The LCD screen will only display the battery level. If you do not turn on any function, the screen will automatically
turn off after a few seconds
2.
At 20%, the battery should be recharged as soon as possible. It can still power AC appliances, LED lights,
phone accessories, and most 12-volt accessories for a limited time, but it will not be sufficient for the boosting
function. Avoid letting the battery fully discharge, as this could cause damage.
BATTERY SPECIFICATION
This unit is equipped with a 2 x 12 VDC 12 Amp-hour maintenance free, sealed lead acid rechargeable battery,
which has a normal life expectancy of up to 500 charging cycles and will give many years of dependable service
if properly cared for following the directions above. In the event that the battery needs replacement in the future,
the unit will need to be opened up; this service should only be performed by a Promate Service technician.
Replacement batteries may be purchased from an electrical supply store. Old batteries should be disposed of
properly and safely. Please contact your local solid waste authority for recycling information.
EXTERNAL BATTERY CONNECTION
1. It is possible to increase the operating power of the Powerstation by connecting it to an external 12V lead acid
battery with external battery connection cable.
2. It can be used as a jump-start system during road emergencies.

OPERATING AS A POWER SUPPLY
The Promate240
+
is capable of supplying power for 220V AC household devices and 12V DC devices up to the
rated capacity of the unit. The length of time the product will operate depends on the condition of the battery and the
current draw of the appliance. Low wattage appliances can be operated for several hours while higher wattage
products will operate for less time.
220V AC SOCKET

Introduction
The Powerstation is equipped with a 400-Watt power inverter that converts the power from the internal battery to
standard 220 Volt AC household power. The Power Inverter supplies 400 watts of continuous power with 800 watts
of surge power. When you turn on an appliance or a tool that operates using a motor or tubes, it requires an initial
surge of power to start up. This surge of power is referred to as the “starting load” or “peak load”. Once started, the
tool or appliance requires less power to continue to operate. This is referred to as the “continuous load” in terms of
power requirements.
You will need to determine how much power your tool or appliance requires to start up and how much power it
requires for continuous running. Power consumption is rated either in wattages (watts) or in amperes (amps).
Multiply: AMPS X 220 (AC voltage) = WATTS
This formula yields a close approximation of the continuous load of your appliances.
Multiply: WATTS x 2 = Starting Load
