Please read and understand all of the information provided in this manual before operating or installing. If properly used, the inverter will give you years of reliable service providing AC power for TVs, computers, appliances, stereos and power tools. For safe and optimum performance, the inverter must be installed and used properly. Carefully read and follow the guidelines in this manual giving special attention to the CAUTION and WARNING statements. Keep this manual for reference should troubleshooting be necessary. CAUTION statements provide information that could damage your inverter or equipment connected to it. WARNING statements provide information on conditions that could result in personal injury or loss of life. WARNING: Incorrect installation or misuse of the RPPD1500 could result in personal injury or damage to the inverter and/or attached equipment. Read and follow the directions in the owner’s manual. The ROADPRO RPPD1500 produces the same potentially lethal AC power as normal household outlets. It is suggested that you treat it with the same respect that you would any AC outlet. WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD, KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN. DO NOT insert any foreign objects into the RPPD1500’s outlets, vents or fan openings. DO NOT expose the RPPD1500 to rain, water or any other liquids. DO NOT connect the RPPD1500 to utility power distribution systems or branch circuits. WARNING: HEATED CASE AND SURFACE. The case to the RPPD1500 may become very warm under high power operation reaching 140°F. Be sure that there is at least 4 inches of unobstructed air space around the entire surface of the inverter at all times. During use, DO NOT place materials that could be damaged by heat on or near the RPPD1500. WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD. DO NOT operate the RPPD1500 near flammable fumes or gases such as the bilge of a gasoline power boat, or near propane tanks. DO NOT operate the RPPD1500 in an enclosed area that contains automotive type lead-acid batteries. This type of battery emits explosive hydrogen gas which can be ignited by sparks. CAUTION: DO NOT connect the RPPD1500 to live AC power circuits. Damage to the inverter will result even if the power switch is in the OFF position. DO NOT connect any AC device which has its neutral conductor connected to ground. DO NOT expose the RPPD1500 to air temperatures in excess of 104°F. DO NOT use the RPPD1500 on the following items: 1. Small battery-operated appliances such as flashlights, razors and nightlights that can be plugged directly into an AC outlet to recharge. 2. Certain battery chargers for battery packs used in hand power tools. These chargers will have a “Warning Label” indicating that dangerous voltages are present at the battery terminals. RPPD1500 Waveform Output: The output waveform of your RPPD1500 is referred to as “square wave” or “modified sine wave.” Some very sensitive electronic equipment and some medical equipment (listed below) may not operate satisfactorily on “square wave” or “modified sine wave.” It is a stepped waveform designed to have characteristics similar to the pure sine wave shape of utility power. A waveform of this nature is suitable for most AC loads (including linear and switching power suppliers used in electronic equipment, transformers and motors). The problems described above, do not occur with most battery-operated equipment. The vast majority of these items use a separate charger or transformer that plugs into the AC outlet and produces a low voltage output. If the label on your adapter states that it produces a low voltage (AC or DC) output (30 volts or less) then the RPPD1500 will operate the item safely. Some of the following items may not operate properly on a “square wave” inverter. If you have any questions, contact the device’s manufacturer. • Laser printers, photocopiers, magneto-optical hard drives. • Certain laptop computers. • Some fluorescent lights with electronic ballasts. • Power tools employing “solid state” power or variable speed control. • Some battery chargers for cordless tools. • Digital clocks with radios. • Medical equipment such as oxygen concentrators, nebulizers, and CPAP machines. INSTALLATION: Selecting a suitable location The RPPD1500 must be installed in an area that meets the following requirements in order to operate safely and provide optimum performance: 1. DRY: DO NOT expose the unit to moisture. 2. COOL: Ambient air temperature should be between 32°F and 104°F. Cooler areas are best. 3. VENTILATION: Allow at least 4 inches of clearance above and around all sides and top of the unit for proper cooling. 4. SAFE: DO NOT install the RPPD1500 in a compartment with batteries or flammable liquids or vapors such as gasoline or propane. 5. CLEAN: DO NOT install the RPPD1500 in an area that is prone to dirt, dust or debris. This is especially important if used in a work environment.
