MAINTAINING A BATTERY
1. Ensure that all of the solar panel components are in place and in good working condition, for example, the plastic boots on the battery clips.
2. Decide whether you are going to use the 12 volt accessory plug or the 50 Amp battery clips to connect the solar panel to the vehicle. Connect the proper cable to the
solar panel making sure the connection is secure.
• If using the 12 volt accessory plug, plug the connector into the vehicle's power outlet making sure the connection is secure.
• If using the 50 Amp battery clips, connect the battery following the precautions listed in sections 6 and 7.
3. Place the solar panel in the sun. For optimum solar panel output, face the front (glass) side of the solar panel towards the sun, making sure there are no shadows
being cast on the panel by the vehicle or other objects. The best orientation to place the solar panel is in a south to north direction with the panel tilted at a suitable
angle. The best angle would be the same as your local latitude.
4. To disconnect, reverse the procedure.
NOTE: The maintain mode technology allows you to safely maintain a healthy battery for extended periods of time. However, problems with the battery, electrical problems
in the vehicle, improper connections or other unanticipated conditions could cause excessive current draws. As such, occasionally monitoring your battery and the
maintaining process is recommended.
USING THE QUICK-CONNECT CABLE ASSEMBLIES
Connect either of the two output cable assemblies to the solar panel. Do not place on wet ground, anywhere it could be accidently stepped on or in a place or position
where it could fall while being used. Never use the output cables together or for other applications, as reverse polarity and/or overcharge conditions will occur.
50 AMP BATTERY CLIP CABLE ASSEMBLY
1. Connect the end of the solar panel output cable to the end of the 50 amp battery clips cable.
2. Follow the steps in sections 6 and 7 to connect the output clips to the battery.
3. After a good electrical connection is made to the battery, place the solar panel in the sun, per the instructions in step 4 of the Solar Panel Location section.
12V ACCESSORY PLUG CABLE ASSEMBLY
Maintain your battery without lifting the hood.
1. Connect the end of the 12V accessory plug cable to the solar panel.
2. Insert the 12V accessory plug into the 12V accessory outlet.
3. Route the power cord from the solar panel through the vehicle's open window.
4. Place the solar panel in the sun, per the instructions in step 4 of the Solar Panel Location section.

11. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

11.1 After use and before performing maintenance, unplug and disconnect the solar panel (see sections 6, 7 and 8).
11.2 Use a dry cloth to wipe all battery corrosion and other dirt or oil from the battery clips, cords and the solar panel.
11.3 The solar panel uses a glass substrate; handle with care.
11.4 Always keep the glass surface clean using a soft cloth in order to ensure its maximum output.
11.5 Ensure that all of the solar panel components are in place and in good working condition, for example, the plastic boots on the battery clips.
11.6 Servicing does not require opening the unit, as there are no user-serviceable parts.
11.7 All other servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel.

12. MOVING AND STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

12.1 Store the solar panel unplugged, in an upright position.
12.2 Store inside, in a cool, dry place.
12.3 Do not store the clips clipped together, on or around metal, or clipped to cables.
12.4 If the solar panel is moved around the shop or transported to another location, take care to avoid/prevent damage to the cords, clips and solar panel. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury or property damage.
