Cleaning the Solar-Breeze
After a period of weeks or months, the Solar-Breeze may begin to accumulate calcium
or mineral deposits along the water line and also around the edges of the solar panels.
Before these deposits become severe and either cause damage to the unit or impact its
performance, we recommend that you clean the Solar-Breeze using the following
procedure:
Use a sponge or damp cloth to wipe down the Solar-Breeze with a dilute mixture of
CLR and water to break down the mineral deposits.
Thoroughly wash the Solar-Breeze using a mixture of warm water and soap.
Dry the Solar-Breeze using a dry cloth.
If desired, use a standard household glass cleaner to clean and shine the solar
panels.
The procedure for cleaning debris from the collection area was covered in Section 8 of
this guide.

Trouble-shooting the Solar-Breeze
a.
Adjusting the pool water level
The Solar-Breeze works best when the front bumper wheels can run freely along
the side of the pool. When pools have a lip or overhang, the front bumper
wheels or the top edge of the Solar-Breeze may get stuck under the lip or
overhang. This may result in frequent reverse navigations or, in some cases,
cause the unit to get stuck and not be able to move, even when it goes into
reverse. This problem can normally be addressed by either raising the water
level of the pool by 1” so that the front bumper wheels run along the lip of the
pool, or by lowering the water level 1” so that the front bumper wheels and top
edge of the Solar-Breeze are completely clear of the lip.
