Welcome to the Dometic world
Dometic Pure Sine wave Inverters – A sign of comfort
The SI 600acs Inverter is designed as a stand –alone power inverter with an
AC transfer switch feature with a bypass for an AC utility connection when
available. This Inverter is extremely suitable for RV, Commercial Vehicle,
Marine and Emergency appliances.
When utility AC power is cut off, the transfer relay is de-energized and the load
is automatically transferred to the SI 600acs output and driven by your 12 or 24
Vdc source. Once the AC utility is restored, the relay is energized and the load
is automatically reconnected to the AC utility.
You have made a wonderful choice to use Inverters from Dometic. Feel free to
contact our dealers for more information or other recommendations within
mobile power supply.
Best regards,
Dometic

1 Important Safety Instructions
WARNING !
Before you install and use your Dometic SI 600acs
Inverter, be sure to read these safety instructions.
1.1 General Safety Precautions
1-1-1. Do not expose the SI 600acs inverter to rain, snow, spray, bilge or dust.
To reduce risk of hazard, do not cover or obstruct the ventilation
openings. Do not install the SI 600acs Inverter in a zero-clearance
compartment. Overheating may result.
1-1-2. To avoid the risk of fire or electric shock, make sure that existing wiring
is in good electrical condition and that wire size is not under sized. Do
not operate the SI 600acs inverter with damaged or substandard wiring.
1-1-3.This equipment contains components which can produce arcs or sparks.
To prevent fire or explosion do not install in compartments containing
batteries or flammable materials or in locations which require ignition
protected equipment. This includes any space containing
gasoline-powered machinery, fuel tanks, or joints, fittings, or other
connections between components of the fuel system.
1.2 Precautions When Working with Batteries
1-2-1. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and
water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with running cold water
for at least 20 minutes and seek medical attention at once.
1-2-2. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
1-2-3. Do not drop a metal tool on the battery. The resulting spark or
short-circuit on the battery or other electrical part may cause an
explosion.
1-2-4. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and
watches when working with a lead-acid battery.
A lead-acid battery produces a short-circuit current high enough to weld
a ring or other metal, causing a severe burn.
