Quick hoop-up and testing:

For a quick hook-up of the Dometic SI 1500 Sine Inverter to check its
performance before going ahead with installation, please follow these
guidelines:
3-4-1. Unpack and inspect the Inverter, check to see that the power
switch is in the OFF position.
CAUTION !
Reverse polarity connection will blow a fuse in inverter and
may permanently damage the inverter. Damage caused by
reverse polarity connection is not covered by warranty.
3-4-2. Connect proper cables with fuse (see table 1) to the power
input terminals on the rear panel of the inverter. First to the red
positive terminal (+) and then to the black negative terminal(-).
Tighten the cables securely.
WARNING !
Make sure the DC connections on the inverter are
tight (torque to 9-10 ft-lbs, 11.7-13Nm). Loose
connections will overheat and could result in a
potential hazard.
3-4-3. Connect the red cable coming from the positive terminal on the
inverter to the positive output on the battery or power source.
Before proceeding further, carefully check that cable you
have just connected ties the positive terminal of inverter
to the positive output terminal of battery or power source!
3-4-4. WARNING!
You may observe a spark when you make the next connection
since current may flow to charge capacitors in the inverter. Do
not make this connection in the presence of flammable fumes.
Explosion or fire may result. Continue: Connect the cable from
the negative terminal of the inverter to the negative terminal of
the battery or power source. Make a secure connection.
