ANT::::: Please read the following instructions before operating the
SolarPort unit.
*
ALWAYS
connect the power cable and adapters first, then the electronic device last. Otherwise it may cause a short circuit.
*
DO NOT
attempt to recharge NON-RECHARGEABLE alkaline batteries.
* When using the SolarPort in a vehicle, make sure the vehicle’s temperature is within the allowable specified range (see Specifications).
Step 1: Testing
Open the SolarPort by pressing the small black latch at the front of the unit. Place in full
sunlight and test by pressing the yellow test button to the right of the latch. The green LED
will light up indicating sufficient sunlight is present, and your unit is working properly.
Step 2: Positioning
Always select a location where your SolarPort will get the maximum sunlight. Tilt the
SolarPort towards the sun for best performance.
Step 3: Window Mounting
The SolarPort comes with 2 suction cups
(2)
. This allows you to mount your SolarPort
directly to a window. Before mounting to a window, secure the suction cups in the holes on
the inside of the frame (Fig. 1).
Step 4: Selecting 6V/12V
On the back of the SolarPort, you will find a
6V/12V switch. Select the 6V position when
connecting to electronics requiring 6V or
less (e.g. MP3, minidisc players, digital
cameras and electronic games). Select the
12V position when connecting to electronics
requiring 12V, or when using the female
socket adapter cable
(1)
. Always check the
electronic’s specifications before using the SolarPort.
Instructions
Proper Adapter Connection
Cellular Phone Connection
In the 6V position (recommended for faster charging (Fig. 4), the female socket adapter
cable
(1)
plugs into the female socket
(B)
. Then, plug the male cigarette adapter plug
(*not included) into the female socket adapter cable (Fig. 3). Plug the male cigarette
adapter plug into your cell phone.
All connections should be made correctly before plugging in your cell phone. If your cell
phone does not indicate that it is charging, while in the 6V position, switch to the 12V
position.

Start by connecting the power
cable
(3)
to the female socket
(B)
of the SolarPort. Then,
connect the adapter
(4
-

that best
fits the electronic’s power jack to the power
cable. Connect the adapter to the electronic
device.
VERY IMPORTANT:
Most SolarPort users in North America must match the adapter
(4 - 10)
to the power cable
(3)
,
+ to + (positive to positive)
if their electronic device
displays the symbol . This symbol is usually found next to the power output of
the electronic device. Conversely, most SolarPort users in Europe must match adapters to
the power cable
+ to - (positive to negative)
if their electronic device displays this
symbol . No charging will occur if the incorrect polarity is used.
