Health & Safety Guidelines
Warning! Electric Hazard. Keep away from children
1. This inverter is not a toy, and it should never be used by children.
2. This inverter generates the same voltage as a UK 3-pin plug socket.
Please operate it as if you are using any other AC mains socket.
3. Never insert any kind of foreign object into the inverter’s plug sockets,
fan or vent openings.
4. Do operate or expose the inverter to water, rain, snow or spray
5. Never connect the inverter to an AC power source. This inverter is only
designed to accept a DC power supply.
Warning! Heated Surface
6. The inverter’s outer casing may become hot after prolonged use or
overloading. During operation, ensure there is atleast a 5cm (2 inches)
gap between the inverter and any other walls.
7. Please keep any flammable materials away from the inverter during
operation.
Warning! Explosion Hazard
8. Never use the inverter in the presence of flammable substances
Caution!
9. Do not connect a live AC power source to the inverter’s AC output
sockets. This will damage the inverter, even if the inverter is switched off.
10. Do not expose the inverter to temperatures over 40°C.
Caution! Do not use the inverter with the following equipment:
11. Class 1 appliances. See Class 1/Class 2 section.

Intention For Use
Thank you for purchasing this 800W modified sine wave inverter from Streetwize. This
inverter safely converts your vehicle’s 12V DC battery into a 240V AC power supply for
using standard UK electrical appliances that require up to 800W.
It is intended for people who require access to an AC power supply in areas where
there is restricted access to power. They’re suitable for caravan/campervan users as
well as tradespeople.
This modified sine wave inverter is not suitable for use with appliances with AC
motors (i.e. microwaves, refrigerator), medical equipment, laser printers and
flourescent lights.
In addition, this inverter is primarily designed for operating a wide range of Class
2 appliances. Class 2 appliances are double insulated and do not require earth
connections. Most computers, laptops, photocopiers, cordless power tools, and plastic-
cased appliances are identified as Class 2 appliances.
Class 1 appliances, on the other hand, are protected by basic insulation and earthing
provision and most typically come in a metal casing. This product is not suitable for
operating Class 1 appliances. Typical Class 1 appliances include toasters, kettles,
washing machines and irons.
IMPORTANT: This inverter is primarily designed for powering appliances up to its
stated continuous output. The stated peak output is only available for a limited time.
Class 1 / Class 2
As mentioned in the Intention For Use section, this product is primarily designed
for operating Class 2 appliances, which don’t require earthing provisions.

Product Elements
Measuring The AC Voltage
Operating Instructions
1. Modified sine wave inverter
2. Battery clamp connection cables
The output waveform of the AC output is a MODIFIED SINE WAVE. To measure the AC
output voltage, you must have a TRUE RMS VOLTMETER.

Optimum Working Conditions
For safe & optimum performance, please install the inverter in a location that is:
• Dry - The inverter should not be near any liquid or moisture.
• Cool - Keep it away from any high heat source.
• Well-ventilated - Allow for atleast 5cm of space on all sides.
• Clean - To prevent any dust or unwanted elements from getting inside the inverter.
• Away from flammable substances - To prevent fire or explosion.

12V Socket
To use the inverter via your vehicle’s 12V socket, simply connect the O-rings of the 12V
connection cable to the inverter’s terminals, with the black cable going to the negative
terminal and the red cable going to the positive terminal. Plug the 12V plug into the 12V
socket, then switch on your vehicle.
WARNING: Only use the 12V plug for powering appliances that require less than 150W.
Do NOT power an appliance that requires more than 150W as this will risk damaging
your vehicle’s fuse.
Direct Battery Connection
Before connecting this inverter, please ensure your vehicle is fully switched off.
Then, connect the black (negative) battery clamp connection cable to the negative terminal
of the inverter via the O-ring first, and then connect the clamp to the negative battery ter-
minal of your 12V battery. Then, connect the red (positive) battery clamp connection cable
to the positive terminal of the inverter via the O-ring and then connect the clamp to the
positive battery terminal of your 12V battery.
IMPORTANT: When starting your vehicle’s engine, please disconnect the inverter first
before starting the engine.
Operating Appliances
Operating an Appliance Through The 3-Pin Plug
Once the inverter is connected to your battery, just plug in your appliance via the 3 pin
socket, and then turn ON the power switch.
Operating an Appliance Via The USB
Once the inverter is connected to your battery, just plug in the device via the USB socket,
and then turn ON the power switch.
Peak Output
This inverter provides a continuous output of 800W as well as a peak output of 1600W.
Meaning, when you try to power appliances that total more than 800W, the inverter has the
capability to automatically adjust the wattage up to 1600W.
IMPORTANT: When operating appliances that require more than the specified continu-
ous power wattage, the inverter will operate for a very limited amount of time and it will
automatically shut-down.
For long lasting performance, we recommend that you use this inverter for appliances
requiring less than specified continuous power wattage.

How to Replace the Fuse
If the unit stops working, and you see a red LED light and/or you hear an audible beeping.
Then you will need to check to see if any of the fuses are working, and replace any blown
fuses if necessary.
PLEASE NOTE: In total, there are 2 x 40amp fuses
To check & replace the fuse, please follow the instructions below:
1. Locate the fuses as shown in the figure above. Use a suitable pair of tweezers to take
the fuse out so you can check/replace as necessary. Please note, you can check the
fuse size when you take out the fuse.
Fig. 1

After Use
After you have finished using the inverter (or when the inverter is not in use), turn off the unit and
make sure your vehicle’s fully switched off.
Then, turn the unit off and then disconnect the inverter from the 12V power supply. When discon-
necting from the battery, disconnect the negative cable first, followed by the positive cable.
Best Practices for Protecting Your 12V Battery
• To prevent your vehicle’s 12V battery from being depleted. We recommend running the engine for 10 to
20 minute to recharge the battery after using the inverter for 2 to 3 hours. Important: Before starting your
vehicle’s engine, please disconnect the inverter from your battery/power supply.
• When connecting the inverter to your battery’s terminals, it is important that you connect it via the correct
polarity (i.e. Connect + from inverter to + of battery terminal and connect – from inverter to – of battery
terminal) to prevent reverse polarity.
• When you are using the inverter and you hear a beeping sound coming from the inverter, this means your 12V
battery is low. To recharge, disconnect the inverter from your battery and turn on the engine for 2 to 3 hours.
• When charging your 12V battery using a battery charger, please disconnect the inverter.
Troubleshooting
What To Do When The Inverter Is Not Working
Troubleshoot/Problem Possible Cause Suggested Solution
No AC out - the green LED
light is not coming on
DC input is below 10V Recharge or replace the
battery
No AC output - the inverter
is cold
Poor connection with the
battery
Switch off vehicle & discon-
nect inverter from battery.
Then reconnect the inverter
to the battery, check to see
if the connection is correct.
Inverter shuts down after
using the unit for a long
time
Overheat Switch off vehicle & discon-
nect inverter from battery.
Allow the unit to cool down
for 15 mins before recon-
necting.
Inverter shuts down after
operating for a short time
Overload The appliance wattage
require may be too high
Red LED light &/or audible
beeping
Fuse could have been
blown
Check and replace the
fuse. See Replacing the
Fuse.
