Operating instructions
Thin film solar module 2W 6V
Item no. 1780539
Intended use
This polycrystalline solar module converts the radiant energy contained in light (usually
sunlight) into electrical energy. The product is especially suitable for charging batteries. To
connect the product to a battery, a cable with terminal posts is included.
For safety and approval purposes, you must not rebuild and/or modify this product. If you use
the product for purposes other than those described above, the product may be damaged.
In addition, improper use can cause hazards such as short circuiting, fire, electric shock etc.
Read the instructions carefully and keep them. Make this product available to third parties only
together with its operating instructions.
This product complies with the statutory national and European requirements. All company

Explanation of symbols
The lightning symbol inside a triangle is used when there is a potential risk of
personal injury, such as electric shock.
An exclamation mark in a triangle indicates important instructions in this operating
manual that absolutely have to be observed.
The arrow symbol indicates specific tips and advice on operation.
Safety instructions
Read the operating instructions carefully and especially observe the safety
information. If you do not follow the safety instructions and information
on proper handling in this manual, we assume no liability for any resulting
personal injury or damage to property. Such cases will invalidate the warranty/
guarantee.
• The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become
dangerous playing material for children.
• Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high
humidity, moisture, flammable gases, vapours and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and
protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed
if the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height
can damage the product.
• Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices which are
connected to the product.
• The solar panel generates power as soon as it is exposed to light. A single module
generates power below the so-called low voltage barrier. However, multiple
modules in parallel (summation of currents) or series connection (summation of
voltages) represent a potential risk. However, always consider the following notes
to avoid electrical shock, spark formation and fire:
- Solar panel(s) or the cables connected to it/them must never be installed with
damp or wet plugs or sockets.
- Never touch the connection leads or connection terminals with wet or damp
hands.
- Never use damaged solar panels; never dismantle solar panels. Do not remove
type labels attached by the manufacturer.
- Ensure that there is a dry environment during installation and connection.
• The solar module's performance can vary depending on weather conditions. Keep
this in mind when operating a device with this product.
• Always ensure correct polarity when connecting a battery.
• Avoid direct contact with the surface. The surface is sensitive and can be easily
scratched or destroyed through contamination.
• Solar modules may only be used in a temperate climate. The solar module is a
device which is not secured against explosions. Thus, it may not be installed in the
vicinity of highly inflammable gases and vapours.
• Consult an expert when in doubt about operation, safety or connection of the
device.
• Maintenance, modifications and repairs are to be performed exclusively by an
expert or at a qualified shop.
• If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions,
contact our technical support service or other technical personnel.
Operation
1. Position the solar module in a sunny spot. To achieve optimal utilization of the solar
module, we recommend you obtain more information on suitable positioning and the
suitable tilting angle. Optimal positioning (and thus an optimal utilization rate) is achieved
when the sun rays fall perpendicularly onto the solar module.
2. If you want to mount the solar module, it has to be securely fastened at a minimum of four
points. The frame is suitable for attachment on the broadsides. The required bore holes
have to be drilled by the user.
3. Ensure that no shadows are cast over it, caused by trees or buildings, for example.
4. Connect the solar module to the battery: Connect the terminal posts to the terminals of
the battery. Observe the correct polarity.
5. After use, disconnect the solar module from the battery. Disconnect the adaptor from the
solar module.
Care and cleaning
Regularly clean the solar module, as its performance would otherwise
decrease and the surface could be irreversibly damaged.
• Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions as
they can cause damage to the housing and malfunctioning.
• To clean the surface, use a soft, antistatic and dry brush.
• Do not immerse the product in water.
Disposal
Electronic devices are recyclable waste and must not be disposed of in the
household waste. At the end of its service life, dispose of the product according to
the relevant statutory regulations.
You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the
environment.
