OWNER’S MANUAL
Thank you for choosing myCharge Summit™ 3000

Section I: Quick Start
- Charge up your Summit in one of two ways: use the fold- out prongs on the back of the unit for fast-charging via wall outlet or extend the USB charging cable located on the side of the unit to plug into your laptop’s USB port.
- As Summit charges, LEDs on the unit will sequentially illuminate. When the unit is fully charged, all LEDs are lit. Press the level check button to see how much power is available.
- Summit comes equipped with Apple 30-pin and Micro- USB connectors, as well as a built-in USB port for use with your own cable. Connect your device(s) to one of the various inputs available. Charge up to three devices simultaneously by using all connectors and USB port.
- Unplug your device when it’s charged and go! Your Summit will automatically power off after your devices are unplugged.
Section II: Charging Summit
The fastest way to charge Summit is via the fold-out wall prongs – simply plug it into a wall outlet. When you are away from an outlet, connect Summit to your computer’s USB port and charge via the on-board green USB input cable.
Times to charge the Summit vary based on what it’s plugged into. You can expect a full charge from the wall in about two hours or from a standard notebook USB port in about five and a half hours.
Note: It is normal for your Summit to be warm to the touch while in use.
Section III: Charging Devices
Summit uses an automatic device detection system. When devices are plugged in, Summit provides charging power until they are unplugged or the Summit runs out of energy.
Up to three devices can be charged simultaneously. Summit has an automatic load balancing system that will prioritize its outputs to optimize charging. In most cases, Summit will charge 3 devices at once. In the event that three high-powered devices with depleted batteries are plugged in, the Apple 30-pin Connector is provided priority amongst all others, followed by the USB port, and then the Micro-USB connector. Once the high-powered Apple device (iPad, iPhone) nears a full charge, the device connected to the USB-A port will begin charging. Once charged, the Micro-USB device will begin charging. Low-powered Apple devices like iPod nano and iPod classic don’t draw as much power, so multiple devices can charge simultaneously.
The Summit Apple 30-pin Connector is compatible with iPhone and most iPod models. The Micro-USB connector and USB ports support the majority of mobile devices including smartphones, tablets, Bluetooth® headsets, portable navigation devices, MP3 players, and more.
Section IV: Checking Battery Level
To check how much energy is available, press the level check button. LEDs next to the button will illuminate indicating approximately how much energy is available for use. Additionally, if voice is enabled, Summit will tell you how much energy is available.
LED 1 Flashing – Under 25%
LED 1 – 25-34%
LED 2 – 35-50%
LED 3 – 51-70%
LED 4 – 71-90%
LED 5 – 91-100%
Section V: Syncing
iPad, iPhone or iPod can be synced with iTunes while connected to Summit. Just plug Summit’s on-board green USB input cable into your PC, connect your iPad, iPhone or iPod to the Apple 30-pin connector, then press and hold the Summit power button for 2 seconds. Your device will begin to sync.
Note: Sync is not supported through the USB output port or the Micro-USB connector.
Section VI: Sound Modes
Summit has built-in voice and tone capability. Tone mode will audibly inform you when devices are plugged in or disconnected, and when the unit is charging or has completed charging. Voice mode will verbally inform you of battery status, when devices are plugged in or disconnected, and when the unit is charging or has completed charging.
To disable, enable and/or change the various sound modes
- Locate the Sound pinhole button underneath the Apple 30- pin Connector
- Plug Summit into your PC
- Use a paperclip to cycle Voice Tone Silent Voice
If you prefer no sound, toggle to the silent mode – unit will make no sound when this option is selected. If you prefer tone mode, toggle until you hear the tone. Finally, if you prefer language, toggle until you hear a voice.
Summit offers language notifications in 4 languages – English, French, Spanish and Portuguese. To select a language locate the language pinhole and use a paperclip to toggle through the languages until you hear the language you prefer.
Section VII: Maintenance
To keep Summit operating at its full potential, please do the following:
- Re-charge every three months when not in use.
- Keep dry and away from moist and corrosive materials.
- To clean, wipe surface with dry cloth.

Section IX: Troubleshooting
My device is not charging: Confirm that your device is properly connected to the appropriate connector and the Summit itself has energy (by pressing the level check button). LEDs indicate how much energy is available for use. If multiple devices are connected, disconnect them and connect only the device that is not charging. Automatic load balancing charges devices in priority of Apple 30-pin Connector, USB port, followed by Micro-USB connector. If the multiple devices need more power than Summit has available, some devices may not begin to charge until others finish charging.
Not all mobile devices are the same in the way they charge. Some, namely Samsung Galaxy tablets, require a proprietary USB port and will not charge from your Summit.
My device doesn’t sync with iTunes: Refer to Section V: Syncing.
I don’t want the voice or tone function on: Refer to Section VI: Sound Modes.
