The Solar Panel must always be installed 

INDOORS,

 in most cases, directly against the 

window glass to ensure maximum exposure to sunlight 
 

NOTE: To prevent damage to Solar Panel and/or window hardware, DO NOT MOUNT Solar 
Panel directly to window glass if it will cause an obstruction to moveable window frames 
and hardware! 

t

Optional:

 Solar Panel should be mounted 

on the same side

 as the battery tube 

(see Option 1 and 2)

Extension cables may be purchased to accommodate other locations. 

 

The following depicts the most common installation options, however if Solar Panel CANNOT be 
mounted directly to window glass, the Optional Solar Panel Bracket Kit (previous page) may have 
to be purchased. The bracket kit will enable the Solar Panel to be mounted directly to the inside 

“window-return“

 or directly to the window covering enclosure/headrail (if one is used). 

See

 Option 4

 (below).

Step 2: Installing Solar Panel

Determine the location of the Solar Panel

Option 1:

 Horizontal Mount Inside 

or Outside of Window Frame

Option 2:

 Vertical Mount Inside or 

Outside Frame

Option 3:

 Any other location that 

works for your specific installation

Option 4

NOTE: If the Solar Panel is located more than 10 inches from the motor (motor side of the window 
covering) an optional extension cable (previous page) may be used.
