6. Underhåll

• Rengöring: Torka regelbundet av solpanelerna med en mjuk, damp trasa för att avlägsna damm, smuts eller skräp som kan minska effektiviteten. Använd inte starka kemikalier eller slipande material.
• Lagring: När solpanelen inte används, vik ihop den och förvara den på en sval, torr plats, skyddad från direkt solljus och extrema temperaturer.
• Inspektion: Kontrollera regelbundet panelen och kablarna för tecken på skador eller slitage.

  • Verify that the USB cable is securely connected to both the solar panel and your device.
  • Test with a different USB cable or device to rule out cable or device issues.
  • Check if the device requires more power than the 40-watt panel can provide.
• Långsam laddning:
  • Justera panelens vinkel så att den är vänd direkt mot solen.
  • Clean the surface of the solar cells to remove any dirt or dust.
  • Charging speed can be affected by cloud cover, time of day, and geographical location.
• Panel appears damaged:
  • Avbryt användningen omedelbart.
