5.1 Valg af placering

• Mount the inverter on a flat, stable surface.
• Ensure the location is dry, cool, and well-ventilated.
• Avoid areas with direct sunlight, heat, or moisture.
• Maintain at least 6 inches of clear space around the inverter for proper airflow.

5.2 Grounding the Inverter

The inverter must be properly grounded. Connect a heavy-gauge wire (not included) from the inverter's ground terminal to a suitable earth ground point, such as the chassis of a vehicle or a dedicated ground rod.

5.3 Connecting to a 12V Battery

Use the provided 3FT 0 AWG battery cables for connection. Ensure the inverter is turned off before making connections.

1. Tilslut rød cable to the inverter's positiv (+) terminal and then to the battery's positiv (+) terminal.
2. Tilslut sort cable to the inverter's negativ (-) terminal and then to the battery's negativ (-) terminal.
3. Sørg for, at alle forbindelser er tætte og sikre. Løse forbindelser kan forårsage overophedning og skader.

5.4 Hardwire AC Output Connection

The included hardwire kit allows for permanent AC wiring. This connection is suitable for fixed installations where direct wiring to a distribution panel or specific appliances is desired.
