battery will shorten its life. Therefore, when you are using a
vehicle battery as a power source, start the vehicle every
hour or two to recharge the battery.
• The XPower will operate while the engine is running, but the
voltage drop that occurs when the engine starts may trigger a
low voltage shutdown.
• Vehicle batteries are designed to provide brief periods of
very high current needed for engine starting. They are not
intended for constant deep discharge. Regularly operating
the XPower from a vehicle battery until the low voltage
alarm sounds will shorten the life of the battery. Consider
connecting the XPower to a separate deep discharge type
battery if you will be frequently running electrical products
for extended periods of time.
• If you are not going to use the XPower for more than a week,
turn off the On/Off switch. The inverter draws less than
0.25 amps when the On/Off switch is on and no load is
connected, but it will eventually discharge the battery.
