Repetitive quick deep discharging of any rechargeable battery will reduce the capacity and life
of the battery. Frequent charging will preserve battery life.

Battery Disconnect Switch

A Battery Disconnect Switch allows the user to turn off the battery whenever the Solar e Power
Cube is not in use and to be stored for a prolonged period of time. This helps preserve the bat-
tery's charge. Also, it is recommended to turn this switch off whenever transporting or moving the
Solar e Power Cube to prevent any electrical hazard caused by excessive vibration. The Battery
Disconnect Switch is located to the left of the control panel. For early models, the fan will oper-
ate when the Battery Disconnect Switch is closed (ON). For later models, fans operate when the
Inverter is turned on.

CauTion—live baTTery TerminalS:
When the Battery Disconnect Switch is closed (ON), the Battery Terminals are connected to the
internal battery. Proper care must be taken to keep Battery Terminals covered (insulated) at all
times when not in use.

External Battery Terminals

Red and black terminals labeled "Battery Terminal" are located above each wheel. Battery
Terminals can be used for DC load applications greater than 15 amps, such as jump starting
a small motor vehicle with user-supplied jumper cables. Care must be taken to ensure that the
battery is not over-discharged. When using the Battery Terminals for high current output for a
prolonged period of time, it is recommended that the Inverter switch be turned ON to operate
the cooling fan. The Battery Disconnect Switch must be on to use the Battery Terminals. Battery
Terminals can be used to connect additional (external) batteries to increase capacity of the bat-
tery bank. The illustration that follows shows the Negative battery terminal.
