CAUTION:

If you feel unsure about installing this system yourself, have it installed by a qualified technician.

WARNING: To prevent serious personal injury, fire, electrical shock and/or damage, never connect the inverter to an AC powered outlet.

Always unplug the appliance or device from the inverter before attempting any repairs to the appliance or device.

Never connect the inverter to places designated as IGNITION PROTECTED.

CAUTION: Failure to observe the following safety precautions could result in fire, damage to the inverter, vehicle and/or personal injury.

• DO NOT use with 6 or 24 volt DC systems or positive ground electrical systems. The majority of all vehicles are negative ground.
• DO NOT use the inverter to operate high wattage appliances or devices that produce heat, such as hair dryers, healers, toasters, microwave ovens, etc.
  • DO NOT operate the inverter if it is wel.
• DO NOT install the inverter in the engine compartment. Install in a well ventilated, dry area.
• DO NOT use the inverter with a surge protector or power strip.
• DO NOT use the inverter to power medical equipment or devices.
• DO NOT replace a fuse with one of a different type or rating.
• DO NOT operate the inverter near flammable material or where flammable fumes or gases may accumulate.
  • DO NOT connect the inverter to a vehicle battery while it is running.
• ALWAYS turn any device connected to the inverter OFF before starting the vehicle.

Locate on your inverter in a well ventilated, dry place free from dirt and grease. Keep the inverter away from heater vents or heat producing devices. If at all possible, keep the inverter away from direct sunlight.

CONNECTIONS

Before connecting the inverter to power, determine the wattage needed to power your devices. Most electrical devices have labels that indicate the power consumption in amps or watts. To convert amps into watts, multiply amps by the voltage. Example: a 110 volt AC device requires 1.2 amps, 110 X 1.2 = 132 watts needed.

If you're plugging the inverter into a cigarette lighter outlet, ensure the outlet can supply the wattage needed. Most vehicles have a 15 or 20 amp fuse protecting the circuit. Multiply the fuse rating by voltage to determine the maximum wattage output available. Example: 12 volts X 15 amp fuse = 180 watts maximum.

NOTE: For loads over 180 watts, connect the inverter directly to the battery.

NOTE: Some vehicles may require you to turn the ignition switch to the On position to supply power to the cigarette lighter outlet.

CAUTION: To prevent fire, damage to the inverter, vehicle and/or personal injury, do not replace a fuse with one of a different type or rating.

NOTE: Some devices, such as TVs and stereos, may require 2 to 6 times their wattage rating to start up. Testing is the only way to check if the inverter will operate these devices. If an overload does occur, the inverter will shut down. Remove the device that caused the overload and if necessary turn the power switch on the inverter Off then On.

Connecting to Cigarette Lighter Outlet (All Models)

1. (Models CPPI300 and 300I IW) Connect the cigarette plug harness to the binding posts on the inverter.
2. Plug the cigarette plug into the cigarette lighter outlet.
3. The green LED on the inverter should light showing power is connected and On.
4. Turn the switch on the inverter to On. This will light.
5. Plug your device into the inverter and use normally.

Connecting Directly to Battery

(CPPI300 and CPPI300HW Only)

1. (Model CPPI300 only) Connect the battery clip harness to the binding posts on the inverter.
2. Clip the RED (positive +) clip to the positive (+) post on the battery.
3. Clip the BLACK (negative -) clip to the negative (-) post on the battery.

CAUTION: To prevent fire, damage to the inverter, vehicle and/or personal injury, never connect the inverter to a vehicle battery while it is running.

1. The green LED on the inverter should light showing power is connected and On.
2. Turn the switch on the inverter to On. This will light.
3. Plug your device into the inverter and use normally.

CAUTION: To prevent damage to the inverter and/or vehicle, turn any device connected to the inverter OFF before starting the vehicle.
