SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Battery Time Management

Time away from home is almost limitless by combining the
use of the AC power supply, DC power supply and the XPO
batteries. To ensure the batteries maintain their optimal
charge level, utilize the AC power supply whenever you have
access to electric power. Utilize the DC power supply
whenever you are in a vehicle.

Prolonging Battery Life

Do's
• When you first receive your XPO
internal battery (and supplemental external battery if
provided) overnight.
• Keep your batteries fully charged when using the XPO
regularly.
• Your XPO
recharged at any time. These batteries can have their
charge "topped off" at any time.
• Always ensure the XPO
external batteries are recharged as soon as possible after
they become fully discharged. The batteries may be
permanently degraded if left fully discharged for an
extended length of time.
• Check the status of your XPO
external battery once a month if you are not using your
XPO regularly. Both batteries should be maintained at 2
2
illuminated bars worth of charge.
• Heat is the worst enemy of a battery. Allow plenty of air
to circulate around the XPO
cool as possible when charging and also when in use.
