SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Handling Safety
DO NOT drop, allow objects to fall on,
or stand or step on modules.
DO NOT install during high winds.
Never leave a module unsupported or
unsecured. If a module falls, the glass
could break. A module with broken
glass cannot be repaired and must not
be used.
DO NOT disassemble the module, or
remove any part installed by Bosch So-
lar. Use modules for their intended use
only and follow all manufacturers’ in-
structions.
DO NOT attempt to remove snow or ice
from the module.
DO NOT direct artificially concentrated
sunlight on the module.
Installation Safety
DO NOT attempt to install or service
any portion of the PV system unless you
understand the electrical operation and
are fully qualified to do so.
