Recharging the Duracell® Powerpack 600 Battery
4.
Insert the AC charger cable end into the charger input
socket located on the left side
of
the Duracell®
Powerpack.
5.
While the Duracell® Powerpack is recharging, the green
Charging
Status light is flashing.
If
the battery is
completely discharged, a typical recharge may take up to
35
hours. When fully charged, the green
Charging
Status light changes to steady and the Duracell®
Powerpack is ready to use.
Important: The 35-hour charging time for the Duracell®
Powerpack assumes that there is 120 V at the AC wall outlet.
If
the voltage is less than 120 V AC, it may take more than 35 hours
to fully recharge the Duracell® Powerpack. If, after 35 hours
of
charging, the green Charging Status light is still flashing and not
steady, continue to charge the unit for another
15
hours.
Once the battery is fully charged, the charging voltage and
current automatically reduces to a maintenance level and the
Duracell® Powerpack may be left permanently connected to
the AC charger.
If
your utility power is interrupted, the
charging process automatically restarts when power returns.
Recharging
with
the
DC
Charging
Cable
Using the DC charging cable, the Duracell® Powerpack can
be recharged while you drive your vehicle.
Important: Although the charge regulation circuitry in the
Duracell® Powerpack does not operate with this charging method,
most vehicle voltage regulators will ensure that the Duracell®
Powerpack is not overcharged.
