Recharging with the AC Charger

\

CAUTION: Equipment damage or personal injury

Do not use XPower 1500 to operate any AC products or DC accessories while charging with the AC Charger. Do not use XPower 1500’s AC Charger to recharge nickel-cadmium or dry-cell batteries commonly used with home appliances and electronic equipment. These batteries may burst and cause personal injury or damage property. See the AC Charger Owner’s Guide enclosed for additional safety related information.

XPower 1500’s 5-amp AC Charger offers the convenience of “plug-in- and-forget” recharging. To use the AC Charger, follow these steps:

1.Disconnect any 12-volt DC accessories and turn the AC Outlets Switch off.

2.Plug the other end of the AC Charger into a standard 115-volt AC receptacle.

3.Insert the DC plug end into the DC Power Socket.

4.Switch the AC Charger ON. Switch is located on the AC Charger’s end panel.

5.As XPower 1500 charges, the Recharge Indicator on the AC Charger will illuminate amber. A full recharge will take up to 15 hours.

6.When fully charged, the Recharge Indicator on the AC Charger changes to green and XPower 1500 is ready to use.

7.Once XPower 1500 is fully charged, charging voltage and current automatically reduce to a low maintenance level and XPower 1500 may be left permanently connected to its AC Charger. Should your utility power be interrupted, the charging process will automatically restart when power returns.

8.If the Recharge Indicator on the AC Charger illuminates red, disconnect the AC Charger from the AC outlet and from XPower 1500 immediately. Red illumination indicates a short circuit condition in the output cable / DC plug (the section from the AC Charger to XPower 1500) or a possible defect in the DC Power Socket. Should this occur, contact Xantrex Customer Service for assistance. See Section 12 for details.
