OPERATING DEVICES USING THE PORTABLE POWER SUPPLY

IMPORTANT!
Always make sure that your end device is compatible with the portable power supply. Check the user manual for your device as well as the technical data in this manual. Always choose the recommended connection option.
NOTE:
Before connecting an end device, check that the portable power supply is sufficiently charged. If necessary, charge the battery in the portable power supply (see “Charging the built-in battery”).

Press the on/off switch (16) for approximately 5 seconds to switch on the portable power supply. The display will light up and the show the power stats.

POWER SUPPLY WITH DIRECT CURRENT (DC)
Cables with a matching plug can be connected to one of the three DC 5.5/2.1mm sockets (12) to power an end device.

Connect the cable on the desired device to one of the sockets.
Press the DC function button (13) for approximately 5 seconds. The corresponding function indicator will light up. The connected end device will be supplied with power.

NOTE:
The 12V DC output voltage ranges between 9V~12.6V; the maximum output current is 15A. The DC output voltage decreases in line with the battery charge due to the chemical properties of the battery. If your device does not have a built- in stabilization function for the input voltage, it may power off if the input voltage is too low. If this occurs, disconnect your device and recharge the portable power supply.
Short circuit/surge protection: If the DC output is short-circuited or overloaded (power >1200 W), the device switches off in order to protect the internal components. Please fix the problem and charge the device to restore it.
The DC output switches off when the AC power reaches 1000W.
VOLTAGE SUPPLY WITH ALTERNATING CURRENT (AC)
Cables with a matching Euro mains plug can be connected to the two 230V AC sockets (14) to power an end device (e.g. bedside light).

Connect the cable on the desired device to one of the sockets.
Press the AC function button (15) for approximately 5 seconds. The corresponding function indicator will light up. The connected end device will be supplied with power.

NOTE:
Short circuit/surge protection: If the AC output is short-circuited or overloaded (power >1200W), the portable power supply will switch off in order to protect the internal components. If this occurs, rectify the problem and then press the AC button to use the AC output again.
Some appliances (such as refrigerators, ice makers or laser printers) may require a power surge in order to start. This may be 1300W for 10 seconds or 2400W for 1 second, which can lead to the surge protection function being triggered. If this occurs, disconnect the devices and contact the device manufacturer for more information.
Rectify the problem and then press the AC button to use the AC output again.
The DC output switches off when the AC power reaches 1000W.

POWER SUPPLY VIA USB-A
Cables with a suitable USB-A plug can be connected to the two USB-A sockets (9) and the two similar-looking QC3.0 sockets (8) to charge an end device (e.g. smartphone).
1. Connect the cable on the desired device to one of the sockets.
2. Press the AC function button (6) for approximately 5 seconds. The corresponding function indicator will light up. The connected end device will be supplied with power.
NOTE:
Some smart devices such as Bluetooth headphones and LED lights require a very small input current to charge, which can be less than 150 mA. The portable power supply may not be able to charge this type of smart device due to the USB outputs being unable
to detect a current. If this occurs, press the AC button to keep the USB output running.
Turn off the AC output when your device is fully charged in order to save power.
Fast charging output: The two QC3.0 sockets (8) support Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0.
The output supports a maximum of 5V-9V/2A (e.g. for smartphones that also support Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0). The actual output voltage and current depend on the connected smart devices. For more information, check the manual or contact the device manufacturer.
The USB-A (9), QC3.0 (8) and DC 5.5/2.1mm (12) sockets and the 12V cigarette lighter socket (4) switch off when the portable power supply is charged via the DC7.9 socket (19).
