Auto m a tic O ve rlo a d Built-in protection against overload — in the event the  
AC outlet draws more than 300 watts, power to the unit’s outlet will automatically  
shut off.  
Use a common household AC extension cord for charging (cord not supplied).  
For maximum battery life, we recommend the unit be kept fully charged at all times.  
If the battery is allowed to remain in a discharged state, battery life will be shortened.  
Gro un d Fa ult Circuit In te rrup te r (GFCI) — The GFCI protects the unit and the  
user by sensing imbalances in a circuit caused by current leakage to the ground  
and shuts down the units AC outlet to prevent electrical shock.  
• MAKE SURE ALL SWITCHES ARE TURNED OFF DURING RECHARGING.  
• Charge the unit for a full 24 hours using AC method before first use.  
Recharge the unit fully after each use.

battery power supply and a means to recharge those batteries. The Ele ctro m a te ™

3. AC Power Supply “ON” Status Indicator — green LED lights when AC outlet is  
turned on; green LED flashes on and off when faulted.  
The built-in 12 volt DC inflator is the ultimate inflator for all vehicle tires, trailer tires  
and recreational inflatables. Three different sized nozzles are supplied. Each nozzle  
clips on the end of the standard tire valve connector attached to the free end of the  
inflator hose. The inflator hose with tire fitting is stored in a retaining channel between  
the jumper cable channels on the rear of the unit. The ON/ OFF switch is located on  
the front of the unit. The inflator can operate long enough to fill up to 3 average sized  
tires before the battery must be recharged. The inflator may be used by removing the  
air hose from the storage hatch and, if required, fitting the appropriate nozzle to the  
air hose. Return the hose to the storage compartment after use.  
4. AC Power Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt (GFCI) — a 3-prong outlet for 120 volt  
AC appliances which shuts down inverter if leakage or ground fault current is  
detected.  
5. Internal protective circuits including:  
Overload and over-temperature shutdown (activated if AC output exceeds 300  
watts)  
AC short-circuit shutdown  
Low voltage shutdown  
A new cooling technology that more efficiently cools the power transistors and,  
combined with soft start, dramatically increases reliability and product life
