power source delivers optimum performance.
-OR-
DC power outlet connect: Use ONLY the supplied DC power outlet cable to connect
thru any standard 12V power outlet(20A minimum) or “cigarette lighter connection” in
your vehicle. This power source is very convenient, but sacrices some cooking speed.
NOTE: A SPARK MAY OCCUR WHEN CONNECTING THIS MICROWAVE TO
A POWER SOURCE. THIS IS A NORMAL PHENOMENON AND DOES NOT
INDICATEA DEFECTIVE APPLIANCE.

time. It will not operate. After connecting your WaveBox® to a single power source, the
unit will beep to let you know it is ready for use, displaying zeros in the display window.
The WaveBox® is now ready for operation.
NOTE:For DC operation be sure to maintain correct polarity.The WaveBox will not
operate with reverse polarity.To rectify,simply connect using correct polarity.Red alligator
clip to positive (+)battery post,and Black alligator clip to negative(-)battery post.
Some foreign cars and trucks employ a positive ground design.The WaveBox will
not operate using a positive ground connection.If in doubt,consult with your vehicle's
dealership.
When connecting to an automobile,small truck, boat or van,the engine should be running
in order to prevent discharge of the battery to a point where the vehicle will not start.

Cooking Times
Cooking times in both AC and DC direct connect mode are
excellent.
Some cooking speed is sacrificed when using DC power outlet
mode due to the wiring ratings of most automobiles and boats. DC
power outlet mode requires power outlet amperage of 20 amps or
greater. See the “fuses chart” in your vehicle’s owners manual to
determine the amperage of your power outlet system.
Sample cooking times (minutes):
AC DC direct DC outlet
Pizza 2:00 2:00 4:00
Coffee 3:00 3:00 6:00
Popcorn 6:00 6:00 n/a
