Choosing a Location
The XPower Powerpack should be operated only in a location
that meets these requirements:
:
CAUTION
Do not use the XPower Powerpack to operate any AC
appliances or 12 volt DC appliances while recharging
with the AC Charger.
The AC Charger may fail if AC appliances or 12 volt
DC appliances are operated while the AC Charger is
connected.
CAUTION
The XPower Powerpack is not intended for use as a UPS
(Uninterruptible Power Supply).
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.
Dry
Do not allow water or other liquids to drop or splash
on the XPower Powerpack.
Cool
Ambient air temperature should be between 32 ºF
and 104 ºF (0 ºC and 40 ºC)—the cooler the better
within this range.
Ventilated
Leave at least 2 inches (5 cm) clearance around the
XPower Powerpack for air flow. Ensure that the
ventilation openings are not obstructed.
Safe
Do not operate the unit in the same compartment as
batteries or in any compartment capable of storing
flammable liquids like gasoline.
Protected
from battery
gases
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.
