Recharging the Duracell® Powerpack
Battery
To check the Duracell® Powerpack’s charge level, press the
Battery Level button.
You can recharge the battery using:
• the fully automatic “plug-in-and-forget” AC charger.
• the DC charging cable to recharge from your vehicle as
you drive.
• a generator equipped with a regulated 12 V battery
charging outlet.
• a solar panel.
Recharging with the AC Charger
Recharging with the AC charger is a true “plug-in-and-
forget” charging method.
To recharge with the AC charger:
1. Disconnect any 12 V DC appliances from the DC power
outlets.
2. Disconnect any AC products from the Duracell®
Powerpack and turn the AC Power
ON/OFF switch to OFF.
3. Insert the AC charger cable end into the AC charger input
socket located under the red jump-starting clamp.
Note: The Duracell® Powerpack Battery Level LEDs are only
accurate when the Duracell® Powerpack has been disconnected
from all appliances and all charging sources for 15 minutes.
CAUTION
Do not operate AC or DC appliances with the Duracell®
Powerpack while the Duracell® Powerpack is being recharged
with the AC charger.
The AC charger may be permanently damaged if AC appliances or
12 V DC appliances are operated while the AC charger is
connected.
