The
3.2 led lights will indicate the charge level as follows:
A red LED indicates a 50% or less charge and you should immediately a.
recharge the Power Pak.
A yellow LED indicates a 50 to 75% charge. The Power Pak may be b.
used but should be recharged as soon as possible.
A green LED indicates the internal battery is fully charged. c.

After removing the Power Pak from the carton, charge it for a minimum of 4.1
eight hours before using, even if the green charged LED glows.
NOTE: The ON/OFF switch should be in the OFF position to recharge the
internal battery.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 5.
USING THE INVERTER 5.1
It is important to know the continuous wattage of the device you plan to
use with the inverter. The Power Pak must be used with devices drawing
400 watts or less. If the wattage is not marked on the device, an estimate
can be made by multiplying the AC input current (Amps) by the AC voltage
(120V).
Devices like TVs, fans or electric motors require additional power to start
(commonly known as the “starting or peak power”). The Power Pak can
supply a momentary surge in wattage; however even devices rated less
than the maximum 400 watts can exceed the inverter’s surge capability
and cause an automatic overload shutdown.
Make sure the device you are using is compatible with a modified sine
wave inverter.
CAUTION: Always run a test to establish whether the inverter will operate
