4 Maintenance
Chapter 4 provides information on maintaining your internal
battery, recharging options for the internal battery, and
replacing user-replaceable parts.
Routine maintenance is required to keep your XPower
Powerpack operating properly. Occasionally clean the
exterior of the unit with a damp cloth to remove the
accumulated dust and dirt.
Battery Maintenance
All rechargeable batteries gradually discharge when left
standing, and you need to recharge them periodically to
maintain maximum battery capacity. The AC Charger
supplied with the XPower Powerpack is designed to regulate
the charging process, ensuring that the battery is always fully
charged but never overcharged. To ensure safe recharging
and maximum battery life, recharge the XPower Powerpack
only with the supplied charger or approved battery chargers.

WARNING: Shock hazard
Disconnect all sources of AC power and DC power before
performing any type of maintenance.
CAUTION
Due to inherent self-discharge, lead acid batteries must be
charged at least every 3 months, especially in a warm
environment. Leaving a battery in a discharged state, or not
recharging every 3 months, may result in permanent battery
damage and poor jump-start performance.
