2. Press the power button located above each port youwil be using. “When notusing

certain ports, make sure to turn them off to conserve power.

2. Youll know the port is turned on when the LED light on the buttons iluminated

3. Plug in your gear for power anywhere life takes you

4. possible, keep your Goal Zero Yeti plugged into a power source when not in use

5. You can charge your Goal Zero Yeti, and run your gear at the same time

Best-Use Strategy: When recharging gear with your Yeti take note of the LED Battery Display. you plug in devices that have ahigh power requirement, the charge level of your Yeti can drop very quickly and you may not get exactly 187Wh of power. Onthe fpside, if your charging devices that draw power more sloiy (a tablet}, youwil get closer to 187Wh from your Yeti Also, especially when using the AC ponrer output, the Goal Zero Yeti will be converting the energy from the DC power of the battery ta the AC power needed by your device. Although your Goal Zero Yetihas a highly efficient inverter, there is stil some energy lostinthe conversion and you will not get the fu rated capacity ofthe battery. Ifyoure experiencing shorter runtimes, you may want to check the devices power requirements, see Troubleshooting for help Cold Weather Usage Cold temperatures (below freszing] can impact the Goal Zero Yetis battery capacity. If voul be out living off-grid in sub-zero conditions, we recommend keeping your Goal Zero Yeti in an insulated cooler, connected to a power source (solar panels), and charging your gear. The natural heat generated by the Goal Zero Yeti contained in an insulated cooler wéll keep battery capacity at its highest. LED Display + Buttons The built-in LED display indicates battery level. Battery level displays as a number from O to 100. When charging your Goal Zero Yeti you will notice a lightning boit icon that fiashes blue in the display. This indicates the current charge status. Once your Goal Zero Yetiis fully charged, the battery level display will read 100. Note that when you first plug in a power source, whether it a solar panel or a wall charger, the Yeti may take a minute to detect and adjust its charge circuitry before it starts drawing power from the source

Storage and Downtime Maintenance Having your Goal Zero Yeti connected to a power source, like a solar panel or wall plug, between adventures or while in storage keeps its battery healthy and topped off. This prolongs battery life and will ensure your Goal Zero Yeti is charged and ready to go all day, every day. H you can't keep your Goal Zero Yeti plugged into a power source during storage, fully-charge your Goal Zero Yeti every 3 months and store it in a cool, dry place. Failure to maintain your Goal Zero Yeti by following these steps can result in battery damage which will void the product warranty. chnical Specifications Battery: Call Chemistry Pack Capacity Single Cell Equivalent Capacity Lifecycles Shi Management System Ports: USE por (output USE € port (output) USB-C port [nput/outut) Emm port (output, Em) 12V car port (output 120V AC Inverter (output, modified sine wave) 230V AC Invrter (output, mochfied sine wave} Charging Por Impat, mm, blue, circle} General Chainable Weight Dimensions Operating usage temp Cents Warranty Lien NME Up te 187Wh [14.4 up to 134 Up te 52000mAh@ 38 500 Cycles to 80% capacity Charge every 3-6 months MPPT charge controller, law battery protection Sup to 2 AA (12W max, regulated 5-12V, up to 3,DA (18 max, regulated 5-20V, up t0 3,DA (80W max, regulatedl L2V up to 10A (120W mas) 12V up to 10A (120W max) 120VAC 60H:, 1A (120, 200W surgel 230VAC 50Hz,.5A(120W 200W surge) 13-22V,up to 7A(1OOW max

Frequently Asked Questions What type of battery is in my Goal Zero Yeti? Your Goal Zero Yeti uses custom designed Lithium lon. Here are some basic facts about Lithium-ion batteries

2. Lithium-ion batteries can store and release a lot of energy in a short period of time.

The batteries in your Goal Zero Yeti are ina protective enclosure with a sophisticated battery management and protection system controlling its terminals to the outside world.

2. itis critical that your battery does not get wet as moisture and water can get into the

battery cells behind the protection circuitry and bypass that protection How do I know if my device will work with the Goal Zero Yeti? First, youll need to determine the amount of power your device requires. This may require some research on your end, a good internet search or examining the user guide for your device should suffice. Second, you will need to check the capacity for the individual output parts. For exemple, the Goal Zero Yetis AC port is powered by an inverter that allows for 120W of power. This means if your device is puling more than 120W for an extended period of time, the Goal Zero Yetis inverter will shut off. Another number to watch for is the surge rating of your device as compared to that of the port. The Goal Zero Yeti inverter has an advanced surge management system that will maximize its compatibility with various devices, but there wil still be items that will surge at a higher rate, and for a longer time, than the Goal Zero Yeti can manage, in which case the port will turn itself off. Finally, once you know your device is compatible, you'll want to determine how long you be able to power your gear from the Goal Zero Yeti. Here's a quick and dirty lesson in power. All Goal Zero power packs and solar generators have a number in their name, ex. Guide1.0 Plus Power Pack, Goal Zero Yeti 200%. These numbers refer ta the Watt Hours (Wh or the amount of energy that can be stored in each Power Station, and how you know if your gear is compatible. For example, a 200 Wh Power Station should run a 100W light for 2 hours

{200/100-2). If your gear falls within the 200Wh capacity of the Goal Zero Yeti, youll want to check the restrictions on each of the output ports. Another factor in the math is how much power is being converted going from the Goal Zero Yeti battery to the device you are poweringlcherging. In some situations, like when running a 12V device, such as the LAL 350, directly off the 12V port, there will be no conversion and so no additional losses. In using the USB ports to charge a phone, you add a layer of conversion (12V battery in the Goal Zero Yeti is being converted to a SV USB output}, which introduces around 10% of losses When using the inverter, there are twe layers of conversion (12V to high voltage, DC to AC). The least efficient way of using the battery in the Goal Zero Yeti is to use an AC-DC adapter off the AC ports, as is the case if you use a phone wall charger to charge your phone, as it adds yet another layer of conversion in the wall adapter. So when youfre deciding on what to power from your new GOAL ZERO recharger, do some research into your device's watt consumption.
