To recharge the XPower Powerpack while you drive using
the DC Charging Cable:
1. While the vehicle engine is running, plug one end of the
DC Charging Cable into the DC Power Socket of the
XPower Powerpack.
2. Plug the opposite end of the DC Charging Cable into the
vehicle’s lighter socket or 12 V accessory outlet.
3. Once the XPower Powerpack is fully charged or if your
vehicle’s engine is not running, disconnect the DC
Charging Cable from both sockets.
Most of the XPower Powerpack’s capacity will be restored
in four hours while the vehicle engine is running.
WARNING: Fire and explosion hazard
Do not use this recharging method if your vehicle has abnormally
high voltage electrical systems that operate above 15 V DC. This
may lead to accumulations of hydrogen, causing exposure to fire
and explosion hazard.
CAUTION
Do not operate AC or DC appliances while the XPower Powerpack
is being recharged with the DC Charging Cable from your vehicle.
Note :
The green Charging Status light will not illuminate when
the XPower Powerpack is recharged through the DC Charging
Cable.
Note :
Battery Charge (%) indicator is only accurate when the
XPower Powerpack has been disconnected from all appliances
and all charging sources for fifteen minutes.
Important: Do not leave the XPower Powerpack permanently
connected to the vehicle’s lighter socket or 12 V accessory outlet.
