WARNING Power inverters contain components that may produce arcs
or sparks. To prevent fire or explosion, do not install the inverter in areas
or compartments containing batteries or flammable materials or in locations
that require ignition-protected equipment.
WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, do not cover or obstruct the ventilation
openings. Do not install inverter in zero-clearance compartment.
Caution: Rechargeable Appliances
Certain chargers for small nickel cadmium batteries can be damaged if connected to
the CobraMarine
™
M2200 Power Inverter. Two (2) particular types of equipment are
prone to this problem:
1. Small battery-operated appliances such as flashlights,
razors, and night lights that can be plugged directly into
an AC receptacle to recharge.
2. Certain battery chargers for battery packs used in hand
power tools. These chargers have a WARNING label stating
that dangerous voltages are present at the battery terminals.
This problem does not occur with the vast majority of battery-operated equipment.
Most use a separate charger or transformer that is plugged into the AC receptacle
and produces a low voltage output. If the label on the AC adapter or charger states
that it produces a low voltage AC or DC output (less than 30 volts), the inverter
will have no problem powering the adapter safely.

M2200 Output Waveform
The output waveform is referred to as “square wave” or “modified sine wave.” It is a
stepped waveform designed to have characteristics similar to the sine wave shape of
utility power. A waveform of this nature is suitable for most AC loads (including linear
and switching power suppliers used in electronic equipment, transformers and motors).
Some very sensitive electronic equipment may not operate satisfactorily on “square
wave” or “modified sine wave.”
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) Outlet
Test the GFCI periodically to make sure it is operating properly
(see page 16 for details).
