Recharging the XPower Powerpack Battery
29
To recharge with the AC charger:
1. Disconnect any 12 V DC appliances from the DC power
outlets.
2. Disconnect any AC products from the XPower
Powerpack and turn the AC Power ON/OFF switch to OFF.
3. Insert the AC charger cable end into the AC charger input
socket located under the red jump-starting clamp.
4. Plug the AC charger into a standard AC wall outlet.
5. While the XPower Powerpack is recharging, the Battery
Status LED is red. If the XPower Powerpack is
completely discharged, a typical recharge may take up to
24 hours. When fully charged, the Battery Status LED
changes to green and the XPower Powerpack is ready to
use.
Once the XPower Powerpack is fully charged, the charging
voltage and current automatically reduces to a maintenance
level and the XPower Powerpack may be left permanently
connected to the AC charger. If your utility power is
interrupted, the charging process automatically restarts when
power returns.
CAUTION
Do not operate AC or DC appliances with the XPower Powerpack
while the XPower Powerpack is being recharged with the AC
charger.
The AC charger may be permanently damaged if AC appliances or
12 V DC appliances are operated while the AC charger is
connected.
Important: The 24-hour charging time for the XPower
Powerpack assumes that there is 120V at the AC wall outlet. If
the voltage is less than 120 V AC, it may take more than 24 hours
to fully recharge the XPower Powerpack. If, after 24 hours of
charging, the Battery Status LED is still red, continue to charge
the unit for another 12 hours. The XPower Powerpack will be
ready for use even if the Battery Status LED remains red.
