Important Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT: Read and save this Owner’s Guide for

future reference.

This chapter contains important safety instructions for the XPower

Inverter 5000.

1. Before using the XPower Inverter 5000, READ ALL instructions and

cautionary markings on or provided with the XPower Inverter 5000,

the batteries, and all appropriate sections of this guide.

2. DO NOT OPERATE this product unless it has been installed by a

qualified installer in accordance with the XPower Inverter 5000

Installation Guide.

3. Do not expose the XPower Inverter 5000 to rain, snow, spray, or bilge

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

ventilation openings. Overheating may result.

4. To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that wiring is in

good condition, adequately rated, and not undersized. Do not operate

the XPower Inverter 5000 with damaged or substandard wiring.

5. Do not operate the XPower Inverter 5000 if it has received a sharp

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

Inverter 5000 is damaged, see the Warranty section.

6. Do not disassemble the XPower Inverter 5000. It contains no user-

serviceable parts. See Warranty for instructions on obtaining service.

Attempting to service the XPower Inverter 5000 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 DC power from the

XPower Inverter 5000 before attempting any maintenance or cleaning

or working on any circuits connected to the XPower Inverter 5000.

Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.

WARNING: Shock, fire, and heat hazard. Risk of

injury to persons.

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 to

reduce the risk of battery explosion.

2. 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 5000.

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

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

Inverter 5000 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.

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

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

6. 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.

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

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

cause a spark.

8. 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.

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

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

WARNING: Explosion or fire hazard

WARNING: Risk of personal injury due to burns or

battery acid

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

contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.

11. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid

touching your eyes while working near batteries.

12. 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.

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 5000. Do not use the following with the

XPower Inverter 5000:

• 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: Risk of equipment damage

The output of the XPower Inverter 5000 is not sinusoidal and may not be

compatible with all loads. Follow the recommendations below.
