Solar Panel Care
A critical part of maintaining the solar
powered battery charging system is keeping the
panels clean.
The amount of power that a panel will produce
is directly related to the intensity of sunlight that
reaches the internal crystals. A dirty panel will
allow less light to reach the crystals resulting in
reduced power output. A layer of dust or road
grime can reduce power output by 15 to 25%.
Combining dust with leaves and debris that
cover two or three of the individual cells can
reduce output power by 50 to 75%.
Use of the basic maintenance tips, regular
inspections and regular cleaning will assure
maximum performance from the solar charging
system.
To clean the panels use non-abrasive cleanser
and paper towels. The surrounding environment
and the amount of road dust encountered
determines how frequently the panels should be
cleaned. One to two times a month is preferred.
Tips to Follow:
1. The panels should be cleaned if a film
or a layer of dust is on the windshield.
2. On a bright sunny day, charging current
of 2 or 3 amps can be obtained during
the peak charge cycle.
3. High winds blow dust and debris
causing dirt build up on the panel.
Frequently inspect the panel and clean
as necessary.
CAUTION
To avoid arcing at battery connections
when replacing batteries or performing
battery cable maintenance, be sure
to remove the fuse for the solar panel
charge controller, or cover the solar
panel, for example with a blanket, to
stop the production of electricity at the
source.

Interior Halogen
The bulbs inside the halogen lighting are
replaceable.
To Replace a Bulb:
1. Rotate the outer trim ring
counterclockwise and remove.
2. Carefully grasp bulb and pull from
socket.
3. Use a clean cloth or piece of tissue to
grasp new bulb.
DO NOT
touch bulb
directly as this can cause a “hot spot”
and result in immediate bulb failure.
4. Align contacts of bulb with terminals in
fixture base. Insert bulb until contacts
are firmly seated.
5. Align tabs in trim ring with slots in
fixture base. Rotate lens clockwise
until trim ring locks into place.
CAUTION
DO NOT touch halogen lighting while
on. They can cause a burn. DO NOT
touch replacement bulbs. Oil in the
hands can cause a “hot-spot” to occur. If
the bulb is touched, allow it to cool and
clean the bulb with alcohol.
Map Lights
Operation:
Turn the light on and off by aligning the
pointer on the back of the light with the
ON
and
OFF
indicator on the front portion of the light.
