Overheating

The XPower Powerpack is protected from overheating. If the

inverter exceeds a safe temperature, power to the AC Outlet

and DC Socket automatically shuts off. It will reset

automatically after the unit cools down.

Low Battery Protection

Low battery protection protects the internal battery from

excessive discharge and possible damage. When the AC

Outlet

/

OFF

switch is turned on, an audible alarm alerts you

when the internal battery is nearly discharged (11.0Vdc) and

the unit turns off at 10.5 Vdc.

Jump-Start Cables Safety Fuse

The XPower Powerpack comes with a user-replaceable

250 A fuse to protect the unit and vehicle battery from

damage through reverse polarity and short-circuit conditions.

CAUTION

turn the AC Outlet O

manner will void the unit’s warranty.
