4. CHARGING/RECHARGING
4.1 110-Volt AC Charging
IMPORTANT:
• MAKE SURE SAFETY ON/OFF SWITCH IS IN OFF POSITION DURING RECHARGING.
• Charge unit for full 24 hours, prior to first use.
• Recharge unit fully after each use.
• Recharge unit every two months, when it has not been used.
1. Simply plug the 110-volt AC plug (Fig. 5 #1) of the AC/DC adapter/charger cord into any standard
110/120-volt AC wall outlet.
2. Plug the 12-volt DC cigarette type plug (Fig. 5 #2) into the 12-volt DC receptacle on the unit.
3. Charge this device for at least 14-16 hours or until the FULL indicator is lit.
4. NOTE: The unit can be overcharged (which will shorten the life of the battery)—DO NOT charge with AC
charging procedure for more than 24 hours maximum.
5. Remove the power cord and store in a safe place.
6. When the 110-volt power inverter option is installed on the unit, the inverter ‘s ON/OFF switch must be in
the OFF position during recharging.
4.2 12-Volt DC Charging
The
INDUSTRIAL 900™
system also comes with a DC/DC charging cord, for recharging the unit from the 12-volt
DC cigarette lighter socket in a vehicle or boat. Note: This recharging method will NOT recharge the unit as
effectively as recharging from a 110-volt AC outlet. The 12-volt DC recharging procedure is recommended only
when it is necessary, as continued use of the 12-volt DC recharging procedure may shorten the battery system’s life.
