Connecting to an External Battery

3.Connect the black negative (–) clamp of the cables to the black negative (–) terminal of the external battery.

If the Red Boosting Connection LED illuminates and the Powerbox’s alarm sounds, then reverse polarity has been detected. Correct polarity must be established before proceeding. Disconnect the Boosting clamps from the vehicle’s battery and redo steps 2 and 3 in this procedure.

If no alarm sounds, and the Green Boosting Connection LED is illuminated, then proceed to the next step.

4.Switch ON the Boosting Power Switch.

To disconnect the cables from an external battery and from the XPower Powerpack:

1.Ensure that the Boosting Power Switch is OFF.

2.Remove the red positive (+) clamp, and then remove the black negative (–) clamp from the external battery terminals.

3.Store the boosting clamps in the appropriate holder on each side of the XPower Powerpack.

4.Recharge the XPower Powerpack as soon as possible after use.

CAUTION

Do not recharge the XPower Powerpack when an external battery is connected. The AC charger may be damaged.
