 Screw tank cartridge connection onto the new tank cartridge.
 In the "Main Menu > Fuel Cartridge" menu, specify the tank cartridge size
used and confirm with "OK".
8.8 Solar installation (special equipment)
The solar installation provides an environmentally compatible power supply
independent of the mains. It converts energy from sunlight into electric current.
The solar installation supplies additional current for the battery and appli-
ances.
The solar charge regulator has an integrated overload protection and back
flow valve. The charging current is automatically reduced or the solar collec-
tors (solar modules) are switched off if the solar power is not sufficient (e.g. at
night).
The operating display is by means of two LEDs (Fig. 122,1 and 2). The LEDs
indicate the current operating status by means of different brightness. The
higher the charge status of the battery, the brighter the LED lights "100 % ↑"
(Fig. 122,1) and, the lower the charge status of the battery, the lower the LED
lights "20 % ↓" (Fig. 122,2).
Z Protect the solar collectors (solar module) against mechanical overload.
Z The solar installation supplies the most current under optimal sunlight con-
ditions.
Z Provide the solar collectors (solar module) open access to sunlight.
Z Sunlight is greater in the open air than under trees and bridges.
Z Tarpaulins block out sunlight.
Z Always keep collector surfaces free of contamination.
Z Also read the manufacturer's instruction manual.
