5. Installation
 Place the regulator in a dry location. Make sure the switch [6] is in the off-
position.
 First connect a 12V rechargeable battery (not included) to connector [9]. Use
the correct polarity!
 Then connect a device or appliance (not included) to connector [4], [7] or
[8], or an AC converter to connector [5]. Make sure the connected load is in
accordance with the specifications of this regulator and switched off.
Note: the power from connector [5] comes straight from the battery and is not
regulated by the regulator.
 Finally connect a solar panel (not included) to connector [11]. Make sure the
connected solar panel is in accordance with the specifications of this regulator.
Use the correct polarity!
 Verify whether all connections are tight and secure.
Do not short circuit or reverse polarity of battery, solar panel or
load, as this will lead to irreversible damage.
 To disconnect the regulator, first switch it off, and then disconnect the solar
panel, the load and finally the battery.
 Note that short connection wires will reduce power losses.
6. Use
 Switch on the regulator with switch [6].
 The digital voltage meter [2] shows the current battery voltage. It can be
switched off to save electricity. To switch it on or off, push the digital voltage
meter on/off switch [3].
 When LED [1] lights up, the regulator is in over-discharge protection mode.
This will be the case when the battery voltage drops below 11±0.5VDC. The
power to the output connectors [5, 7, 8] is cut off to prevent damage to the
battery. Remove the load from the connector and wait until the battery is fully
recharged.
 When the battery voltage is above 14.5±0.5VDC, the regulator goes in over-
charge protection mode. The power from the solar panel input connector
