1. BRIEF INTRODUCTION
For I/O capability, the AC200MAX features higher continuous output power at
2,200W from its pure sine wave inverter, 100W PD3.0 USB-C port, upgraded
MPPT controller which now handles up to 900W solar input, and built-in 30A
NEMA TT-30 outlet designed for RV crowds especially.
Most significantly, considering customers' feedback, comments, and product
upgrade need, the BLUETTI AC200MAX now supports Bluetooth connection and
the new BLUETTI Smartphone App (iOS & Android) remote control.
Furthermore, the AC200MAX also supports up to 2 expandable battery packs,
using either the BLUETTI B230 or B300. With 2 BLUETTI B300, the capacity of
AC200MAX then will expand to a massive 8192Wh to run your every essential
needs at home or on the go for hours, days, or even more than a week!
2. ABBREVIATION
● BMS: Battery Management System
● MPPT: Maximum Power Point Tracking
● SOC: State of Charge
● AC: Alternating Current
● DC: Direct Current
● PV: Solar Panel(s) Charging (Photovoltaic)
● Grid: Home Power Supplied by Utility
● T500: 500W Adapter
● DOD: Depth of Discharge
● ECO Mode: A power-saving setting for the AC200MAX. When it is on, the
AC power will automatically turn off over 4 hours low load(≤50W) or no
load to save power drain.
3. SAFETY INSTRUCTION
● DO keep the AC200MAX away from the fire and heat.
● DO operate the AC200MAX in a dry and well-ventilated place. If it gets
moisturized or damp, please dry it thoroughly before use.
● DO NOT obstruct fan openings to ensure proper ventilation in use. Otherwise,
permanent damage to the AC200MAX may occur.
● DO NOT move the unit while operating as vibrations and sudden impacts
02
BLUETTI
may lead to poor connections to the hardware inside.
● Please use the original charger and cables only designed for the AC200MAX.
The company shall not be liable for damage caused by third-party equipment,
which also may invalidate your warranty.
● Please carefully read the operating instructions of the electrical products to
be connected. Failure to operate the electrical products properly may result in
accidents or injuries.
● Please use the AC200MAX power station carefully and keep children away
from it.
● WARNING: In case of fire, ONLY dry powder fire extinguisher works.
● WARNING: DO NOT insert foreign objects into any ports of the AC200MAX

(2) Indoor
Refrigerator, kitchen devices such as kettle, toaster, blender, coffee maker, rice

13. EXAMPLES OF LOADS
(1) Most electrical appliances in the market apply to the specifications of
12V/30A(XT60 or SPC45), 12V/10A, cigarette lighter, USB-A, and USB-C output
ports of the AC200MAX. But still the charging of some products may activate
the overload protection if it generates an instantaneous power at the moment
of starting.
(2) The AC200MAX can power electrical products with 2200W or less rated
power. Though the figure is under 2200W, overload protection will still be
activated when the appliance generates a massive instantaneous start-up
power. Therefore, it's recommended to apply the AC200MAX to electrical
products with lower-rated power.
(3) If an output over-current, overload, or short circuit occurs, the AC200MAX
will turn off the corresponding output port. Then it will automatically start again
(at an interval of 20s). Suppose there is still an over-current, overload, or short
circuit, the output port will be locked and it then needs manual troubleshooting.
If the output repeatedly stops, turn the equipment off. Please get in touch with
the seller or maintenance group first for professional help.
(4) When the battery level drops to 0%, the DC and AC output will
automatically turn off, and ONLY when the battery power is recharged to more
than 5%, the DC and AC output will be turned on again. Please check the
battery level before using the AC/DC output to protect and enhance battery
cycle life.
(5) This AC200MAX supports charging and discharging simultaneously, and
please keep the equipment laid flat during use, charging, and discharging.
