SAFETY INFORMATION
INCLUDED IN THE KIT
• Keep your solar blanket, Pulse Width Modulation controller & battery away from any liquids
at all times.
• Keep the solar blanket and controller clean at all times (always check connectors to ensure
they’re free of grit before plugging them in).
• This appliance is not intended to be used by people (including children) with reduced
physical or mental capabilities, or those who are under the inuence of drugs or alcohol.
• Do NOT use the solar blanket to charge non-rechargeable batteries. Doing so may result
in harm to the user and/or damage the solar blanket and controller. Only use the provided
solar blanket, regulator and adaptors/ wiring provided in the kit.
• All lead-acid batteries produce harmful, explosive gases. The battery should be mounted in
a well-ventilated area, as far as possible from any ignition sources. Do NOT smoke or have a
naked ame in the vicinity of the battery under charge.
• Never tamper with or pull any component of the solar blanket, regulator or wiring apart. If
you do so, you will void the warranty.
• Always store the solar blanket folded, protected from the weather and with good ventilation.
• Ensure nothing sharp or heavy could potentially damage the solar blanket during transport
or storage.
• Only use the solar blanket to charge 12V batteries.
• The PWM controller is only suitable for regulating solar modules.
• The PWM controller is only suitable for lead-acid batteries: OPEN, AGM & GEL. The Solar
Blanket & Controller should not be used with nickel metal hydride, lithium ion or other
batteries.
• Never connect another charging source to the PWM controller.
• Do not place solar blanket on your vehicle’s bonnet or paintwork during use.

USING THE PWM CONTROLLER
SAFETY
• Keep your Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) controller & battery away from any liquids at all
times.
• Keep the controller clean at all times (always check connectors to ensure they’re free of grit
before plugging them in).
• Do NOT use the solar controller to charge non-rechargeable batteries. Doing so may result
in harm to the user and/or damage the solar module, battery and controller. Only use the
provided solar blanket, regulator and adaptors/wiring provided in the kit.
• All lead-acid batteries produce harmful, explosive gases. The battery should be mounted in
a well-ventilated area, as far as possible from any ignition sources. Do NOT smoke or have a
naked ame in the vicinity of the battery under charge.
• Never tamper with or pull any component of the regulator apart. Doing so will void the
warranty.
• The PWM controller is only suitable for regulating solar modules.
• The PWM controller is only suitable for lead-acid batteries: LEAD, AGM, GEL & LITHIUM.
The Solar Blanket & Controller should not be used with nickel metal hydride batteries.
• Never connect more than 1 charging source to the PWM controller.

OPERATING THE PWM CONTROLLER
PWM CONTROLS
Please note: not following these instructions may cause damage to the PWM controller. Ensure
that you attach the positive (+) and negative (-) wires to the appropriate terminals.
1. Connect the positive and negative wires from the battery into the terminals with the battery
icon ensuring polarity is correct.
2. The screen should turn on and display the battery voltage.
3. Connect positive and negative solar input into the two terminals with the solar icon, ensuring
polarity is correct.
4. The controller is now ready to use.
5. For additional load circuit, connect positive and negative wires to the terminals with the
lightbulb icon on the controller.
NOTE: Ensure a fuse is used on battery positive wiring to prevent short circuits and
potential damage to the unit or your vehicle.
