7. CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERY OF THE INSTANT POWER™
IMPORTANT: CHARGE IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASE, AFTER EACH USE AND
EVERY 30 DAYS TO KEEP THE INSTANT POWER™ INTERNAL BATTERY FULLY
CHARGED.
7.1 Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. When
an extension cord is used, make sure:
• That the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size and shape
as those of the plug on the Instant Power™ charger.
• That the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
• That the extension cord has a wire size of 18 gauge (AWG) [0.82 mm
2 ] or larger and
is 50 feet (15.24 meters) long or less.
7.2 To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the Instant Power™ charger from the outlet
before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Simply turning off the controls will not
reduce this risk.
7.3 When charging the internal battery, work in a well ventilated area and do not restrict the
ventilation in any way.
7.4 LED Indicators:
To check the internal battery’s charge status, press the Battery Status button on the front
of the Instant Power™.
The LED lights will indicate the charge level as follows:
• A red LED indicates a 50% or less charge and you should immediately recharge the
Instant Power™.
• A yellow LED indicates a 50 to 75% charge. The Instant Power™ may be used but
should be recharged as soon as possible.
• A green LED indicates the internal battery is fully charged.
• The CHARGING (red) LED indicates the Instant Power™ is charging (connected to
an AC power source.) At full charge, the CHARGED (green) LED will light.
7.5 Charging the Internal Battery using the Built-In Charger:
1. To charge, plug an 18 gauge (AWG) [0.82 mm 2 ] or larger extension cord into the
charger plug on the back of the Instant Power™. (Extension cord not included; must
be purchased separately.)
2. Plug the extension cord into a 120V AC electrical wall outlet.
3. The CHARGING (red) LED will glow, indicating charging.
