iNiTiAL USE
Your Power Station must be charged before first use.
If you have any questions regarding the use of your Power Station,
call our Technical Support Team at 1-877-338-0999. Please have
your serial number and model number available.
Unpacking
1. Set the shipping carton on a solid, flat surface.
2. Remove everything from the carton except the Power Station.
3. Using the carrying handles of the unit, carefully remove
the Power Station from the box (two people lifting is
recommended).
Grounding
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes ordinances.
Surge Protection
Electronic devices, including computers and many programmable
appliances use components that are designed to operate within a
narrow voltage range and may be affected by momentary voltage
fluctuations. While there is no way to prevent voltage fluctuations,
you can take steps to protect sensitive electronic equipment.
– Install UL1449, CSA-listed, plug-in surge suppressors on the
outlets feeding your sensitive equipment.
Surge suppressors come in single- or multi-outlet styles.
They're designed to protect against virtually all short-duration
voltage fluctuations.
Charging from wall
The Power Station must be fully charged every 180 days when
in storage, to keep the internal battery in good operating
condition.
The Power Station can be safely charged through the AC and
DC inputs simultaneously to increase charging power and
reduce charging time.

1. Remove the rubber plug covering the AC input port on the
AC Charging module.
2. Plug the AC Charging Cable into the AC input port on the back
of the Power Station.
3. Plug the other end into a standard wall outlet.
Using included Easy Connect DC Solar
Charge Harness
(For solar panels with MC4 connector)
The Power Station's charging wattage is rated at 440W.
However, depending on environmental conditions and solar
panel efficiency, it may be necessary to connect more than
any combination of 440W of solar panels to reach the full
440W of charging power. It will not damage the Power Station
to add solar panels until the charging power reaches 440W.
The charging power and rate is reduced as the battery level
gets closer to 100% to safely charge the internal battery.
It is important to adjust your solar panels to face the sun as
best as possible throughout the day to achieve maximum
charging efficiency.
For example, on a cloudy day, two 200W (400W total) rated
solar panels may only produce 250W of charge. It may be
necessary, and will not harm you Power Station, to add
another 200W solar panel to the harness.
