immediately with soap and water. If acid enters your eye,
immediately flood it with running cold water for at least
twenty minutes and get medical attention immediately.

electrolyte.

Precautions for Using Rechargeable

Appliances

Most rechargeable battery-operated equipment uses a
separate charger or transformer that is plugged into an AC
receptacle and produces a low voltage charging output.

Some chargers for rechargeable batteries can be damaged if
connected to the XPower Powerpack.

Do not use the following with the XPower Powerpack:

Small battery-operated appliances like flashlights, razors,
and night lights that can be plugged directly into an AC
receptacle to recharge.

Some chargers for battery packs used in hand power
tools. These affected chargers display a warning label
stating that dangerous voltages are present at the battery
terminals.

Note

:

If you are unsure about using your rechargeable appliance

with the XPower Powerpack, contact the equipment manufacturer
to determine the rechargeable appliance’s compatibility with the
modified sinewave AC waveform of the XPower Powerpack.
