FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS • Can I use the mini-g straight away without charging? • Yes, the mini-g comes 30% pre-charged and is ready to use straight out the box. However, we do recommend full charging the mini-g within 7 days of receiving it, and at least once every 4 months thereafter. • • It will automatically turn off after 1 minute. • What are connector tips? Connector tips are attachments to make the mini-g compatible with various devices.
PRODUCT DISPOSAL CERTIFICATIONS • There’s a strange symbol on my screen. When connected to solar, you will see this symbol on the LCD screen (5). While in this mode the DC out will not function. This is so the mini-g collects as much power as possible from the solar panel. • v Can I simultanously charge from the DC out? Yes, you can simultaneously charge and use a device at the same time as long as the charging voltage in is the same as the charging voltage out.
