YourPeak will automatically power off after your devices are unplugged. Section II: Charging Peak Charge from the wall or your computer The fastest way to charge Peak is via the fold-out wall prongs– simply plug it in to a wall outlet. When you are awayfrom an outlet, connect Peak to yourcomputer’sUSB port and charge via the on-board green USB input cable on the side of the unit. Times to charge the Peak vary based on what it’s plugged in to. You can expect a full charge from the wall in about four hours or from a standard notebook USB port in about thirteen hours. Note: It is normal for your Peak to be warm to the touch while in use. 5 Section III: Charging Devices Peak uses an automatic device detection system. When devices are plugged in, Peak provides charging power until they are unplugged or the Peak runs out of energy. Up to three devices can be charged simultaneously. Peakhas an automatic load balancing system that will prioritize its outputs to optimize charging. In most cases, Peak will charge 3 devices at once. In the event that three high- powered devices with depleted batteries are plugged in, the Apple 30-pin Connector is provided priority amongst all others, followed by the USB port, and then the Micro-USB connector. Once the high-powered Apple device (iPad, iPhone) nears a full charge, the device connected to the USB-Aport will begin charging. Once charged, the Micro-USB device will begin charging. Low-powered Apple devices like iPod nano and iPod classic don't draw as much power, so multiple devices can charge simultaneously. The Peak Apple Connector is compatible with iPhone and most iPod models. The Micro-USB connector and USB ports support the majority of mobile devices including smartphones, tablets, Bluetooth® headsets, portable navigation devices, MP3 players, and more. 6 Section IV: Checking Battery Level To check how much energy is available, press the level check button. LEDs next to the button will illuminate indicating approximately how much energy is available for use. Additionally, if voice is enabled, Peak will tell you how muchenergy is available.

Your device will begin to sync. Note: Sync is not supported through the USB output port or the Micro-USB connector. 7 Section VI: Sound Modes Peak has built-in voice and tone capability.

Section VIII: Product Specifications Battery: 6000 mAh Lithium Polymer Input: AC: 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz USB-A: 5 VDC, 2.1 A Output: Apple 30-pin: 5 V, 2.1 A USB-A: 5 V, 1.0 A Micro-USB: 5 V, 1.0 A TotalOutputCurrent:5V,3.1A 9 Section IX: Troubleshooting My device is not charging: Confirm that your device is properly connected to the appropriate connector and the Peak itself has energy (by pressing the level check button). LEDs indicate how much energy is available for use. If multiple devices are connected, disconnect them and connect only the device that is not charging. Automatic load balancing charges devices in priority of Apple 30-pin Connector, USB port, followed by Micro-USB connector. If the multiple devices need more power than Peak has available, some devices may not begin to charge until others finish charging. Not all mobile devices are the same in the way they charge. Some, namely Samsung Galaxy tablets, require a proprietary USB port and will not charge from your Peak. My device doesn’t sync with iTunes: Refer to Section V: Syncing. I don’t want the voice or tone function on: Refer to Section VI: Sound Modes.
