Unpacking and installing the QIAreach eHub
The QIAreach eHub is delivered ready for use and does not require any hands-on assembly
procedures.
Remove the QIAreach eHub from its delivery box and place on a flat, level surface.
The QIAreach eHub should be charged prior to use. To charge the eHub, connect the USB cable
from the QIAreach eHub USB port to either the supplied power adapter or to a computer. While
charging, the Battery LED indicator flashes a green light. When fully charged, then light changes
to a solid green if the unit is on.

Note
: The QIAreach eHub will charge more quickly when charged through the supplied USB
charging adapter, compared to when it is charged through a computer USB port.
The QIAreach eHub comes with a dust cover to protect the internal ports from dust buildup and
contamination. The cover should always be placed over the front panel of the eHub when not in
use. When ready to operate the eHub, the dust cover can be removed from the front panel and
set aside.
