Fuse replacement
WARNING!
For continued protection against risk of fire or electric shock, replace only with a fuse of the
same type and rating (125 V, 8 A).
Follow the instructions to replace the fuse inside the 12 V outlet plug of your connector
cable (J):
Screw off the upper cover of the 12 V outlet plug.
Remove the faulty fuse.
Insert a new fuse and screw the cover of the plug back on.
The power inverter is equipped with protective shutdown features and an acoustic
signal. The details are listed in the following table:
ALARM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
ERROR SIGNAL
Low battery
alarm and
low-voltage
shutdown
As the battery discharges, its
voltage decreases. Voltage
drops to: 10.5–11.0 V =
alarm.
Shut down sensitive loads
such as computers and then
recharge the battery.
Audible alarm
Voltage drops to:
10.0–10.5 V = shutdown.
This protects the battery
from being over-discharged.
Recharge the battery.
Red indicator
light (G) turns on
High- Voltage
shutdown
A defective battery charging
system can cause the battery
voltage to rise to high levels
(15.0–16.3 V).
Although the power inverter
has a protection
against high voltage, it might
still be damaged if the input
voltage were to exceed 16 V.
Disconnect the connected
devices.
Verify that the charging system
is properly regulated and the
battery is 12 V nominal.
Red indicator
light (G) turns on
Overload
shutdown
If you connect a device that
is rated too high or a load
that draws excessive surge
power, the power inverter
shuts down.
Use a product with a power
rating within the power
inverter's continuous power
rating ( See operation).

• While the engine is running, the power inverter can be connected to the vehicle's 12 V outlet
again.
• Consider connecting the power inverter to a separate deep-discharge type of suitable
battery if you will be frequently running electrical devices for extended periods of time.
