Giandel Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter 300W User Manual
Model: PS-300B CAR
1. Introduction
This user manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation of your Giandel 300W Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter. This device converts 12V DC power from your vehicle's battery into 120V AC household power, suitable for a wide range of electronic devices. It features multiple charging ports, including Type-C PD30W and QC3.0 USB, along with two standard AC outlets.

2. Safety Information
Please read and understand all safety instructions before operating the inverter. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
- Important Note: If your car cigarette socket is equipped with a 15 Amp fuse, do not power devices exceeding 150 Watts. Exceeding this limit can blow the fuse or damage the vehicle's electrical system.
- Ensure proper ventilation around the inverter. Do not block cooling vents.
- Keep the inverter away from water, moisture, and flammable materials.
- Do not open the inverter casing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
- Disconnect the inverter from the power source when not in use.
- This inverter is designed for 12V DC input only. Do not connect to 24V DC or higher voltage sources.
- Avoid connecting loads that exceed the inverter's continuous power rating (300W) or peak power rating (600W).

3. Setup
- Vehicle Compatibility: Ensure your vehicle provides a 12V DC cigarette lighter socket.
- Placement: Place the inverter in a stable, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and moisture. Ensure the cooling fan vents are unobstructed.
- Connection: Insert the inverter's cigarette lighter plug firmly into your vehicle's 12V DC accessory socket.
- Power Off: Before connecting any devices, ensure the inverter's power switch is in the "OFF" position.

4. Operating Instructions
- Powering On: After connecting the inverter to your vehicle's 12V DC socket, switch the inverter's power button to the "ON" position. The green "POWER" indicator light will illuminate.
- Connecting AC Devices: Plug your 120V AC devices into the two standard AC outlets on the inverter. Ensure the total wattage of connected devices does not exceed 300 Watts continuous power.
- Using USB Charging Ports:
- QC3.0 USB Port: For fast charging compatible devices.
- Type-C PD30W Port: For fast charging compatible devices, delivering up to 30W.
- The inverter automatically detects your devices to deliver the fastest charge speed.
- Pure Sine Wave Output: This inverter produces a pure sine wave output, which is ideal for sensitive electronics like laptops, medical equipment (e.g., CPAP machines), and audio/video equipment, ensuring stable and clean power.
- Powering Off: When finished, switch the inverter's power button to the "OFF" position and then disconnect it from the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket.

5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the exterior of the inverter. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Ventilation: Regularly check that the cooling vents are free from dust and debris to ensure proper airflow.
- Fuse Replacement: The inverter features a replaceable fuse for protection. If the inverter stops working, check your vehicle's cigarette lighter fuse first. If the inverter's internal fuse needs replacement, consult a qualified technician or contact Giandel customer support.
