IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Before using your Power Inverter 140, read and understand

this Owner’s Manual.

• Keep the inverter well ventilated in order to properly dis-

perse heat generated while it is in use. Make sure there

are several inches of clearance around the top and sides

and do not block the slots of the inverter.

• Make sure the inverter is not close to any potential source

of inammable fumes, gases or clothing.

• Keep the inverter dry.

• DO NOT allow it to come into contact with rain or moisture.

WARRANTY

One-Year Full Warranty on DieHard Power Inverter 140

If this Power Inverter 140 fails due to a defect in material or work-

manship within one year from the date of purchase, RETURN

IT TO ANY SEARS STORE or OTHER DIEHARD OUTLET IN

THE UNITED STATES FOR FREE REPLACEMENT.

This warranty gives you specic legal rights, and you may

also have other rights which vary from state to state.

• DO NOT operate the inverter if you, the inverter, the device

being operated or any other surfaces that may come in

contact with any power source are wet. Water and many

other liquids can conduct electricity, which may lead to

serious injury.

• Do not place the inverter on or near heating vents, radia-

tors or other sources of heat.

• Do not place the inverter in direct sunlight. The ideal air

temperature for operation is between 50° and 80°F.

• Do not use near open engine compartment.

• Only connect the power inverter to a 12-volt battery acces-

sory outlet. Make sure the AC plug connection is tight.

• Do not modify the AC receptacle in any way.

• Use only 15-amp fuses.

BEFORE USING POWER INVERTER 140

It is important to know the continuous wattage of the device

you plan to use with the inverter. The Power Inverter 140

must be used with devices drawing 140 watts or less. If the

wattage is not marked on the device, an estimate can be

made by multiplying the AC input current (Amps) by the AC

voltage (110V).

Devices like TVs, fans or electric motors require additional

power to start (commonly known as the “starting or peak

power”). The Power Inverter 140 can supply a momentary

surge in wattage; however even devices rated less than the

maximum 140 watts can exceed the inverters surge capabil-

ity and cause an automatic overload shutdown.

Make sure the device you are using is compatible with a

modied sine wave inverter.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Push the Power Inverter 140 firmly into the 12V

accessory outlet. The LED indicator light should glow

GREEN verifying the inverter is receiving power. (If

connecting in a vehicle, remove the cigarette lighter from

its outlet.)

2. Make sure that the device to be operated is turned

OFF.

3. Plug the device into the Power Inverter 140 AC outlet.

4. Turn the device on. If the LED Indicator briey blinks

when you rst plug the inverter in, it is a sign that there

is a short circuit within the power supply. Remove the

12-volt plug from the 12-volt accessory outlet. Firmly

reinsert the plug. If this does not remedy the problem,

try using a different 12-volt accessory power outlet.

NOTE: A ‘’buzzing’’ sound emitted from inexpensive

sound systems is the result of ineffective lters in the

sound system. This can be resolved by purchasing a

sound system with a higher quality power supply or

higher quality lter.

POWER SOURCE

Your average automobile or marine battery at full charge

will provide an ample power supply to the inverter for ap-

proximately 3 hours when the engine is off. The actual length

of time the inverter will function depends on the age and

condition of the battery and the power demand being placed

by the device being operated with the inverter.

Turn OFF the device plugged into the inverter before start-

ing the engine. To maintain battery power, run the engine

every 2 to 3 hours for approximately 10 minutes to recharge

the battery. While the Power Inverter 140 draws very low

amperage when not in use and it should be unplugged to

avoid battery drain.

USAGE EXAMPLES

Device Type Estimate Wattage

Cell Phones, MP 3 Players 10 watts

Portable CD 50 watts

Laptop Computers 90 watts

Video Games 100 watts

LED INDICATOR AND OVERLOAD PROTECTION

The LED glows GREEN automatically when plugged into

a 12V DC source and will not glow under the following

conditions:

1. When the power input from the vehicle’s battery drops

to approximately 10 volts, low battery shutdown occurs

and inverter shuts off.

2. When the power input the vehicle’s battery exceeds 15

volts, high voltage overload protections occurs.

3. The continuous load demand from the equipment or

device being operated exceeds 140 watts.

4. The case temperature become hot (exceeds 145°F).

Reset:

To reset after shutdown occurs, check the source of the

problem and correct. Reinsert the inverter into the 12V ac-

cessory outlet.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM: Low or No Output Voltage

Reason/Solution

1. Poor contact at terminals.

Unplug and reinsert Power Inverter 140.

2. Equipment being operated is drawing too much

power.

Use a higher capacity inverter or do not use the

device.

3. Inverter is too hot (thermal shut down).

Allow inverter to cool. Check for adequate ventila-

tion. Reduced the load on the inverter to rated

continuous power output.

4. Fuse blows

A blown fuse is usually caused by reverse polarity

or a short circuit within the device being operated.

To replace:

• Disconnect the device immediately.

• Find the source of the problem, and repair it.

• Install a new 15-amp fuse. Do not tighten the fuse

cap too far; nger tight is sufcient.

NOTE: Installing a fuse higher than 15-amps may

cause damage to the inverter.

5. Inverter may be defective.

Call 1-800-SEARS-64 (1-800-732-7764) for trouble-

shooting assistance, or return it to any Sears store

or other DieHard outlet in the United States for a

free replacement.
