4. Operating Instructions

Once set up and connected, the AFERIY AF-S100 will begin converting sunlight into electrical energy. The conversion efficiency of the solar panel is directly related to the intensity of sunlight it receives. For optimal charging, ensure the panel is:

• Placed in direct, unobstructed sunlight.
• Adjusted to face the sun throughout the day, if possible, to maximize energy capture.
• Free from shadows cast by trees, buildings, or other objects.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your AFERIY AF-S100 solar panel, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Regularly wipe the surface of the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the ETFE coating.
• Inspection: Periodically check the cables and connectors for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Ensure connections remain tight and secure.
• Storage: When not in use, fold the solar panel and store it in a dry, cool place away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. The panel's foldable design and durable materials make it easy to transport and store.
• Waterproofing: The panel is IP65 waterproof, meaning it is protected against dust and low-pressure water jets. While it can withstand rain, avoid submerging it in water.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your AFERIY AF-S100 solar panel, consider the following:

• No Power Output:
  • Ensure the panel is in direct sunlight and not obstructed by shadows.
  • Verify all cables are securely connected to both the solar panel and the charging device/power station.
  • Check for any visible damage to the solar panel surface or cables.
• Low Power Output:
  • Adjust the panel's angle to face the sun directly.
  • Clean the panel surface to remove any dirt or dust accumulation.
  • Consider environmental factors such as cloud cover or time of day, which can affect sunlight intensity.
