1.Represents actual power consumption as measured on sample appliances.

2.Operating times assume a fully charged battery and may very based on model or brand of appliance.

To operate a 12 volt DC appliance:

1.Plug the 12 volt DC appliance into the DC power socket on the right side of the unit, and turn the 12 volt DC appliance on (if required).

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

2.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 volt DC appliance may result in excessive battery discharge. See Caution for “Equipment damage” on page 17.
