SolarBook™ Quick Start Guide Model # PP1085/PP1060 04-13
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Please read this manual in its entirety before operating your Bushnell POWERSYNC™ product. It contains important information concerning the setup, operation and maintenance of the product. Keep this manual for future reference. • WARNING: This product should only be used with the supplied charging unit and accessories (not included with all models).
HOW THE SolarBOOK WORKS The SolarBook™ uses an advanced solar panel technology that is flexible, water resistant and durable. An on-board dual lithium ion battery stores electrical energy collected by the solar panel, so it can be used to recharge your portable electronic devices even at night or on a cloudy day. The SolarBook battery can also be charged from an AC outlet, ready to provide immediate power on demand.
CHARGING THE SolarBook FROM THE WALL CHARGER Connect USB cable to micro-USB INPUT port (A) from the USB port on the supplied AC charger (pg. 2), and plug it into a wall outlet (100-240v). Press the Power button. All four LEDs on the Power Gauge (Fig. 1) will light up (for 10 min.) when the SolarBook’s internal battery has been fully charged (you may leave it connected to the charger overnight without risk of overcharging), and you’re ready to connect and charge your device.

While the battery is charging from the AC wall charger or the solar panels, the LEDs will light up in sequence to show the charge level as shown in Fig. 1. The LED indicating the current battery level will blink rapidly while charging.
UNDERSTANDING THE POWERSYNC POWER GAUGE You can also check the current level of the SolarBook’s battery charge anytime by pressing the Power button, even when it is not connected to the charger or an external device. The LEDs will glow steadily to indicate the charge level % as shown in Fig.3., then shut off after 10 seconds. Blinking Fig.
