Operating 12 V DC Appliances

To operate a 12 V DC appliance:

1.Open the protective cover on the left side of the XPower Powerpack.

2.Plug the 12 V DC appliance into the DC power socket on the left side of the unit, and turn the 12 V DC appliance on (if required).

If the 12 V DC appliance draws more than 12 A (or has a short-circuit defect), the internal circuit breaker of the XPower Powerpack shuts off the power to the 12 V DC appliance. If this occurs, unplug the 12 V DC appliance, and the internal circuit breaker automatically resets after a few seconds.

3.Fully recharge the XPower Powerpack as soon as possible after each use.

As the DC power socket is internally wired directly to the internal battery, extended operation of a 12 V DC appliance may result in excessive battery discharge. See Caution for “Equipment damage” on page 18.
