CHARGING THE PM400
Connect the PM400 using the included USB Charge Ca-
ble to the USB IN port and the USB car charger. It can
also be recharged from any USB powered port, like an AC
adapter, car charger, laptop and more. The USB IN port is
rated at 2.1 Amps to ensure safe and efficient charging
of the internal lithium battery. Due to FCC regulations,
we recommend not to charge and discharge the unit at
the same time.
CHARGING TIMES
The time to recharge a PM400 will differ based on the
discharge level and the power source used. Actual re-
sults may vary due to battery conditions.
CHARGING YOUR USB DEVICES
You can recharge virtually any USB device, like a smart-
phone. Connect the included USB Charge Cable to the
USB OUT port and connect to your USB device.
