5. Setup and Installation
Proper installation is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of your inverter.
5.1 Connecting to a 12V DC Power Source
- Ensure the inverter's power switch is in the OFF position.
- Connect the red battery cable to the positive (+) terminal of your 12V DC battery.
- Connect the other end of the red cable to the positive (+) terminal on the inverter.
- Connect the black battery cable to the negative (-) terminal of your 12V DC battery.
- Connect the other end of the black cable to the negative (-) terminal on the inverter.
- Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent arcing or overheating.
Important: Always connect the inverter to a 12V DC battery. Connecting to a 24V or higher voltage source will damage the inverter.
5.2 Ventilation and Placement
- Place the inverter on a flat, stable surface.
- Ensure there is at least 6 inches (15 cm) of clear space around the inverter for proper airflow.
- Avoid placing the inverter in direct sunlight or near heat sources.
5.3 Optional: Solar Panel Connection
The inverter can be integrated into a solar power system. This typically involves connecting solar panels to a charge controller, which then charges a 12V deep cycle battery. The inverter then draws power from this battery.

6. Operating Instructions
Follow these steps to operate your JARXIOKE power inverter.
6.1 Powering On the Inverter
- After ensuring all DC connections are secure, press the power switch on the inverter to the ON position.
- The LED display will illuminate, showing the input voltage, output voltage, and other status indicators.
6.2 Connecting AC Devices
- Plug your 110V/120V AC devices into the AC outlets on the front panel of the inverter.
- Ensure the total wattage of all connected devices does not exceed the inverter's continuous power rating (3000W).
- For devices with high starting current (e.g., motors, compressors), ensure their surge wattage is within the inverter's peak capacity (6000W).
6.3 Using the USB Port
Plug your USB-powered devices into the 3.4A USB port for charging.
6.4 Remote Control Operation
The included remote control allows you to turn the inverter ON/OFF from a distance (up to 100 meters).
- Ensure the inverter's main power switch is in the OFF position before attempting to use the remote to turn it ON.
- Press the 'ON' button on the remote to activate the inverter.
- Press the 'OFF' button on the remote to deactivate the inverter.
