Solio BOLT Guia De Inicio Rapido

Step 1: Before first solar use, charge your SOLIO from a USB power source.
Your SOLIO came with a 60% charge already on the battery. Feel free to discharge the battery right away, but it is best to charge your SOLIO via a power
source before capturing energy from the sun. A good overnight charge from a power source "initializes" the Li-Poly battery to it' s full capacity and sets it up
for maximum performance.
Step 2: Capture energy - The battery can be charged in two ways:
From a power source. Connect the charging cable to the SOLIO by inserting the Micro USB end of the charging cable into the Micro USB port.
Connect the other end to any USB power source. USB ports can be found nearly everywhere including cars, hotel rooms, the airport, your computer, and
even the wall outlet adapter for your phone. When the SOLIO is charging, the LED Start Button will light up RED.
From the sun. Place the SOLIO in direct sunlight with the solar panels pointed towards the sun. The SOLIO requires 8-10 hours of direct sunlight to
fully charge the battery. When the SOLIO is charging, the LED Start Button will light up RED. To achieve best solar charging results, keep in mind the
following tips:
Use the included pencil to angle your SOLIO towards the sun. Like a sundial, simply point the SOLIO towards the sun and adjust the
angle/direction until the pencil no longer casts a shadow.
Reposition your SOLIO throughout the day. The sun moves about 15 degrees an hour. For best results, repostion your SOLIO frequently using
the sundial method. Your SOLIO converts sunlight into electricity throughout the day, but the sun is typically the most powerful between 10am-2pm. If
you must leave your SOLIO unattended, it' s best to face the SOLIO south - this is the angle that will most likely keep your SOLIO in the sun for the
majority of the day.
Don't charge your SOLIO through a window. Windows filter light, which significantly increases the amount of time it takes to charge your
SOLIO. This includes the windows in your car. While the RED light might come on to indicate charging from behind glass, your SOLIO works best in
direct sunlight.
Overcast days increase the solar charge time. We wish that every day was sunny, but allow more time to charge your SOLIO on cloudy days.
Watch out for shadows. A shadow on even one section of your SOLIO will affect it' s ability to capture energy. Place your SOLIO in a spot free of
shading.
Verify Power Level. To see how much charge your SOLIO has captured, simply press the LED Start Button. The LED Start Button will then flash 1-5
times. 5 flashes = 100-80% charge, 4 flashes = 80-60% charge, 3 flashes = 60-40% charge, 2 flashes = 40-20% charge. One flash indicates that it' s time
to capture more energy. Once charged to 100%, your SOLIO stores power for up to a year.
Step 3: Charge your electronics.
Connect to the SOLIO. Using the USB charging cable that came with the electronic device that you want to power, simply plug the correct end of the
cable into your device and plug the USB end directly into the USB port on the SOLIO. Press the LED Start Button once to begin discharge. The LED
Start Button will blink intermittenly to indicate power is being discharged. Often the electronic device has an indicator that will inform you that a charge
is being initiated.
Switching modes (For iPhone, iPod, iPad). If you are powering an Apple product, switch your SOLIO into the mode optimized for Apple products.
Simply hold down the LED Start Button for 5 seconds and release. The LED Start Button will switch colors. BLUE = Apple mode while GREEN =
Normal(CTIA) mode. Repeat the process to change modes again. NOTE: You will not damage your device by using the 'wrong' charging mode. Use of
the incorrect mode may only cause some devices to refuse a charge, or not charge as efficiently as they should.
Turning your SOLIO Off. To power off the SOLIO, press the LED Start Button once. NOTE: The SOLIO will not overcharge your device. Once your
device' s battery is full, SOLIO will stop charging although the LED Start Button will continue to blink. If SOLIO is accidentally left on, the battery will not
drain so the power will not be wasted.
