Rechargeable Batteries
Rechargeable lead-acid batteries are the same type used in automobiles. As with your car battery,
how you use this battery has a significant impact on its lifespan. With proper use and treatment, a
lead-acid battery can last for years. Here are some recommendations for getting the longest life from
the internal battery.

Extension Cord Warnings:
•
Keep all electrical cords in good condition. Do not use worn, bare, or frayed cords, which can
cause electrical shock when Raptor is connected to wall power.
•
If you must use an extension cord, use only grounded extension cords that are rated for outdoor
use and equipment with a third-wire ground.
•
Avoid using excessively long extension cords, which can cause voltage drops, causing the cord
to overheat.
•
When using long extension cords with Raptor, use a heavier cord with a larger wire size to
reduce the voltage drop (the longer or thinner the cord, the greater the voltage drop).
North America: Do not use Raptor with an IEC input cable rated for less than 15 A.
EU: Do not use Raptor with an IEC input cable rated for less than 10 A.
Fully charge the battery before using the speaker.
Charge the battery completely after each use.
For best product longevity, do not store at exceedingly hot (greater than 90 °F /
32 °C) or exceedingly cold (less than 32 °F / 0 °C) temperatures.
It is acceptable to leave your speaker plugged in. This will not overcharge the
battery.
If you leave the battery level low and do not charge it for 6 months, it may
permanently lose capacity.
If the battery fails to charge, check your fuse near the power cable input. If your fuse
is intact and it still will not charge, contact ION Audio at ionaudio.com.
Bring the unit to a recycling center or dispose of in accordance with local
ordinances.
