Inverter by Wagan Tech

• Coil the television power cord or install a clamp-on ferrite choke (available from electronic

parts suppliers).

Note: Some inexpensive audio systems may have a slight “buzzing” sound when operated with

the inverter. This is caused by insufﬁcient ﬁltering in the audio system. The only solution to this

problem is to get a sound system with a higher quality power supply.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM: Low or no output voltage

Reason Solution

Poor contact with battery terminals Clean terminals thoroughly

Using incorrect type of voltmeter to test

output voltage

Use true RMS reading meter

PROBLEM: Inverter is shut down

Reason Solution

Battery voltage below rated value. Recharge or replace battery

Equipment being operated draws too much

power

Cable gauge may be inadequate—use heavier

cables

Inverter is too hot (thermal shut down mode) Allow inverter to cool

Check for adequate ventilation.

Reduce the load on the inverter to rated continuous

power output

Unit may be defective See warranty and call customer service

PROBLEM: TV/audio interference

Reason Solution

Electrical interference from the inverter Add a ferrite data line ﬁlter on to the TV

power cord

PROBLEM: Low battery alarm on all the time

Reason Solution

Input voltage below rated value. Increase input voltage maintain regulation.

Poor or weak battery condition Recharge or replace battery

Poor or loose cable connection Inspect terminals and tighten all connections

Inadequate power being delivered to the

inverter or excessive voltage drop

Use lower gauge wire

Keep wire length as short as possible
