WARNING: Fire or explosion

The XPower Powerpack contains components that tend to produce arcs or sparks. To prevent fire or explosion, do not operate the XPower Powerpack in compartments containing batteries or flammable materials, or in locations that require ignition-protected equipment.

The XPower Powerpack should be operated only in locations that meet these requirements:

:

Dry

Cool

Ventilated

Safe

Protected from battery gases

Do not allow water or other liquids to drop or splash on the XPower Powerpack.

Ambient air temperature should be between 32 and 104ºF (0 and 40ºC)—the cooler the better within this range.

Leave at least 2" (5 cm) clearance around the XPower Powerpack for air flow. Ensure that the ventilation openings are not obstructed.

Do not operate the unit in the same compartment as batteries or in any compartment capable of storing flammable liquids like gasoline.

Do not operate the unit where it will be exposed to battery gases. These gases are very corrosive, and prolonged exposure will damage the XPower Powerpack.
