Important Safety Instructions

1. Before installing and using the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus, read all

instructions and cautionary markings on the XPower Inverter 3000

Plus, the batteries, and all appropriate sections of this guide.

2. Do not expose the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus to rain, snow, spray, or

bilge water. To reduce risk of fire hazard, do not cover or obstruct the

ventilation openings. Do not install the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus in

a zero-clearance compartment. Overheating may result.

3. Use only attachments recommended or sold by the manufacturer.

Doing otherwise may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury

to persons.

4. To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that existing

wiring is in good condition and that wire is not undersized. Do not

operate the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus with damaged or substandard

wiring.

5. Do not operate the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus if it has received a

sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. If the

XPower Inverter 3000 Plus is damaged, see the Warranty section.

6. Do not disassemble the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus. It contains no

user-serviceable parts. See Warranty for instructions on obtaining

service. Attempting to service the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus

yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire. Internal

capacitors remain charged after all power is disconnected.

7. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both AC and DC

power from the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus before attempting any

maintenance or cleaning or working on any circuits connected to the

XPower Inverter 3000 Plus. Turning off controls will not reduce this

risk.

8. The XPower Inverter 3000 Plus must be provided with an equipment-

grounding conductor connected to the AC input ground.

WARNING

This chapter contains important safety and operating instructions. Read and keep

this Owner’s Guide for future reference.

Explosive gas precautions

1. Working in the vicinity of lead-acid batteries is dangerous. Batteries

generate explosive gases during normal operation. Therefore, you

must read this guide and follow the instructions exactly before

installing or using your XPower Inverter 3000 Plus.

2. This equipment contains components which tend to produce arcs or

sparks. To prevent fire or explosion, do not install the XPower

Inverter 3000 Plus in compartments containing batteries or flammable

materials, or in locations that require ignition-protected equipment.

This includes any space containing gasoline-powered machinery, fuel

tanks, as well as joints, fittings, or other connections between

components of the fuel system.

3. To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and

those published by the battery manufacturer and the manufacturer of

the equipment in which the battery is installed.

Precautions When Working With Batteries

1. Follow all instructions published by the battery manufacturer and the

manufacturer of the equipment in which the battery is installed.

2. Make sure the area around the battery is well ventilated.

3. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame near the engine or batteries.

4. Use caution to reduce the risk or dropping a metal tool on the battery.

It could spark or short circuit the battery or other electrical parts and

could cause an explosion.

5. Remove all metal items, like rings, bracelets, and watches when

working with lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid batteries produce a short

circuit current high enough to weld metal to skin, causing a severe

burn.

6. Have someone within range of your voice or close enough to come to

your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.

7. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid

contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.

8. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid

touching your eyes while working near batteries.

9. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap

and water. If acid enters your eye, immediately flood it with running

cold water for at least twenty minutes and get medical attention

immediately.

10. If you need to remove a battery, always remove the ground terminal

from the battery first. Make sure all accessories ar off so you don’t

cause a spark.

Precautions for Using Rechargeable Appliances

Most rechargeable battery-operated equipment uses a separate charger or

transformer that is plugged into an AC receptacle and produces a low

voltage charging output.

Some chargers for small rechargeable batteries can be damaged if

connected to the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus. Do not use the following

with the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus:

• Small battery-operated appliances like flashlights, razors, and night

lights that can be plugged directly into an AC receptacle to recharge.

• Some chargers for battery packs used in power hand tools. These

affected chargers display a warning label stating that dangerous

voltages are present at the battery terminals.

CAUTION: Equipment damage
