WARNING & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised or have been
instructed on how to use the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Do NOT use the Solar Panel Kit to charge non-rechargeable batteries. Doing so may result in harm to
the user and/or damage to the Regulator and/or Solar Panel. Only use the Solar Panel Kit for charging
Standard Lead Acid, Calcium content, Gel & AGM type 12V batteries.

All lead acid batteries produce harmful, explosive gases. The Battery should be mounted in a well
ventilated area, as far as possible from any ignition sources. Do NOT smoke when in the vicinity of
the battery under charge.

Battery acid is a harmful substance. Care should be taken when working with lead acid batteries,
if the acid comes into contact with your eyes or skin, immediately wash the affected area with cold
running water and seek medical assistance. Eye protection and gloves should be worn when handling
lead acid batteries.

The Solar Panel Kit will achieve best results when proper battery maintenance is regularly performed.
This includes but is not limited to checking water and specifi c gravity levels of the battery.

Warning! Check the manufacturers data for your battery and ensure that the ‘Absorption’ voltage of
the profi le you select does not exceed the manufacturers recommended maximum charging voltage.
If the ‘Absorption’ voltage for your battery type is too high, please select another charging profi le.
