light: There is an anomaly, e.g. dis-
connection due t
o a curr
ent
surge or overheating. Disconnection due to overheating
When the t
emper

ature exceeds a certain val-
ue, the 230 volt socket inverter is automati-
cally disconnected. The disconnection pre-
vents overheating when the power consump-
tion of the connected devices is excessive or
the ambient temperature is very high. The
230-volt power supply can be used once
again after a cooling time. First unplug the
connector of the connected device and then
plug it back in again. This prevents the elec-
trical device from being switched on again if
this is not wanted. WARNING
The electrical system is under high voltage!
