GENERAL INFORMATION
Read, understand and comply with these instructions before using this inverter.
Keep this User’s Guide for future reference.
This inverter is powered from a 12 volt DC source and provides 150 Watts AC
60Hz through two North American standard outlets. The AC waveform is a
modified sine wave (MSW) which approximates the sine wave of household
electrical service. This inverter powers AC appliances up to 150 watts. An attached
DC power cord connects to a 12V DC cigarette lighter socket. There is a USB
power port that can be used to charge cell phones, PDAs and MP3 players. Safety
features include automatic shutdown in the event of overheat, overload, output
short circuit and input short circuit.
WARNINGS
• Keep the inverter away from children.
• Do not operate the inverter with wet hands because of an electrical shock
hazard.
• This device produces voltage similar to wall outlets at home and should be
treated with the same caution.
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT/ USER RESPONSIBILITY
• The 12 volt supply must provide between 10 to 15 volts DC
• Make sure the inverter is connected to the correct voltage and polarity.
• Unplug or disconnect the inverter when it is not in use.
• Unplug the inverter when starting the vehicle's engine.
• Keep at least one inch of clearance around the inverter for air flow.

• Do not connect the inverters AC output to another AC power source. Damage
will result, voiding the inverter's warranty.
• Do not use an extension cord between the DC power source and the DC input
of the inverter. An extension cord can create a voltage drop that can reduce
efficiency and output.
OPERATION
The cigarette lighter Adapter (DC plug) is fused at 20 amps. The plug allows the
Inverter to be easily connected to a cigarette lighter socket or accessory socket in a
vehicle. Removing the accessory socket plug allows the inverter to be powered
from an airline power receptacle.
FOR POWER CORD WITH CIGARETTE LIGHTER ADAPTER INSTALLED:

1. Connect the device to the adapter cord
2. Plug the USB connector into thee USB Port
3. Turn on the device

CAUTIONS
If you use a battery charger to recharge your battery, be sure to disconnect the
inverter first. Failure to disconnect the Inverter prior to connecting a charger may
result in an input voltage spike that can damage the Inverter.
Powering this inverter with greater than 15 volts DC can damage the inverter and
void the warranty.
Do not use an extension cord between the DC power source and the DC input of
the Inverter. An extension cord on the DC input can create a voltage drop that can
reduce efficiency and output.
Do not open the case of the inverter. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Do not let the cord of the inverter or any appliance cord get wet. Do not operate
this Inverter in or around water. Water can damage the Inverter. Water damage is
