Solar Panel Operation

For extended off-grid use, keep the solar panels deployed and facing the sun.

1. Unfold all solar panels completely and lay them flat or prop them up.
2. Position the unit so the solar panels face direct sunlight. Avoid shadows.
3. The LCD screen will show the sun icon and the input wattage (e.g., "5W-15W").
4. The unit can charge its internal battery while simultaneously powering connected devices, if sunlight is sufficient.
5. For best results, angle the panels towards the sun and clean the surface with a dry cloth if dusty.

WARNING! Do not stare directly at the reflective surface of the panels. Keep away from children and pets to avoid pinching from folding mechanism.

Safety Features

Built-in protections for safe operation: Over-charge, Over-discharge, Over-current, Short-circuit, and Over-temperature protection. The unit will automatically shut down output if a fault is detected.

Maintenance & Storage

Clean with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use chemicals or abrasives.

1. Battery Care: For long-term storage, charge the battery to 50-60%. Store in a cool, dry place.
2. Solar Panels: Keep surfaces clean. Wipe gently with a damp cloth if necessary, then dry immediately.
3. General: Do not disassemble. Avoid impacts, water submersion, and exposure to fire.

CAUTION! Do not attempt to replace the internal battery. This voids the warranty and can be hazardous.
