Designed to be almost maintenance-free, the AV-C310-ILA and AV-C410-ILAB require minimal attention,
though the following maintenance and servicing information is provided to help ensure the life of your
Avlite Systems product.
1. Cleaning Solar Panels- occasional cleaning of the solar panels may be required. Using a cloth and
warm soapy water, wipe off any foreign matter before rinsing the panels with fresh water.
2. Battery Check- inspection of batteries should be performed every three years (minimum) to ensure that
the charger, battery and ancillary electronics are functioning correctly. Using a voltage meter, check
that the battery voltage is at least 12 volts under 100MA load, and ensure all terminals are clear of
foreign matter.
3. O-Ring Check- inspect the condition of the o-ring for damage, wear or if it is brittle, and replace if
necessary. The o-ring should be a rubber texture to ensure a complete and even seal.
The AV-C310-ILA and AV-C410-ILAB have an internal battery compartment, which provides the user with
the ability to change the battery after years of operation.
