WARNINGS

Read, understand, and follow these instructions to ensure safe operation. Failure to observe these warnings can result in risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury, and/or property damage.

  •  DO NOT use the product if it is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified equipment may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire or risk of injury.
  • DO NOT subject to impacts or drops. The housing may not show signs of damage, but internal components may have been compromised. It is advisable to replace the unit if any such severe events occur.
  • DO NOT expose to open flame, heat sources, equipment that produces heat, or extremes in environmental temperature.
  • DO NOT attempt to repair the solar panel. There are no user-serviceable parts.
  • DO NOT immerse in water or other liquids. Avoid spilling liquids into any ports or openings on the device.
  • DO NOT let solid foreign objects, such as dirt or job site debris, get into any ports or openings on the device.
  • DO NOT route power cables through areas where they can be stepped on or pinched by other objects.
  •  DO NOT attempt to insert other USB connector types into USB-A port. NOT intended for use with plug types or adapters not listed on the product label.
  • STOP use immediately if any wires become loose or electronic components are exposed.

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING: Be sure the solar panel is disconnected from all power sources and devices. Use a clean, dry, soft, lint-free cloth to wipe down the solar panel surface. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. If necessary, dampen a clean cloth with a mix of mild soap and water to clean the solar panel surface.
NOTE – Scratching the solar panel surface will impact the
performance of the panel.

STORAGE: Store in cool temperatures and mild humidity. Avoid storing the device in direct sunlight while not in use (see GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS). Leaving the device in a vehicle or other confined spaces in extremely hot temperatures can lead to a decrease in service life, overheating, or fire. Extremely cold temperatures below the specified storage range can also harm the performance and service life of the device. Keep away from corrosive chemicals and gases. After taking the device out of storage, inspect visually to make sure the device and
all accessories look satisfactory. Allow the device to return to ambient conditions before using.

KLEIN-TOOLS-29250-60W-Solar-Panel-fig4OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

HOW TO USE:
Unfold the panel and align to the sun. Ensure that no part of the panel is in the shade. Connect the output cable (APP®/DC) to the charging port of the portable battery and begin charging. If using a Klein Tools KTB series portable battery with only an 8mm round port charging input, use the supplied APP® to 8mm adapter (P/N P000205) to connect the panel and begin charging.

USB Charging
The solar panel has the capability to supply regulated 5V output through the USB-A port. Connect your device that charges via USB-A (5V) to the USB-A Port.

Solar Panel Placement

KLEIN-TOOLS-29250-60W-Solar-Panel-fig3
Place the solar panel flat on the ground, or utilizing the kickstand(s) on the reverse side, raise the panel to point toward the sun for improved solar charging capability.
The power output module has three power output indicators 8 that may be used to help position the panel to deliver optimal power. The panels are in an optimal position when the three indicators are illuminated. It is only possible to illuminate all three indicators when the device is connected to a load capable of drawing more than 25W of continuous power.
NOTE – Regardless of panel positioning, if a load draws less than 10W (including no load), only one indicator will illuminate. If a load draws from 11W-25W of continuous power, only two indicators will illuminate.

CHAINING
Connecting an additional P/N29250 60W panel is allowable using the input port (APP®) connector. The input connector is unregulated, allowing a direct pass- through of power from the additional solar panel to the output port.
NOTE – When connecting additional panels, please consider the limitations of the device charging via the APP ®connector.
