IMPORTANT
ON FIRST USE: Perform a full charge, discharge, and charge cycle to ensure maximum battery life. For information, see the Battery Storage Guide on the reverse side of this document.

Introduction

The Xantrex Lithium-ion Batteries are lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) chemistry batteries used in conjunction with the internal Battery Management System (BMS) unit which protects the batteries and monitors state-of-charge (SoC), voltage, current, and temperature. A – Xanax Battery

BATTERY DISPOSAL
At the end of the battery’s useful life, proper disposal is required. Do not dispose of the battery with ordinary household waste. Refer to your local codes for the proper disposal of lithium-ion batteries.

Installation

NOTE: See the Owner’s Guide (document number: 975-1042-01-01) online for detailed instructions.

Check the battery and the battery cable (if included) for visible damage including cracks, dents, chips, and deformations.
Select a location for the battery that is stable, clean, cool, dry, and well-ventilated.
Mount the battery so that either the top of the side label is pointing up. The battery can be mounted in either orientation. Mount the battery in a location away from heat sources.
Orient the devices so that the cables avoid sharp bends. Follow the bending radius recommendation below. This applies to both the communication and battery cables.
The battery uses M8 holes and bolts, these should be compatible with either 5/16″ (or 3/8″) lugs. The terminal should be torqued to 85-95 in-lb or 10-11 N-m.
Ensure a disconnect device and/or a protection device is in line with the pos(+) battery cable before connecting the battery to the DC System.
Optional: Connect the 4-pin connector cable and route the remote panel connectors as required.
NOTE: Installation and maintenance shall only be performed by qualified personnel as defined in the Important Safety Information above. Contact Xantrex for information resources.

LED Indicators

The battery has four LED indicators and an optional remote summary LED. The LED indicators under normal operating conditions will provide details about the state of charge (SOC) of the battery. If an error is detected the LED indicators can be used to determine the error. See the LED Indicator Summary in the last section for simple troubleshooting.

Battery Storage Guidelines

In order to keep your Xantrex Lithium-ion Batteries at peak performance and at their healthiest state, you have to store them according to proper storage conditions and also maintain them with proper care.
Storage can be short-term, such as less than one month, or long-term, such as more than three months.
Storage Specifications
Table 1 For batteries with 883-prefix product numbers

Term	Temperature	Humidity	Duration
< one week	–4 to 113°F ( –20 to 45°C)	< 85%RH	Short
< one month	14 to 113°F (–10 to 45°C)	< 85%RH	Short
< three months	50 to 77°F (10 to 25°C)	< 85%RH	Short
> three months*	50 to 77°F ( 10 to 25°C)	< 85%RH	Long

For long-term duration storage, the battery should be kept in a particular charged state such as 13.2V, ~50% SoC, and stored at the recommended storage specifications shown above.
Storage Instructions for Short Durations
1. Fully charge the battery.
2. Turn off the battery using the ON/OFF button.
3. Keep the battery in an environment according to Storage Specifications.

Storage and Maintenance Instructions for Long Durations

Reduce the battery state-of-charge (SoC) to 50% ±10% which is approximately 13.2V for a 12V battery.
Turn off the battery using the ON/OFF button.
Keep the battery in an environment according to Storage Specifications.
Every three months maintain the battery by charging it to 100% SoC, then discharging the battery to a low voltage cutoff (LVC) level, then charging it back to 50% ±10% SoC.

NOTICE
RISK OF BATTERY DAMAGE
Do not charge the battery at an ambient temperature below freezing.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in damage to the battery and may void the warranty.

Battery Maintenance Guideline

The Xantrex Lithium-ion Batteries system is designed to require the least amount of maintenance possible. The battery and internal BMS are contained in a sealed device and do not require disassembly for maintenance reasons.
In general, to properly maintain the battery, follow the storage guidelines in the previous sections.
If the battery/ies are in regular use, then it is recommended that the battery/ies be fully charged a minimum of once per two weeks in order for the BMS to recalibrate its State
of Charge (SoC) setting. This process also ensures that the SoC meter maintains its accuracy.
