CAUTION: Read the entire manual before use. Incorrect installation or improper use of the
inverter may cause danger to the user or dangerous conditions.
Safety symbols
Read the instruction manual.
•The inverter produces the same potentially deadly AC current as a regular household
electrical outlet. Treat it with the same respect as any other AC outlet.
•Do not insert objects into the AC sockets, fan or ventilation holes of the inverter.
•Do not expose the inverter to water, rain, snow or spray.
•Under no circumstances should the inverter be connected to the AC mains.
•The inverter housing can become uncomfortably warm, reaching 140F 60°C (140F
60°F) with prolonged high-power operation. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of air
space on all sides of the inverter. During operation, stay away from materials that
may be affected by high temperatures.
•Do not use the inverter in the presence of flammable vapors or gases, such as in the
bilge of a gasoline-powered boat or near propane tanks. Do not use the inverter in
areas where lead-acid automotive batteries are present. These batteries, unlike
sealed batteries, emit explosive hydrogen gas that can be ignited by sparks from
electrical connections.

5
SAFETY RULES RELATED TO THE USE OF THE INVERTER
•When working on electrical equipment, always make sure there is someone nearby
who can provide you with emergency assistance.
•Do not connect live AC power to the AC outlets on the inverter. The inverter will be
damaged even if it is turned off.
•Do not connect any AC consumers whose neutral wire is connected to ground to the

SAFETY RULES RELATED TO THE USE OF THE INVERTER
USE OF DC CABLE PLUG
Due to the limitations of a typical 12 V / 24 V / 48 V DC outlet in a vehicle or boat, the
inverter should only be used to supply AC power to products requiring rated continuous
power or less. If the application requires more than the rated continuous power (but less
than the rated continuous power) or has a large starting pitch, see Using DC cable terminals.
1. connect the ring type connector marked in red to the positive (+) DC terminal on the
inverter
2. connect the ring connector marked in black to the negative (-) DC terminal.
3. tighten the nut on each DC terminal by hand until it is well tightened. Do not over-tighten.
4. insert the cab plug into the 12 V / 24 V / 48 V DC socket and turn on the device. If the
inverter does not work properly after connection, refer to Chapter 4.
5. when the inverter is not in use, disconnect the plug from the 12 V / 24 V / 48 V DC outlet
to prevent the battery from being slightly discharged.
USE OF DC CABLE CLAMPS
By connecting the inverter directly to the 12 V / 24 V / 48 V DC battery via DC cable
terminals, you can operate devices with power requirements up to the rated continuous
output power.
1 Follow steps 1 and 2 above (using the DC cable plug) to attach the ring type connectors.
2 Attach the black negative terminal to the negative(-) terminal of the battery.
3 Attach the red positive clip to the positive ( + ) terminal of the battery. Make sure both
clips are securely connected to the battery terminals, as a loose connection will cause
excessive voltage drop and may cause the wires to overheat, resulting in equipment damage
or fire. 4.
4. turn on the inverter. If the inverter does not work properly after connection, see Step 4.
5. when the inverter is not in use, disconnect the DC cable terminals from the battery.

V. HOW TO USE
The Bass Poland inverter is capable of continuously supplying power to most 110 V / 230 V
AC appliances that use rated continuous output power or less. The rated power of AC
products is the average power they consume. When many AC appliances are first turned on,
they initially draw more power than their rated power. Televisions, monitors and electric
motors are examples of products that have a high demand for "surge" at startup. Although
the inverter can deliver momentary power surges, sometimes some products with less than
the rated continuous output power can exceed the inverter's capabilities and cause the
overload protection function to shut down. If this problem occurs when trying to use several
AC devices at the same time, first turn on the inverter with all AC devices turned off, then
turn on each one in turn, starting with the product with the high power spike.
INDICATORS AND CONTROLS
•AC sockets are located at one end of the inverter. Any combination of 110 V/230 V
AC equipment with total continuous power consumption or less can be connected to
them.
•The ON/OFF switch turns on power to the AC outlets when it is turned on.

9
HOW TO USE
•The green POWER light indicates that the AC outlets are supplied with AC power and
the inverter is operating normally.
•The red FAULT light indicates that the inverter has shut down due to low or high
voltage, overload or excessive temperature.
USE OF THE INVERTER
1. When properly connected to a 12 V/24 V/48 V DC outlet or battery, turning on the
ON/OFF switch will illuminate the green POWER light and supply AC power to the
outlets.
2. Connect the AC device(s) to be powered to the AC outlet(s) and turn them on, one by
one.
3. As the battery power is consumed, the battery voltage begins to drop. When the
inverter senses that the DC input voltage has dropped to 10-10.5 V/20-21 V/40-42 V,
an audible alarm will sound. This gives you time to turn off computers or other
sensitive equipment.
4. If the audible alarm is ignored, the inverter will automatically shut down when the
battery voltage drops to 9.8-10.2 V/19.6-20.4 V/39.2- 40.8 V. This prevents damage
to the battery due to overcharging. This prevents damage to the battery due to over-
discharge. After automatic shutdown, the red FAULT light comes on.
IMPORTANT: Automotive batteries are designed to briefly supply the very high current
required to start the engine. They are not designed for continuous deep discharge. Regular
operation of the inverter from a car battery until the low voltage alarm sounds will
shorten the life of the battery. Consider connecting the inverter to a separate deep
discharge type battery if the frequency of powering electrical equipment is to be high for
long periods of time.
5. If an AC product with a power higher than the rated continuous power (or drawing
excessive surge power) is connected, the inverter will shut down. The red FAULT light
will come on.
6. If the inverter exceeds the appropriate operating temperature due to insufficient
ventilation or high ambient temperature, it will shut down automatically. The red
FAULT light will come on and a beep will sound.
7. If damage to the battery charging system causes the battery voltage to rise to a
dangerously high level, the inverter will shut down automatically.
NOTE: Although the inverter has over-voltage protection, it may still be damaged if the input
voltage exceeds 16 V /32 V /64 V.
8. The cooling fan is designed to operate only when the temperature is above 40'C. In
case of overload, low battery voltage or overheating, the inverter will shut down
automatically.

SOLVING TECHNICAL PROBLEMS
BATTERY LIFE
•The operating time depends on the level of charge of the battery, its capacity and the
level of power drawn by the specific AC load.
•When using a car battery as a power source, it is recommended to start the vehicle
every hour or two to recharge the battery before its capacity drops too low.
•The inverter can operate when the motor is turned on, but the normal voltage drop
that occurs during startup can disable the inverter's low voltage function.
•Since the inverter draws less current than the no-load current draw with the ON/OFF
switch in the ON position and no AC devices connected, it has minimal impact on
battery life.
INTERFERENCE WITH THE OPERATION OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
In general, most AC-powered devices work with an inverter just as they do with home AC
power. The following provides information on two possible exceptions.
Audio buzzing in audio systems and radios - Some inexpensive stereo systems, boomboxes
and AM-FM radios have inadequate inter-band power filtering and slightly "buzz" when
powered by an inverter. In general, the only solution is an audio product with a higher
quality filter. TV interference - The inverter is shielded to minimize interference from TV
signals. however, with weak TV signals, interference may be visible in the form of scrolling
lines on the screen. The following steps should minimize or eliminate this problem:
•Use an extension cord to increase the distance between the inverter and the TV,
antenna and cabin.
•Adjust the orientation of the inverter, TV, antenna and cables.
•Maximize the strength of the TV signal by using a better antenna and, if possible, use
a shielded cable antenna.
•Try a different TV. Different TV models vary widely in their susceptibility to
interference.
