LED INDICATOR AND SHUTDOWN PROTECTION
The Green LED lights automatically when
3.
the inverter is plugged into a 12 volt
DC power source and is turned on. The
Red LED lights, the alarm sounds and
the inverter automatically turns itself off
under the following conditions:
1.
When the power input from the
vehicle’s battery drops to approximately
10.5 volts, the low voltage alarm will
sound. When the voltage goes down
below 10 VDC, the inverter shuts off.
Recharge or replace the battery.
2.
When the power input from the
vehicle’s battery exceeds 16 volts, high
voltage protection occurs.
The continuous load demand from the
equipment or device being operated
exceeds the continuous load rating of
the inverter.
Use a higher capacity
inverter or lower rated device.
4.
The thermal resistor exceeds
80° C (176° F.)
Allow the inverter to
cool. Do not block the cooling slots or
inverter
Reduce the load on the inverter to
the continuous rated output.
RESET:
To reset after shutdown occurs,
switch the inverter’s ON/OFF switch to the
OFF (O) position. Check the source of the
problem and correct. Switch the inverter’s
ON/OFF switch to the ON (I) position.
