Question:
Can the Truck PAC's battery be replaced?
Answer:
Yes, call Technical Service at (913) 310-1050 (U.S.).
Question:
Can the Truck PAC be recycled?
Answer:
Yes, the environment was one of our main concerns in the development
and design of the Truck PAC. Most battery outlets can dispose of this
product at its life's end. In fact, your Truck PAC contains a sealed, non-
spillable lead acid battery and proper disposal is required by law. See
Battery Removal and Disposal Instructions.
Question:
What is the ideal in-use temperature of the Truck PAC?
Answer:
Room temperature. The Truck PAC will also operate at below zero
temperatures, however its power will be reduced. Intense heat will
accelerate self discharge of the Truck PAC battery.
Question:
I have a regular 10 amp battery charger, can I use it to recharge the
Truck PAC?
Answer:
No, only the supplied wall charger should be used.
Question:
Is the Truck PAC goof proof?
Answer:
No, jump starting instructions must be followed. Read and understand all
safety and operating instructions in this manual and those found in the
owner’s manual of any vehicle being jump started before using your
Truck PAC.
Question:
I'm recharging my Truck PAC. Should the green CHARGE COMPLETE
light immediately come on?
Answer:
No. First the yellow CHARGING light will come on to indicate the
charging process is beginning. Then, the red POWER LEVEL lights come
on in sequence as the level of charge increases. Finally, the green
CHARGE COMPLETE light will come on, but only when the Truck PAC
approaches full charge.
Question:
How long should I charge the Truck PAC?
Answer:
It should be charged for a minimum of 30 hours when new. Your Truck
PAC can be left on the wall charger continuously. When recharging with
the wall charger, the Truck PAC should be charged for 4 to 6 hours per
light that remains unlit when the TEST button is pressed.
Question:
How do I know when the Truck PAC is fully charged?
Answer:
Follow all charging instructions. Remove the Truck PAC from the wall
charger and press the TEST button. If all power indicator lights come on,
it is fully charged.
Question:
How can I test the battery in my Truck PAC to see if it needs to be
replaced?
Answer:
We recommend that you use a 100 amp battery load tester. Load the
Truck PAC battery for 6 seconds with a 100 amp load and it should
maintain at least 9 Vdc.
