1. Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing the Kanguru 10-port USB Hub. This ultra
compact hub is USB 2.0 compliant and connects to a Universal Serial Bus
(USB) port on your desktop or notebook computer. The Kanguru 10-Port Hub
is a multi-port hub that allows you to connect up to ten additional USB devices
to your computer. This guide will walk you through the proper use of the 10-
port USB hub.
Note: If your 10-port USB hub came with additional software, please refer to
the software’s documentation for instructions on using the software.

3. Using Your Kanguru Hub
1. Connect the 10-port hub to your computer using the USB cable provided.
Plug the end with the B-type connector into the USB-in port on the hub,
and then connect the other end to your computer.
2. Plug the AC adapter pin into the DC port on the hub, then plug in the other
end to an eletrical outlet or other adequate power supply.
3. Plug your USB devices into any of the 10 available USB ports on the hub.
Note: The USB hub can supply power to low power devices like USB flash
drives. However, if the device you are connecting requires additional power
(i.e. external hard drives, optical disk drives) it cannot be powered by the USB
hub alone and will require the external power source to be connected as you
would through normal use.
4. Safely Disconnecting the Hub
Before removing the Kanguru Hub, make sure that you safely remove any USB
devices that are connected to your computer through the hub.
In order to do this:
1. Click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon in your taskbar and click
on any drives that are connected to your computer through the hub.
When you receive a message confirming that you can safely remove the
hardware, remove the device from the hub.
2. Once all the USB devices have been disconnected from the hub, you can
safely disconnect the hub from your PC.
