Before operating your AC appliance, ensure that the battery of the XPower Powerpack is fully charged. See “Recharging with the AC Charger” on page 13 for details.

To operate an AC appliance:

1.Open the protective covering on the right side of the XPower Powerpack. Turn the AC Outlet On/Off switch to the On position.
