Multi-Voltage Power Bank and Charger

OWNER’S MANUAL — Please read before using this equipment.

Your RadioShack Multi-Voltage Power Bank and Charger combines an AC to DC power adapter, charger, and DC to DC converter to provide a portable power supply. Whether you are at home or in oth- er countries, you can use it as a battery charger for Nickel-Metal Hy- dride (Ni-MH) AA batteries or an AC to DC adapter with AC power input ranging from 90V to 240V. When traveling, you can install four Ni-MH AA batteries and the DC to DC converter provides voltages of 3/4.5/6/7.5/9V to your portable DC device. Its features include:

Overload/Short Circuit Protection — protects the charger and bat- teries from damage caused by overloads and short circuits.

Charging Protection — detects battery charge status and stops charging when the batteries are fully charged.

Safety Guard Timer — automatically stops charging after 4 hours to prevent battery overcharging.

Reverse Polarity Protection — protects the charger and batteries from damage due to incorrectly installed batteries.

Three LED Status Indicators — let you know if the power bank is charging, receiving power or providing DC output.

Your charger is ETL listed to UL standards and meets all applicable FCC standards.
