Problem: No Power Output, indicator not ON
Possible causes and suggestions:

• This device outputs 120 Volts of electricity just as a wall 
socket does.  Exercise extreme care that nothing comes in 
contact with the AC connector.

• Do not use in the presence of water or moisture.

• Do not use or place the inverter near flammable 
materials or any locations that may accumulate flammable 
fumes or gases. 

• To avoid potential property damage, do not leave this 
inverter or any device operating unattended in vehicle.

• Always disconnect the input to the inverter when it is not 
in use.

• Disconnect the input cable before starting your car to 
minimize surges.

• Reverse polarity connection will result in a blown fuse 
and may cause permanent damage to the inverter 
(Damage due to reversed polarity is not covered by our 
warranty).

• Do not connect to AC distribution wiring.

• Improper use of this inverter can cause personal injury, 
property damage, and or loss of life.

• This is not a toy.  Keep away from reach of children.

• Indoor use only.

• The maximum in-seat DC power on airplane is 75 Watts. 
Exceed this limit may shut down the in-seat power system.

•  The Car’s battery is low (<11.5Vdc) or defective
Start the engine to recharge or replace the car’s battery if 
needed. Disconnect the input cable before starting the car’s 
engine to minimize power surge. If such a case occurs, 
reconnect the cable to resume normal operation.

•  Connection cable is not secured
Reconnect the cables and make sure all plugs are secured.

•  Equipment being operated draws too much power
Reduce load to continuous 100 watts or below and use 
equipment with starting surge power within inverter capability.

•  Inverter in thermal shut down condition
Allow the inverter to cool down. Ensure there is ventilation 
around the unit.

•  Inverter Fuse blown
Unplug the power cable and replace the fuse following fuse 
replacement instruction.

•  Automotive Fuse for Cigarette Lighter Blown
Check and replace the fuse for your car's cigarette lighter 
following the instructions in your car's service manual.

Problem: Low Output Voltage
Possible cause and suggestions:

• Inverter is overloaded
Reduce  load  to  continuous  100  watts  or  below  to  maintain 
regulation.

• Input voltage below 11.5Vdc
Keep  input  voltage  above  12Vdc  to  maintain  regulation.  
Replace the car’s battery if needed.
