ROUBLESHOOTING

While the Solar Power Kit is designed to provide years of trouble-free opera-
tion, occasional problems may arise. If you experience a problem, please check
the troubleshooting tips below before calling technical support.

✦

Solar panel fails to power station and battery is over 5 years old

As the battery ages, it will lose capacity and may completely discharge. If
this is the case, simply replace the battery. (Do not incinerate the used bat-
tery; it may burst. Arrange for proper recycling in your locality.)

✦

Solar panel fails to power station and battery is less than 5 years old

If the solar kit fails to power the station, try the following:
Make sure the panel is not being shaded from the sun.
Open the solar panel shelter and check that the wire connections are secure
and that battery is free from corrosion and excessive deposits on the
terminal.
Clean the solar panel using a water spray, or a soft cloth and soapy water
followed by a clean water rinse.
Check the battery’s voltage with a voltmeter; the battery must have at least
5.5 V to power the station. (More than 6 V indicates an adequately-charged
battery.) Try exposing the kit (with console unplugged) to ample sunlight for
a week, or use a charger designed to recharge a 6 V gel cell battery.

If, after checking this troubleshooting guide, you are unable to solve the
problem, please call our technical support team at (510) 732-7814 for assistance
(M-F, 7 am–5:30 pm PST). Please do not return your unit for repair without
prior authorization.
