FIRE AND BURN HAZARDS
NEVER operate near flammable materials, fumes, or gases.
• NEVER expose to extreme heat or flames.
• ALWAYS install the power inverter in a location not likely to come into contact with skin as
the surface may become hot.
• NEVER operate the power inverter near fumes or gases (such as the cabin of a gasoline
power boat or near propane tanks) or in an enclosed area that contains lead-acid batteries
for automotive use. This type of battery emits explosive hydrogen gas which can be ignited
by sparks.
Battery gases are explosive.
• NEVER allow open flames, lit cigarettes, sparks, or spark producing equipment near the
battery.
Battery electrolyte fluid is comprised of sulfuric acid, which can
be very dangerous and cause severe burns.
• NEVER allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin, or clothing. If contact or spillage occurs,
immediately flush the area with water.
To avoid electric arcing, which can result in electric shock, follow
these instructions exactly.
Exposed terminals, even on disconnected batteries, can cause
electric shock.
• NEVER touch both battery terminals with bare hands at the same time.
• Remove rings, watches or any other object containing metal when working with battery.
If metal comes into contact with battery terminals, electric shock and serious burns can
result.
• Only use insulated/non-conducting tools when working with or near battery.
• NEVER lay tools or other metal objects on top of battery.
• NEVER operate in rain or snow, set on wet surfaces, immerse in liquid, or use in marine
applications.
