1. INPUT shows the amount of power (watts) going into the Goal Zero Yeti while
charging. If charging from solar, you’ll see the watts change as you reposition the panels
into/out of the sunlight.
a. LO will be displayed if power flow is below a measurable amount.
2. OUTPUT shows the amount of power (watts) your devices are using while plugged
into the Goal Zero Yeti.
3. TIME TO EMPTY/FULL shows the amount of time before your Goal Zero Yeti is
completely charged or empty, depending on if the net amount of power going into the
Goal Zero Yeti is positive or negative.
4. BATTERY LEVEL shows 5 segments, approximating 20% - 40% - 60% - 80%
-100% capacity. As you use your Goal Zero Yeti, segments will disappear from the
display, indicating the remaining charge. When charging your Goal Zero Yeti you will
notice a battery segment blinking. 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 adjust
to a shorter or longer time if the charge or discharge rates fluctuate. Note that when you
first plug in a power source, whether it’s a solar panel or a wall charger, the Yeti may take
a minute to detect and adjust its charge circuitry before it starts drawing power from
the source.
Pressing the UNIT button will scroll through different output and power consumption
settings.
Pressing and holding the UNIT button will reset the WATT HOUR output counter.
Pressing the INFO button will alternate the screen between showing the detailed battery
state of charge percentage and the Time to Empty/Full.
How to use your Goal Zero Yeti:
1. Press the power button located above each port you will be using. **When not using
certain ports, make sure to turn them off to conserve power.
2. You’ll know the port is turned on when the green LED light on the button is illuminated.
3. Plug in your gear for power anywhere life takes you.
4. If possible, keep your Goal Zero Yeti plugged into a power source when not in use.
5. You can charge your Goal Zero Yeti, and run your gear at the same time.
Best-Use Strategy:
When charging gear with your Goal Zero Yeti, take note of the LCD Battery Display. If you plug
in devices that have a high power requirement (a large refrigerator), the charge level of your Goal
Zero Yeti can drop very quickly and you may not get exactly 1000Wh of energy. Also, especially
when using the AC power output, the Goal Zero Yeti will be converting the energy from the DC
power of the battery to the AC power needed by your device. Although your Goal Zero Yeti has
a highly efficient inverter, there is still some energy lost in the conversion and you will not get the
full rated capacity of the battery. If you’re experiencing shorter runtimes, you may want to check
the device’s power requirements, see TROUBLESHOOTING for help.
Cold Weather Usage:
Cold temperatures (below freezing) can impact the Goal Zero Yeti’s battery capacity. If
you’ll be out living off-grid in sub-zero conditions, we recommend keeping your Goal Zero
Yeti in an insulated cooler, connected to a power source (solar panels), and charging your
gear. The natural heat generated by the Goal Zero Yeti contained in an insulated cooler
will keep battery capacity at its highest.
