4 Maintenance
Chapter 4 provides information on maintaining your internal battery and recharging options for the internal battery.
Routine maintenance is required to keep your Powerpack Solar 400 operating properly. Occasionally clean the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth to remove the accumulated dust and dirt.
WARNING: Shock hazard
Disconnect all sources of AC power and DC power before performing any type of maintenance.
Solar Panel Maintenance
The cells of the solar panel are protected by a special plastic material. Use a soft damp cloth to wipe off dirt, oil, and other debris that may significantly block the cells of the solar panel and degrade its ability to collect sunlight.
Do not immerse the solar panel in water.
Battery Maintenance
All rechargeable batteries gradually discharge when left standing and need to be recharged periodically to maintain maximum battery capacity. The AC Charger supplied with the Powerpack Solar 400 is designed to regulate the charging process, ensuring that the battery is always fully charged but never overcharged. To ensure safe recharging and maximum battery life, recharge the Powerpack Solar 400 only with the supplied AC Charger or the Solar Panel.
