4.3 CONNECTION TO LOAD
The MAXX 400 SST is equipped with dual standard North American AC
power receptacles. Plug the cord from the equipment you wish to operate
into the AC receptacle(s). The green LED indicator lights to indicate that the
inverter is functioning. Make sure the combined load requirement of your
equipment does not exceed 400 SST watts.
The MAXX 400 SST is engineered to be connected directly to standard
electrical and electronic equipment in the manner described above. Do not
connect the power inverter to household or RV AC distribution wiring. Do not
connect the power inverter to any AC load circuit in which the neutral
conductor is
connected to ground (earth) or to the negative of the DC (battery) source.
WARNING: Do not connect to AC distribution wiring.
CAUTION: RECHARGEABLE APPLIANCES
Certain rechargeable devices are designed to be recharged by
plugging them directly into an AC receptacle. These devices may
damage the inverter. Do not use the inverter to recharge items that q
can be plugged directly into an AC receptacle.
This problem does not occur with the majority of battery-operated
equipment. Most of these devices use a separate charger or transformer
that is plugged into an AC receptacle. The MAXX 400 SST is easily
capable of running most chargers and transformers.
4.4 PLACEMENT OF THE INVERTER
For best operating results, the inverter should be placed on a flat surface,
such as the ground, car floor or other solid surface. A power cord measuring
3 feet (1.0 meter) has been provided for easy positioning of the inverter.
The inverter should only be used in locations that meet the following
criteria:
DRY - Do not allow water and/or other liquids to come into contact with
the MAXX 400 SST inverter.
COOL - Ambient air temperature should be between 30 degrees F (-1
degree C) non-condensing, and 105 degrees F (40 degrees C). Do not
place the inverter on or near a heating vent or any piece of equipment
which is generating heat above room temperature. Keep the inverter away
from direct sunlight, if at all possible.
VENTILATED - Keep the area surrounding the inverter clear to ensure free
