It s recommended to fully charge the product before using for the first time.
- TheLcD screen will light up by long pressing the power button for 3 seconds. When charging function is enabled, the charging indicator will light up, the charge column will flash, and the charge percentage will change with the change of the charging capacity.
- Short press AC button to enable the AC function, and the corresponding AC icon will light up.
- Short press DC button to enable the DC function, and the corresponding DC icon will light up.
- USB A and USB C come with automatic wake-up function, and the indication icon will light up when the corresponding port is plugged into the device.
- Turn the dial switch to enable the power-saving mode.
Power on:
- At the OFF state, long press the power button for 3 seconds to turn equipment on. The display shows DC/USB-C&USB/AC, indicating that the corresponding function is on.
- Quick-start mode: connecting USB-C or USB-A charging cable, the system will start automatically after detection; the system will automatically shut down after detecting no load for 10 minutes.
Manual shutdown:
Manually turn off all outputs, the display will stop showing
DC/USB-C&USB/AC, and the product will shut down.
Automatic shutdown:
When the power-saving mode is OFF and AC is enabled, it will stay power on
for 8 hours to ensure that low-power appliances (such as Bluetooth headsets,
electric toothbrushes, etc.) could be fully charged. After 8 hours, the device
detects that there is a load and it will continue to work; the device will
automatically shut down when detecting no load. With the power-saving mode on,
it will disable the AC output and shut down at 2 hours if itis under low pawer
load.
Note: Some products, such as DC 12V car refrigerators have intermittent
power consumption, or DC low-power loads turn off DC output for 4 hours, and
this function can ensure their normal use; the charging power of Bluetooth
headsets and other products is very low, and they will be fully charged within
8 hours.
Overload shutdown:
When the output exceeds the overload protection power, the overload
protection will be triggered. The port will disable the output, and can only
be rebooted after removing the overload.
Low battery shutdown:
The product will automatically shut down when the battery is low, and it
can be turned on after recharging.
Over temperature shutdown:
The product will shut down when it is beyond the range of allowable
temperature. Do not use it in this case. The product should be placed in a
ventilated environment at room temperature, please wait until the product
tempera- ture return to the normal range before using again.
3.3 Charging Your Product
Charge through AC adapter + USB-C port: 160W max, about 2 hours for a
full charge
Charge through USB-C port: 60W max, about 5 hours for a full charge
Charge through AC adapter: 10.8-26V/5A, 1O0W max, about 3 hours for a
full charge
