CPSC campaign 11099

Hazard

A component of the inverter can degrade, causing out gassing within the wiring compartment of the inverter. When arcing occurs, gasses could build and force the compartment cover to be blown off. If the cover is blown off with sufficient force it can injure the user or person, or cause damage to property in close proximity to the inverter.

Remedy

Consumers should immediately contact their authorized dealer to set up an appointment to get a free repair of the inverter.
