xPower600 Owner’s Manual

3. Because the DC Power Socket is internally wired direct to

xPower600’s battery, extended operation of a 12 Volt accessory

may result in excessive battery discharge. Important: Care must

be taken to ensure the battery does not become totally discharged.

See Section 6.1 for details.

3.5 Recharging xPower600

1. The battery’s charge level may be seen by pressing the Battery

Status switch on the AC Power Panel.

2. To recharge, plug the AC Charger into a standard 115 Volt AC

outlet and the DC plug into the DC Power Socket (located on the

DC Power Panel). The Recharge Indicator on the AC Charger will

change from amber to green when charging is complete (8 to 10

hours). It is safe (and recommended) to leave the AC Charger

connected indefinitely.

3. Charging may also be done from an automobile lighter socket.

See Section 8.3 for details.
