Setup Instructions
- Unfold the Solar Panel: Carefully unbuckle the straps and unfold the solar panel completely on a flat surface.
- Position the Panel: Extend the integrated kickstands on the back of the panel. Adjust the angle of the panel to face the sun directly for maximum efficiency.
- Connect to Power Station: Locate the 2-in-1 GX16-4 aviation cable stored in the zippered pouch on the back of the panel. Connect the male connector of this cable directly to the solar input port of your compatible Pecron portable power station (e.g., E600LFP, E1500LFP, E2000LFP, S1500).
- Parallel Connection (Optional): If using multiple Pecron 200W solar panels for increased charging speed, connect the female connector of the GX16-4 aviation cable from the first panel to the male connector of the second panel, and so on. Ensure proper polarity.

Operating Instructions
- Optimal Sunlight: For best performance, ensure the solar panel is positioned in direct sunlight without any shading. Adjust the angle throughout the day to follow the sun's path.
- Monitoring Charge: Monitor the charging status on your connected Pecron power station. The power station's display will indicate the incoming solar wattage.
- Environmental Conditions: The panel operates efficiently in various conditions, but extreme temperatures (outside -10°C to 65°C) may affect performance.
- Disconnection: When finished charging or storing, disconnect the solar panel from the power station before folding it.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Regularly clean the surface of the solar panels with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris that may reduce efficiency. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: When not in use, fold the solar panel and secure it with the integrated buckles. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Waterproof Rating: The panel has an IP67 waterproof rating, meaning it is protected against dust and temporary immersion in water. However, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion is not recommended. Ensure connectors are dry before use.
