INSTRUCTIONS
160W Folding Solar Panel will perform at its peak when it faces directly towards the sun.
FOLD OUT SUPPORT LEGS
• Pull the support legs away from the Solar Panel. The support
legs will then sit in the desired angle to get the most power
from the sun.
CONNECTING YOUR SOLAR PANEL
• Now that the panel is setup facing directly towards the sun.
Connect the positive and negative clips to your battery.
• Always connect the battery clips to the battery rst, before
connecting to the solar panel. The solar controller will then
illuminate
DISCONNECTING & STORING YOUR SOLAR
PANEL
• Disconnect the solar panel off the battery before removing
the battery clips off the battery.
• Roll the wire neatly into the space behind the solar panel,
make sure not to twist or kink the wiring in an unnatural way.
• Place the battery wire separately in the front pocket of the
carry bag.
• Note: Never store your solar panel with the battery wire
connected to the panel.
TIP
For optimal performance through-out the day, set the panel to approximately 30° from the ground.
The range between 10° and 40° will gain the best power absorption across the course of the day.
