IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Before using your PI-100SL, read and understand this

Owner’s Manual.

• Keep the inverter well ventilated in order to properly dis-

perse heat generated while it is in use. Make sure there

are several inches of clearance around the top and sides

of the inverter. Do Not block the slots of the inverter.

• Make sure the inverter is not close to any potential source

of ammable fumes, gases or clothing.

• Keep the inverter dry.

• DO NOT allow it to come into contact with rain or moisture.

• DO NOT operate the inverter if you, the inverter, the device

being operated or any other surfaces that may come in

contact with any power source are wet. Water and many

other liquids can conduct electricity, which may lead to

serious injury.

• Do not place the inverter on or near heating vents, radia-

tors, other sources of heat or ammable materials.

• Do not place the inverter in direct sunlight. The ideal air

temperature for operation is between 50° and 80°F.

• Do not use near open engine compartment.

• Only connect the power inverter to a 12-volt accessory

outlet or 12-volt airplane power outlet. Make sure the AC

plug and/or USB connection is tight.

• Do not modify the AC or USB receptacle in any way.

• Use only 15-amp fuses.

• This device does not include an internal Ground Fault Circuit

Interrupter (GFCI). For GFCI protection, use a Coleman

Cable 02822 GFCI outlet.

WARNING: Handling the cord on this product or cords as-

sociated with accessories sold with this product, may expose

you to lead, a chemical known to the State of California to

cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Wash hands after handling.

BEFORE USING PI-100SL POWER INVERTER

It is important to know the continuous wattage of the device

you plan to use with the inverter. The PI-100SL must be used

with devices drawing 100 watts or less. If the wattage is not

marked on the device, an estimate can be made by multiply-

ing the AC input current (Amps) by the AC voltage (110V).

Devices like TVs, fans or electric motors require additional

power to start (commonly known as the “starting or peak

power”). The PI-100SL can supply a momentary surge in

wattage; however even devices rated less than the maximum

100 watts can exceed the inverters surge capability and

cause an automatic overload shutdown.

Make sure the device you are using is compatible with a

modied sine wave inverter.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Plugging into an airplane power or 12V accessory outlet:

1. Plug the included power cable into the inverter. Note the

plug will only t into the outlet one way.

2. If using a 12 volt accessory outlet, push the adapter into

the airplane power plug rmly. Note the plug will only t

into the outlet one way. Press the plug into the power

outlet rmly.

3. The LED indicator light should glow GREEN verifying

the inverter is receiving power. If the LED indicator glows

RED, read Troubleshooting.

4. Make sure that the device to be operated is turned OFF.

Plug the device into the PI-100SL AC outlet or USB outlet

and turn the device on.

NOTE: A ‘’buzzing’’ sound emitted from inexpensive

sound systems is the result of ineffective lters in the

sound system. This can be resolved by purchasing a

sound system with a higher quality power supply or

higher quality lter.

POWER SOURCE

Your average automobile or marine battery at full charge

will provide an ample power supply to the inverter for ap-

proximately 3 hours when the engine is off. The actual length

of time the inverter will function depends on the age and

condition of the battery and the power demand being placed

by the device being operated with the inverter.

Before starting the engine, disconnect the inverter’s plug

from the 12V accessory outlet. To maintain battery power,

run the engine every 2 to 3 hours for approximately 10

minutes to recharge the battery. While the PI-100SL draws

very low amperage when not in use, it should be unplugged

to avoid battery drain.

USAGE EXAMPLES

Radios 15 watts

Portable CD 50 watts

Laptop Computers 60-80 watts

Video Games 80 watts

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM: RED LED is on.

Reason/Solution

1. Too much power draw.

Unplug and reinsert PI-100SL.

Use a smaller device or use a larger inverter.

2. Inverter is too hot.

Increase ventilation to inverter.

Move inverter to a cooler area.

Reduce the power consumption of the device.

Inverter will automatically reset after cooling.

3. Input voltage is too high or too low.

Verify you are using a 12V power source with a voltage

between 10.5 – 15.0V DC.

PROBLEM: LEDs do not light, inverter does not

function.

Reason/Solution

1. Poor contact at terminals.

Unplug and reinsert PI-100SL.

2. Fuse blows

A blown fuse is usually caused by reverse polar-

ity or a short circuit within the inverter. To replace,

remove the old fuse and insert a new 15 amp fuse

(mini spade type).

3. Inverter may be defective.

5485 (Hours: 7 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. CST).
