• Installation on caravans and motor homes.
• Stationary or mobile use
• Extreme operating conditions (expedition use)
• Wind speeds up to 225 km/h

The solar panel is not suitable for:

• Mains operation
• Portable applications

The energy output of connected solar panels may not exceed the maximum output stated in the technical data.

This product is only suitable for the intended purpose and application in accordance with these instructions.

This manual provides information that is necessary for proper installation and/or operation of the product. Poor installation and/or improper operating or maintenance will result in unsatisfactory performance and a possible failure.

Operation

For optimal use of the solar system, note the following:

The solar system generates different amounts of electricity depending on the amount of sunlight during the day. The more sunlight falls on the solar system, the more electricity is generated.

The amount of electricity generated is affected by the following conditions:

• Cloudy weather
• Seasonal solar radiation
• Variations in the angle of the sun
• Shading or soiling of the solar system

The performance of the solar system decreases the more the solar panels heat up. Ensure adequate ventilation and avoid excessive solar radiation.
