PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Cube is a lightweight all-in-one portable power station built in a compact design. It is the latest fast-charging technology of Portable Power Stations.
It delivers up to 650 Wh coming from lithium batteries (depending on the battery size). The Cube can supply many devices, ranging from lights to laptops, TV, fans, PC, tablet, or smartphones, giving you the confidence to power anything anywhere.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY

Before you can use the Cube, first you must:

1. Install the battery
2. Charge the battery

To install the battery, connect the two leads (ensure they are fitted tightly).

USING THE PRODUCT

Fully charge the device before using it. Plug the UPS into the main socket with the cable provided and leave to charge for up to 3 hours before you initially use the product.

1. Check your device is suitable to run from the Lifelynk Cube

2. Check the voltage and current your device uses (See section 1.2). Devices above 1Amp MIGHT not be suitable depending on the devices characteristics

3. Check the polarity of the cable. Normally, the metre is positive (It will show on the adapter Most but not all 9V or 12V devices use “Centre Positive” plugs and sockets as shown by the positive polarity symbol which can usually been seen on the devices power supply adapter. If device to be powered is centre negative then a special cable (not supplied) will be needed.

4. Connect the Lifelynk mini to the mains socket and switch on.

5. Switch on the Lifelynk Cube. Your device should power up immediately. (If your device does not power up, unplug it and seek for advice)

6. Fully charge before first use.

WARNING

•  Select a suitable adapter for your device.
• This product supplies centre positive power and if connected to a centre negative device, the connected device could be damaged. Ensure polarity is correct before connecting any device.
•  Incorrectly connecting a 9V device to the 12V output of the Cube could damage the connected device.

FAULT FINDING

1. If your LyfeLynk Cube does not operate or charge after following all of the instructions, please try the following steps:
   • Check that the ON switch is in the correct position.
   •  Check that the battery is charged (look at the charge level LEDs).
2. If your LyfeLynk Cube is operating but not powering my equipment:
   • Check your unit is compatible with the LyfeLynk.
   • Check the connection cable.
   • Check that your device is connected to the correct 9V or 12V output socket.
   • Check that you are using the correct adaptor if more than one adaptor fits your device.
   • Double-check the polarity of your device (Centre Positive).

If any of these recommendations solve your problem, unplug and seek professional help.
