Installation notes

The drive runs on battery power and the batteries are charged by the integrated solar panel.
The battery charge depends primarily on the location of the building, the facing direction of the window and
the angle the solar panel is tilted.
The drive is designed for daily ventilation and, thanks to its energy saving construction, also works during the
winter months when there is less sunlight. In the occasional periods of exceptionally little sunlight, it may
happen that the batteries completely lose their charge. In such cases, it only takes a few days for the batteries
to recharge again. It is best to reduce the number of times per day the room is ventilated during this recharging
period. The solar panel has to be in a location where it is free of shade all day long, regardless of the season;
otherwise, it cannot charge the batteries. Therefore, installation should consider the movement of shadows
from buildings and trees, as well as roof dormers, chimneys, antennae, etc. Weather (frequent rain, snow,
fog, etc.) and dirt can also interrupt its proper function.
If the window is equipped with a shutter or sun blind, this should be open during the day far enough that the
drive batteries can be charged through their solar cells.
Checking the installation conditions:
1. Locate the installation area on the map (Zone 1 to 4)
2. Determine the required orientation of the window and the inclination angle of the solar module according to
the Zone based on the diagram beside. (Zone 4 includes areas 3 and 2, etc.)
3. Check whether the window is suitable for the installation of the drive.
