Charging Your Goal Zero Yeti; Charging From Solar; Charging From The Wall - GOAL ZERO YETI 3000 Mode D'emploi

Charging Your Goal Zero Yeti

CHARGE ME NOW: Before using or storing, plug your Goal Zero Yeti into the wall until it is
fully charged. Keep your Goal Zero Yeti plugged in when not in use. For more tips and tricks
on keeping your battery healthy, see the BATTERY 101 section.
When charging your Goal Zero Yeti you will notice a battery segment blinking in the
display. This indicates the current charge status. Once your Goal Zero Yeti is fully
charged, all battery segments will be lit and remain solid. As long as there is more power
going into the Goal Zero Yeti than is being pulled from the output ports, the display will
also indicate an estimated time until fully charged. This is an estimated time based on the
power input and output numbers at that time; it will gradually adjust to a shorter or longer
time as the average charge or discharge rates fluctuate.

Charging from Solar

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not exceed 22V input into the integrated input ports or
the Solar Charging Optimization Module; doing so will cause damage to the unit
and potential bodily injury. For questions about solar recharging and proper way
to set up your solar panels, call our solar experts at 888-794-6250.
There are several different inputs you can use when charging your YETI from solar, two
of which are located in the "INPUT" area in the top left corner of the YETI faceplate and
a third one located inside the storage compartment under the top lid. The round 8mm
ports are designed to be used with Goal Zero Solar Panels. The combined input power
maximum is 360W.
1. Place your solar panel where it will get as much direct sunlight as possible. See the
graphic in SOLAR 101 for help.
2. Insert the blue-ringed solar panel plug into one of the INPUT ports, either on the
front of the YETI or in the storage compartment under the top lid. You will know the Yeti
is charging when the blue LED light next to the INPUT port lights up, and the battery
segments in the LCD BATTERY DISPLAY are blinking. The YETI is fully charged when all
battery segments stop blinking and remain solid.

3. You can also connect the YETI to other brands of solar panels using the Anderson
Power Pole port.
4. You can chain multiple Goal Zero Solar Panels together to reduce solar recharge times.
Do not exceed more than 22V input through the integrated input ports.
5. You can charge your YETI with solar panels, and a wall charger at the same time.
Solar Charging Optimization Module
The pre-installed Solar Charging Optimization Module functions as a maximum power
point tracker (MPPT). It actively monitors the energy source you're using to charge the
Goal Zero Yeti Lithium and optimizes the source to maximize power, resulting in up
to 40% faster charge times. You may also notice better charge times from AC when
utilizing the Yeti Lithium's AC charging cable plugged into the module. The three ports
on the right side of the Yeti are part of the Solar Charging Optimization Module. Refer
to the included Solar Charging Optimization manual for more information.

Charging from the Wall

Using the included AC Wall Charger, plug your Goal Zero Yeti into any wall outlet. You
will know the Goal Zero Yeti is charging when the blue LED light next to the INPUT port
turns on, and battery segments in the BATTERY DISPLAY are blinking. The Goal Zero
Yeti is fully charged when all battery segments stop blinking and remain solid. The Goal
Zero Yeti should recharge from the wall in about 25 hours.
1. The AC wall adapter comes in two pieces. Connect the two pieces by plugging the
cable into the box.
2. The AC cable can be plugged into the AC adapter while it's stored inside the
storage compartment with the 8mm DC barrel connector plugged into the port inside
the compartment, or it can be moved out of the compartment and plugged into the
front panel input port.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Goal Zero Yeti Lithium is not compatible recharging from
a 12V source, it can result in damage to the unit, cable, as well as your vehicle.
