About COLEMAN® Inverters  
4
The new line of super-efficient COLEMAN® power inverters are innovative in  
design and have the highest surge capability in the industry.These extremely  
advanced, microprocessor controlled units run cooler and more reliable than  
any in their class.Their superior surge capability allows them to start even  
the most difficult loads, including color televisions,TV/VCR combinations,  
microwaves, refrigeration units, even small air conditioners!They also sport  
the highest efficiency available (up to 80%) which translates into longer running  
time and extended battery life. Inverters convert low voltage, direct current (DC)  
to 110/120-volt alternating current (AC). Depending on the model and its rated  
capacity, the inverters draw power either from standard 12-volt automobile and  
marine batteries or from portable high power 12-volt sources.

Getting Started  
When you turn on an appliance or a tool that operates using a motor or a tube,  
(such as a television), it requires an initial surge of power to start up.This surge  
of power is referred to as the “starting load” or “peak load.  
Once started, the appliance or tool requires less power to continue to operate.  
This is referred to as the “continuous load.You will need to determine how  
much power your appliance or tool requires to start up (peak power) and its  
continued operating power requirements (continuous load). Power consumption  
is rated either wattage (watts) or amperes (amps).This information is usually  
stamped or printed on most appliances and equipment. If this information is  
not indicated on the actual product, check the owners appliance or equipment,  
check the owners manual or contact the manufacturer to determine the power  
consumption. Be sure that the power consumption of the item you wish to  
operate is rated at 200 watts or less.  
9
Multiply: AMPS X 110/120 (AC voltage) = WATTS  
This formula yields a close approximation of the continuous load of the  
appliance. All COLEMAN® inverters are designed to automatically shut down in  
the event of a power overload. This protection feature prevents damage to the  
unit while testing items with ratings in the 200-watt range.

CAUTION  
Source of Power  
The inverter is designed to operate from a 12-volt power source only.The unit  
will not operate from a 6-volt battery or a 24-volt battery. Do not attempt  
to connect the inverter to any other power nominal output voltage  
other than 12 volts or damage to the unit may occur. Any damage  
to the unit that occurs from operating the inverter from any power  
source greater than or less than 12 volts will automatically void the  
warranty.  
Most automobile and marine batteries will provide an ample power supply to  
the inverter for 30 to 60 minutes even when the engine is turned off. Actual time  
may vary depending on the age and condition of the battery and the power  
demand being placed on it by the equipment being operated.  
If you decide to use the inverter while the engine is off, we recommend that  
you start the engine every 30 to 60 minutes and let it run for approximately 10  
minutes to recharge the battery. It is also recommended that the device plugged  
into the inverter be turned OFF before starting the vehicle engine.  
• Do not attempt to extend or otherwise modify the 12-volt power cord attached  
to the inverter.  
Although it is not necessary to disconnect the inverter when starting the vehicle  
engine, it may momentarily cease to operate as the battery voltage decreases.  
When the inverter is not supplying power, it draws very low amperage from the  
battery. It is recommend that the inverter always be disconnected when not in  
use.  
110/120 volts can inflict serious injury, damage or death. Improper use of the  
inverter may result in property damage, personal injury or loss of life.  
Connecting the Inverter  
The inverter is equipped with a fused 12-volt power cord for connection to the  
power source.  
Blown Automotive Fuses  
Depending on the make and model of your automobile, running the power  
inverter near full capacity from your cigarette lighter socket may result in a  
blown automotive cigarette lighter fuse.This fuse will need to be replaced with  
the same type and size fuse. A blown automotive cigarette lighter fuse will not  
cause damage to your vehicle wiring.  
1. Make sure that the ON/OFF power switch located on the front panel of  
inverter is in the OFF(O) position.  
2. Connect the inverter to the power source by inserting the 12-volt power cord  
firmly into the cigarette lighter socket of your vehicle or other 12-volt DC  
power source.  
3.Turn the inverter power switch to the ON(-) position.The GREEN LED Indicator  
Light should illuminate to confirm that power is running to the inverter.  
Blown Inverter Fuses  
Your power inverter is equipped with a 25-amp spade type fuse. With  
reasonable care, it should not be necessary to replace this fuse. In general,  
most blown fuses are the result of reverse polarity hook up of the inverter to a  
12-volt power source (positive to negative and/ or negative to positive). If the  
fuse happens to blow, disconnect the appliance or equipment from the inverter  
immediately. Find the source of the problem, repair it and then install a new  
fuse of the same type and size located on the rear panel of the inverter.  
4. Make sure that the device you intend to operate is turned OFF. Plug the cord  
from the equipment into the AC outlet located on the front panel of the  
inverter.  
5.Turn the inverter power switch to the ON(-) position; then turn the  
equipment ON.  
Note  
Notes  
Always disconnect the power inverter from the 12-volt power source and make  
sure the inverter is turned OFF before replacing the fuse.  
The audible alarm may make a momentary “chirp” when the inverter is turned  
ON (-) or OFF(O).This same alarm may also sound when the inverter is being  
connected to or disconnected from the 12-volt power source.This is normal.  
Safety and Usage Precautions  
• If the GREEN LED Indicator Light blinks when you first turn the inverter ON(-),  
this may indicate an interruption of the power supply. Simply turn the inverter  
OFF(O) and remove the 12-volt power cord from the cigarette lighter socket (or  
other 12-volt power source). Firmly re-insert the 12-volt power cord, then turn  
the inverter ON(-) again. If this does not fix the problem, try using a different  
12-volt power source or check the cigarette lighter fuse.  
• For best operating results, place the inverter on a flat surface.  
• Keep the inverter dry. Do not expose the inverter to rain or moisture.  
• DO NOT operate the inverter if you, the inverter, the device being operated, or  
any surface that may come into contact with the inverter are wet. Water and  
other liquids can conduct electricity, which may lead to serious injury or death.

• Avoid placing the inverter on or near heating vents, radiators or other  
sources of heat. Do not place or use the inverter in direct sunlight. Ideal air  
temperatures should be between 50°F and 80°F.  
Television and Audio Suggestions  
Although all COLEMAN® inverters are shielded and filtered to minimize  
signal interference, some interference with your television picture may be  
unavoidable, especially with weak signals. However, here are some suggestions  
that may improve reception:  
• In order to properly disperse the heat generated from the inverter while it is  
operating, keep the inverter well ventilated. Keep the area surrounding the  
inverter clear while in use.  
• Make sure the television antenna produces a clear signal under normal  
operating conditions (at home plugged into a standard 110/120- volt AC  
outlet). Also, ensure that the antenna cable is properly shielded and/or good  
quality.  
• Do not use the inverter near flammable materials. Do not place the inverter in  
areas such as battery compartments where fumes or gases may accumulate.  
• Change the positions of the inverter, antenna cables and the television power  
cord.  
Inverter Protection Features  
• Short Circuit Protection.The inverter will automatically shut down until  
short is removed.  
• Isolate the television, its power cord and antenna cables from the 12-volt  
power source by running an extension cord from the inverter to the television  
set.  
• Low Voltage Alarm. An alarm will sound when the voltage from the battery  
discharges to 10.5 +/- 0.5 volts DC.This is an indication that the battery needs  
to be recharged.  
• Coil the television power cord and the input cables running from the 12-volt  
power source to the inverter.  
• Over Voltage Protection.The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and  
the inverter will automatically turn itself off when the input exceeds 16.5 +/- 1  
volt DC.  
• Attach an AC interference filter or similar product between the inverter and  
the television power cord.These filters are available at most electronic supply  
stores including Radio Shack.  
• Under Voltage Protection. The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and  
the inverter will automatically turn itself off when the input is less than 10.0+/-  
0.5 volts DC.  
Note  
Inexpensive sound systems may emit a “buzzing” sound when operated with  
an inverter.This is due to the inadequate filters in the sound system.There is  
no solution to this problem other than purchasing a sound system with a higher  
quality power supply.  
• Overload Protection.The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and  
the inverter will automatically turn itself off when the continuous draw of  
the equipment being operated exceeds 200 watts or the surge draw of the  
equipment exceeds 400 watts.  
Thermal Protection. The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and the  
inverter will automatically turn itself off when the circuit temperature exceeds  
130°F.  
How Power Inverters Work  
Power inverters convert low voltage DC (direct current) power to 110/120-volt  
AC (alternating current) household power.This conversion process thereby  
allows you to use household products, power tools, and other electronic  
products away from normal AC power sources (standard 110/120V wall outlets).  
Notes  
The inverter is equipped with a cooling fan, which is designed to run  
continuously while the inverter is operating. Automatic shut down of the unit  
caused by high circuit temperatures will occur when the cooling fan is unable  
to maintain a cool enough temperature for safe operation.  
Depending on the model and its rated capacity, inverters can draw power  
either from standard 12-volt automobile and marine batteries or from portable  
high power 12-volt power sources.The waveform that is generated by this  
conversion is a “modified sine wave.The modified sine wave produced by our  
inverters has a root square mean (RMS) voltage of 110/120 volts, which is the  
same as standard household power.  
• In the event of automatic shut down or a continuous audible alarm, turn the  
inverter power switch to the OFF(O) position until the source of the problem  
has been determined and resolved.  
The majority of AC voltmeters are calibrated for RMS voltage under the  
assumption that the measured waveform will be a pure sine wave.Therefore,  
these meters will not read the RMS modified sine wave voltage correctly.

They will read about 20 to 30 volts too low.To accurately measure the output  
voltage of the inverter, use a true RMS reading voltmeter such as a Fluke 87,  
Fluke 8060A, Beckman 4410,Triplett 4200 or any voltmeter identified as a “true  
RMS” modified sine wave.
