Precautions for Using Rechargeable Appliances

CAUTION: Risk of equipment damage

The output of the XPower Inverter 5000 is not sinusoidal and may not be compatible with all loads. Follow the recommendations below.

Most rechargeable battery-operated equipment uses a separate charger or transformer that is plugged into an AC receptacle and produces a low voltage charging output.

Some chargers for small rechargeable batteries can be damaged if connected to the XPower Inverter 5000. Do not use the following with the XPower Inverter 5000:

•Small battery-operated appliances like flashlights, razors, and night lights that can be plugged directly into an AC receptacle to recharge.

•Some chargers for battery packs used in power hand tools. These affected chargers display a warning label stating that dangerous voltages are present at the battery terminals.
