OPERATION
Making the Connection.
This inverter is designed to connect to your 12 volt battery
using the lighter socket plug or by the supplied battery
cables (for appliances over 150 watts, 400 watt model only).
1. Make certain that the inverter rocker switch is in the
OFF (O) position.
2. Connect the lighter plug or hardwire cables to the
power input terminals at the rear of the inverter and
tighten the screws to make a secure connection.
Do not use tools to tighten these screws.
Steps 3 - 5 are used when any appliance requires
over 150 watts. Step 6 is for appliances under 150
watts.
3. Connect the cable from the (BLACK) Negative (-)
terminal on the inverter to the Negative (-) terminal on
the 12 volt power source. Make certain the
connection is secure.
4. Confirm that the cable you have just installed is
properly connected. Specifically, make certain that
the cable is connected to the Negative (-) terminals on
both the inverter and the 12 volt power source.
5. Connect the cable from the (RED) Positive (+) terminal
on the inverter to the Positive (+) terminal on the
power source.

OPERATION
6. Remove the lighter and insert the adapter plug firmly into
the cigarette lighter socket.* (Make certain both the
socket and adapter plugs are clean.)
Note:
• If the equipment or appliance you intend to operate
requires more than 150 watts of continuous power, this
inverter should be connected directly to the power
source using the Hard Wire Cables (400 watt model).
Failure to do so may result in serious damage to the
power cord or to the cigarette socket lighter wiring.
• Loose connections can result in a severe decrease in
voltage which may cause damage to the wires and
insulation.
• Failure to make proper connection between the inverter
and the power source will result in reverse polarity.
Reverse polarity will blow the internal fuse(s) and may
cause permanent damage to the inverter. Damage
caused by reverse polarity is not covered under the
WHISTLER warranty.
• Making the connection between the Positive terminals
may cause a spark as a result of current flowing to the
capacitors in the inverter. This is a normal occurrence.
Due to the potential for sparking, however, it is extremely
important that both the inverter and the 12 volt battery
be well removed from any possible source of flammable
fumes or gases.
Failure to heed this warning could result in fire or
explosion.
*Some vehicle lighter sockets may only supply 10 amps or approximately 100 watts. If so,
use the hardwire cables. Check vehicle’s owner’s manual for lighter socket fuse rating.
