INVERTER DAMAGE
Reversing the positive and negative battery cables will damage the
inverter and will void your warranty.
Before connecting the inverter to the battery, double check the
connections: The red wire must be connected to the red terminal on the
inverter and the positive (+) terminal on the battery; the black wire
must be connected to the black terminal on the inverter and the
negative (–) terminal on the battery.
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or
damage other equipment.
