INSTALLATION • Ensure the Inverter has not been damaged in transit. • The Inverter must not be installed outside • The unit must be placed in a well-ventilated and protected area, not exposed to the open environment, and free from contaminates (i.e. exhaust gases, sea air, battery gases, dust). • A space of 10cm is needed on each side of the Inverter for adequate transfer of internal heat. • The Inverter can be mounted horizontally on a table or floor.

BATTERIES WARRANTY TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR AUSTRALIA BATTERY SIZING It is important to match your Battery size according to the power rating of the Inverter. To ensure peak performance, it is important to choose the right Battery for your Inverter. The Battery size required will depend on the load and intended running time. Use this formula as a general guide: Recommended Battery Size = Inverter rating in watts ÷ input voltage × 10 e.g.
FAULT FINDING Should the Inverter appear to be malfunctioning we suggest the following to eliminate any external problems: 1. Turn the Inverter “OFF” via the Circuit Breaker switch on the front panel. 2. Disconnect all AC wiring from the Inverter. 3. Disconnect DC Battery leads from Battery. Clean all terminals by removing all grease/corrosion on both DC leads and Battery terminals. 4.
DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY DIP SWITCH LOCATION Manufacturer: Latronic Sunpower Pty Ltd 105 Grigor St West Moffat Beach Industrial Park Caloundra Queensland 4551 Australia MAIN PCB Declare that the LS series of inverters conform to the requirements of following standards 1 2 3 4 5 6 OFF DIP Switch located on Main PCB EN61000-6-1 EN61000-6-3 EN55014 AS1044 EN60335-1 AS3100 And therefore conform to the regulations of the EC directives Directive 2004/108/CE (EMC directive), Directive 2006/95/CE (low Voltage
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) is a phenomenon that exists in modern society and is a problem in many areas of electronics. For Inverter users, RFI normally presents itself in the form of static and/or interference when listening to an AM radio and in unusual cases may interfere with TV reception.

INVERTER OPERATION When the Inverter is switched on all 3 LEDs light up for 1 second while the microprocessor performs a start up and system check procedure. Over temp./Over load (Red LED) If the internal temperature exceeds safe operating limits of the components for more than five seconds, the Inverter will shut down in Over temp with this LED on continuously. Allow 5 minutes for the Inverter to cool and reset the unit.
