My yeti is not responding or is exhibiting odd behavior what should I do?
Try resetting the unit by holding the Units and Info button for 3 seconds to reset your
Yeti. Check your Yeti to see if the issue is resolved after the reset.
My new Yeti does not initially charge to 100%, it only charges to 95% what's going
on?

charge parameters.

for fast charging as well as vehicle integration.

During the update process, my Yeti is stuck in a loop and keeps trying to update
over and over unsuccessfully. How do I fix this?
Try resetting the Yeti following the instructions from Q1 and restart the update
process. This should fix the issue.
What does the snowflake icon and the thermometer icon mean?
If your yeti displays the thermometer icon and a warning of HOT or COLD, this means
you are either approaching or have exceeded the temperature thresholds of the
Yeti. A warning of "cold" means you will need to warm the yeti in order to resume full
functionality while "hot" means you need to cool the unit.

have my Yeti connected to a charger but it is at 98% and not charging, what is going
on?
In order to get the most life out of your battery we make sure to not stress the battery
pack at the full state of charge. The battery will charge to 100% and then stop, self-
discharge over time to 98% before the charge will engage again. If you are wanting to
make sure your Yeti is completely topped off for upcoming use, unplugging and then
re-plugging in your input cable should reengage the input and start the charge again

the risks associated with 3rd party panels.
My yeti is not responding or is exhibiting odd behavior what should I do?
Your Goal Zero Yeti uses custom designed Lithium Ion. Here are some basic facts about
Lithium Ion batteries:
1. . Lithium Ion batteries can store and release a lot of energy in a short period of time.
The batteries in your Goal Zero Yeti are in a protective enclosure with a sophisticated
battery management and protection system controlling its terminals to the outside
world.
2. . It is critical that your battery does not get wet as moisture and water can get into
the battery cells behind the protection circuitry and bypass that protection.
