The unit will shut down automatically if the inverter exceeds a
safe operating temperature due to insufficient ventilation or
a high-temperature environment; and the red LED lights.

Battery operating time

Operating time will vary depending on the charge level of
the battery, its capacity and the power level drawn by the
particular AC load. With a typical vehicle battery and a
100-watt load, an operating time of 4 or 5 hours or more
can be expected.
When using a vehicle battery as a power source, it is strongly
recommended to start the vehicle every one hour or two to
recharge the battery before its capacity drops too low. The
inverter can operate while the engine is running, but the
normal voltage drop that occurs during starting of the engine
may trigger the inverter's low voltage shutdown feature.
Because the power inverter draws less than 0.45A with
its turning on and with no AC product connected, it has
minimal impact on battery operating times.

Interference with electronic equipment

Generally, most AC products operate with the inverter just
as they would be with household AC power. Below is the
information concerning two possible exceptions.
Buzzing and in audio systems and radios
Some stereo systems and AM-FM radios have inadequate
internal power supply filtering and "buzz" slightly when
powered by the inverter. Generally, the only solution is an
audio product with a higher quality filter.

Television interference

The inverter is shielded to minimize its interference with TV
signals. However, with weak TV signals interference may be
visible in the form of lines scrolling across the screen.
The following should minimize or eliminate the problem:
f Increase the distance between the inverter
and the TV, antenna and cables.
f Adjust the orientation of the inverter television,
antenna and cables.
f Maximize TV signal strength by using a better antenna
and use shielded antenna cable where possible.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

Separate collection. This product must not be
disposed of with normal household waste.
Should you find one day that your Black & Decker
product needs replacement, or if it is of no further
use to you, do not dispose of it with household waste.
Make this product available for separate collection.
Separate collection of used products and packaging
allows materials to be recycled and used again.
Re-use of recycled materials helps prevent
environmental pollution and reduces the demand
for raw materials. Local regulations may provide for
separate collection of electrical products from the
household, at municipal waste sites or by the
retailer when you purchase a new product.
