Thank you for purchasing 75Watt Power Inverter by Wagan Tech. With normal
care and proper treatment it will provide years of reliable service. Please read all
operating instructions carefully before use.
Your 75 Watt Power Inverter converts 12-volt vehicle battery power into 115 volts
of AC power. You can use the inverter in your vehicle to operate many types of
appliances that use AC power such as TVs, VCRs, portable computers, power
tools, and lights for emergency or camping use.
The inverter works with your vehicle’s engine turned on or off (accessory mode).
It provides a continuous output of up to 75 watts.

household wall outlet.
•Do not open (no user-serviceable parts inside).
•Do not insert foreign objects into the outlet.
•Do not expose to water, rain, or snow.
•Do not connect to power utility AC distribution wiring.
•Failure to follow the above may result in personal injury or damage to the

MEASURING THE AC VOLTAGE
The output waveform of the AC inverter is a MODIFIEDSINEWAVE. To
measure the AC output voltage, you must use a TRUE RMS VOLTMETER.
SAFETY PRECAUTION
•Do not open the case of the inverter. The high voltage inside the unit is
the same type of power as your electrical outlets at home.
•Do not operate the inverter in or around water. The voltage of the unit
makes electrical shock hazard if operated in wet conditions.
•Do not connect the AC inverter directly to another AC power source.
•Keep it away from children, the inverter produces power just like your
AC wall outlets at home and should be treated seriously.
•If there is anything wrong with the inverter, disconnect all of the power.

MAINTENANCE
Very little maintenance is required to keep the inverter operating properly.
HEAT DISPERSAL
The inverter generates heat while it is working. This is not a malfunction.
However, if the inverter gets too hot while working, it will turn off by itself.
Position the inverter where air flows freely around it to allow the heat to disperse.
