Troubleshooting
If the IQ
TM
Battery(ies) are not operating correctly, do the following. If the issue
persists, contact Enphase at enphase.com/en-us/support/contact.
A ) If the IQ
TM
Battery(ies) do not operate, check the temperature in the room
and increase cooling and/or ventilation as required. Check that the front,
and top sides of the IQ
TM
Battery 3T and IQ
TM
Battery 10T have at least
15cm (six inches) of unobstructed clearance.
B ) If the IQ
TM
Battery LED is off, turn off the breaker for the branch circuit, wait
for at least one minute, and turn it back on.
NOTE: During a brownout or blackout, the IQ
TM
Battery powers down
automatically. This is normal. When power is restored, it automatically
starts up again.
C ) If you do not see IQ
TM
Battery information in Enphase Installer App, check that
the IQ
TM
Gateway and the Internet connection are working. If the issue persists,
contact Enphase Customer Support at enphase.com/en-us/support/contact.
A ) Use the Enphase Installer App to commission the IQ
TM
Battery(ies). Once
connected to the IQ
TM
Gateway, refer to the Enphase Installer App help
topics for more information.
B ) After the IQ
TM
Gateway has detected the IQ
TM
Battery(ies), the IQ
TM
Battery LEDs operate as described in the following section.

OPERATION
a
LED overview
After being commissioned, the LED ashes yellow while each IQ
TM
Battery
boots up. If the LED rapidly ashes green for more than two minutes, the bat-
tery is in trickle charge mode and will remain so until it reaches a minimum
state of charge (up to 30 minutes). After the IQ
TM
Battery is booted up, the
LED becomes blue or green depending on the charge level. If the LED ashes
yellow after one hour or changes to a ashing red state, contact Enphase
Customer Support at enphase.com/en-us/support/contact.
