6) Slide the wire from the right-hand solar panel inside the
groove on the back of the left-hand solar panel.
Feed through the solar panel wires inside the casing via
7)
the drilled hole (C).
Protect the wires from the hole edges by positioning the
8)
protective foam pads at that point.
Mount the left-hand solar panel in the 2 other drilled holes
9)
(D), using aluminium pop rivets with diameter 4 mm and
max length 6 mm.
Remove the protective films from the photovoltaic cells.

3.2.2 Glue mounting
Somfy does not recommend glue mounting the solar panel,
especially on non-smooth or porous surfaces such as
plastering, concrete, wood.
The ambient temperature during gluing must be between
20°C and 38°C.
Caution! Thoroughly clean the mounting locations on the
roller shutter casing with an isopropyl alcohol and water
mixture (50/50) based solvent or with a heptane based
solvent.
Observe the safety instructions for solvent use during the
cleaning phases.
3.2.2.1 Scenario with 1 solar panel
Mark the mounting location on the front of the casing as
1)
per the diagram opposite.
Drill 1 hole with diameter 15 mm (E) on the front of the
2)
casing as per the diagram opposite.
Feed through the solar panel wire inside the casing via
3)
the drilled hole (E).
Protect the wire from the hole edges by positioning the
4)
protective foam at that point.
Remove the protective paper from the adhesive on the
5)
back of the solar panel.
Press the solar panel frame uniformly against the casing
6)
to mount the solar panel.
Caution! Never press on the photovoltaic cells: they could
break.
Remove the protective film from the photovoltaic cells.
7)
3.2.2.2 Scenario with 2 solar panels
Always place the two solar panels one beside the other,
rather than one on top of the other.
Mark the two mounting locations on the front of the casing
1)
as per the diagram opposite.
Drill 1 hole with diameter 15 mm (F) on the front of the
2)
casing as per the diagram opposite.
Cut the notch situated beside the cable output on the
3)
right-hand solar panel.
Cut the notch situated on the opposite site from the cable
4)
output on the left-hand solar panel.
Caution! Do not scratch or damage the solar panel.
Feed the wire from the right-hand solar panel into the
5)
notch made.
