CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Solar panel
: The panel should be cleaned periodically with a soft tissue. Regular cleaning of the panel is
advised to maintain optimum conversion of the sun’s energy into direct current.
Pump
: lf, after a period of time, the pump starts to lose power or stops working check for the build up of
sediment, scale or dirt in the filter. Remove the pump cover and the impeller cover. Clean them and the filter by
fresh water.
6. REPLACE BATTERIES
Rechargeable battery becomes less efficient with repeated charge and discharge cycles. If you find that the battery
appears less efficient or does not run as long. We suggest you try to boost charge the battery. To do this,
disconnect the pump for 2 to 3 sunny days to allow the maximum charge to the battery. If after this boost charge
your battery still does not perform to expectations. The battery is beyond its lifespan. You may open the battery
cover to replace 4pcs AA size new rechargeable battery.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
(b)
Pump does not operate even though the solar panel is in full sunlight.
Check:
No connection to the solar panel – check connection to the solar panel; Check connection to the DC pump,
LED light.

Use a small brush or stream of water to remove any debris.
(c)
Pump does operate but there is no water running through the fountainhead.
Check:
build up of sediment or scale in the tubes or the filter- clean the tubes and the filter.
