Safe: DO NOT install the QuietPower Inverter in the same compartment as batteries or
in any compartment capable of storing flammable liquids such as gasoline. DO NOT
install the QuietPower Inverter in an engine compartment or other location where ignition
protected equipment is required.
Dust-free: DO NOT install the QuietPower Inverter in a dusty environment where dust,
wood particles or other filings/shavings are present. These can be pulled into the unit
when the cooling fan is operating.
Avoid the use of AC extension cord(s) wherever possible. If extension cords must
be used, they must be three (3) conductor cords (grounded) and must be suitable for the
circuit current (20A).
Install QuietPower Inverter close to battery/batteries: avoid excessive cable lengths
but DO NOT install the QuietPower Inverter in the same compartment as batteries. Use
the recommended wire lengths and sizes (refer to paragraph 2.6, Wiring the Inverter).
DO NOT mount the QuietPower Inverter where it will be exposed to the gases produced
by the battery. These gases are very corrosive and prolonged exposure will damage the
QuietPower Inverter.
Protected from battery acid: Never allow battery acid to drip on the QuietPower
Inverter or its wiring when reading specific gravity or filling the battery.
