The solar panels should be periodically cleaned during extended use and before storing. Check 

your panels weekly or following a storm to make sure no damage has occurred. 

• Check for dirt buildup.
• Using a soft brush, remove dust or droppings from the panels.
• Wipe surface with a soft damp cloth.
• Dry the panels with a soft cloth. Solar panels are more efficient when they are clean.
• Check wiring or cables that are attached to the solar panels. Wire or cables may become

loose from turbulent weather conditions.

• Store panels when not in use.
