Operating AC Appliances

Operating Several Appliances at Once

You can run several AC appliances if the total rating of all the appliances (in watts) does not exceed 240 W. Run time, however, will decrease accordingly with the number of appliances being operated and the AC power being consumed.

Operating an AC Appliance

Before operating your AC appliance, ensure that the battery of the XPower Powerpack is fully charged. See “Recharging with the AC Charger” on page 11 for details.

To operate an AC appliance:

1.Turn the AC Power On/Off Switch to the ON position.

The switch illuminates to indicate AC power is available at the AC power outlets.

2.Remove the protective cover on the AC power outlets.

3.Plug the AC appliance into an AC power outlet and turn the appliance on. XPower Powerpack will operate most devices rated up to 240 W.

4.Recharge the XPower Powerpack as soon as possible after each use.

When using the XPower Powerpack to operate an AC appliance and the low battery warning sounds, the warning gives you time to shut your AC appliance off before loss of AC power.

If you ignore the warning, the XPower Powerpack automatically turns off a few minutes later to prevent battery damage.

In the event of an overload, low battery voltage or overheating, the XPower Powerpack automatically shuts down.
