lighter  input  cable  or  vehicle  installation  cable)  into  the  input 

connector.

of input power.

•  The red CHG LED will be turned on to indicate the fast charging 

for the internal battery pack. When the battery is fully charged, this 

LED will be switched off.

5.2 Stand-Alone Mode

Main Output:

•  DO NOT connect anything to the main output before setting the 

voltage correctly!!!

•  Set the output voltage to 5V or 12V by sliding the selection switch.
•  Plug  the  appropriate  3-way  main  output  cable  into  the  main 

connector.

•  Plug the other end of the cable into your equipment, for example, 

PotsDOCK.

•  If your equipment draws more than 2A current, the red Overload 

LED will be turned on!

USB Output:

•  Plug the type A end of your USB cable into the USB output.
•  Plug the other end of the cable into your equipment, for example, 

the 9555 phone.

•  If your equipment draws more than 1A current, the red Overload 

LED will be turned on!

Please  note  that  both  main  output  and  USB  output  can  be  used 

simultaneously providing up to 3A current.

5.3 UPS Mode

•  Plug the input power source as per instructed in 5.1.
•  Connect your equipment to the main and/or USB outputs as per 

instructed in 5.2.

•  In case a power failure occurred, the UPS Pack would continue to 

power your equipment and the duration will depend on the battery 

capacity at the power failure.

•  When  the  battery  capacity  in  the  UPS  Pack  is  low  and  your 

equipment is drawing full current from the outputs, it will take much 

longer to charge the UPS Pack. Thus, it is recommended to fully 

charge the UPS Pack before using it as a UPS.
