reduce load. The warning signal is 2 short beeps, and 2 long beeps indicate shutdown.
5. Wiring, terminals and connections.
