6. e typical vehicle battery has a minimum operating time of 1 to 2 hours depending on the current use of the load being driven We recommend that the operator start the vehicle every hour to recharge the battery system This will prevent unexpected shut downs of equipment and will ensure that there is always sufficient battery capacity to start the engine Your inverter circuitry constantly monitors the following hazardous conditions A Low Battery Voltage This condition is not harmful to the inverter but could damage the power source An audible alarm is sounded when input voltage drops to 11 volts The inverter shuts down when input voltage drops to 10 0 volts When the condition is corrected i e alternator charges battery the unit may be restarted B Short Circuit Reverse polarity or short circuit condition of the load will usually result in operating of the short circuit protection Immediately disconnect the shorted circuit load and please check which problem could originate those conditions before using the inverter again Several and repeated short circuit or reverse polarity conditions may damage the unit C High Temperature When the temperature of the internal heat sinks reaches 150 degrees F the 4 solid state temperature sensor located in the inverter circuit will automatically shut down the unit Once it is allowed to get cool again it may be restarted Again please check which problem could originate that condition be
