Warning:
• Although the Apple controllers are reverse polarity protected, the user should ensure correct connection by ensuring all polarity
specific connections are done correctly (positive to positive, negative to negative).
• The Apple controllers are designed for indoor use only.
• All solar panels connected to the controller should be 12Vdc, and the current supplied to the controller should be equal to or
smaller than the controller's output current.

Warranty:

All Sundaya Controllers are warranted for 2 years for any defects caused by faulty components or factory error. The warranty will
be void under the following conditions:
• The Product shows signs of having been exposed to moisture or submerged in liquid.
• The Product shows signs of being opened, or
warranty seal is broken.
• The Product shows signs of abuse or misuse.

Fault finding

If you are using the load terminal and the loads won't turn on:
1) When you first connect the Apple regulator to a battery, the load terminal is turned off. The load terminal is turned on by pressing
the on/off button. You can check whether the loads are on or off by holding the display button on for about 10 seconds (the on/off
light will blink every five seconds indicating the loads are off... if no light blinks, the loads are on).
2) If the cut-off light comes on and stays on, the batteries are very flat and have therefore been disconnected from the loads to
prevent damaging excessive discharge. The loads will come back on automatically when the battery has been charged back up
to safe level.
3) If there is a wiring fault (short circuit), the on/off light will come on and stay on. The loads can only be reconnected when the
wiring problem has been fixed and the on/off button has been pressed to `reset' the load terminal.
4) Check the polarity (positive and negative) of all your loads; some loads will only run if they are correctly wired. Although they will
not be damaged, no Sundaya florescent lights work if the wiring is the wrong way round.
The solar panel won't charge the battery (charge light won't come on):
i. Make sure the solar panel is wired correctly (positive and negative are correct).
ii. NOTE: the solar panel cannot be switched on or off using the on/off switch- it is always connected to the battery and will always
charge if there is sunlight on the panel.
