default will be on.
De-Activate System
Press and Release the Pure

ON/OFF button.
When you turn the system off, the green light on
the ON/OFF button may stay on for a period of
time while the system shuts down all
components. This can last up to a couple minutes.
The SOC gauge will also blink blue during this
time. You will know the pack is properly shut
down when the lights on the button and gauge are
completely off.
Charging
Pure
3
energy storage packs are designed to
safely charge utilizing Volta approved power
distribution devices. Charging devices include
the Pure
3
alternator, Pure
3
solar charger, and
Pure
3
inverter/charger. No additional charging
devices should be connected to a Pure
3
system.
Doing so could cause a potentially unsafe
condition that could damage or destroy your
system.
Charging from Shoreline
When plugged into shore power, the Pure
3
system will begin charging.
Adjustable Charge Rate
When the system is turned on for the first
time, the charger current limit defaults to 15
Amps. After that the system remembers the last
setting.
Refer to the LCD Display Supplement manual
provided in your InfoCase or use the following
instructions for directions on how to change the
charger current limit.

NOTICE
If the system does not transfer power and
begin charging, the cause is likely due to
poor quality incoming power. This feature
protects the vehicle from brown outs due
to insufficient power, a common
occurrence when large numbers of
vehicles are tied to one shore power
source. If the Volta energy storage pack
still has remaining energy, the vehicle
systems should remain operational.
