1. Power down per inverter manual; work cool mornings. 2. Inspect from ground; mark droppings/pollen/leaf build‑up. 3. Soft tools only; avoid pressure washers and harsh chemicals. 4. Rinse thoroughly; distilled/deionized water minimizes spotting. 5. Restore power and compare output vs yesterday at similar sun angle. 6. Set cadence by climate; add post‑storm checks.
