FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE ABOVE SAFETY TIPS MAY RESULT IN PERMANENT DAMAGE TO YOUR FLEX MODULAR
SYSTEM, RISK OF FIRE, WARRANTY VOID, AND/OR BODILY HARM. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE
CONTACT OUR U.S.-BASED TECH SUPPORT TEAM (SEE CONTACT US).
NEVER connect an input exceeding 90
volts , e.g. the open circuit voltage (VOC)
on solar panels, to the blue EC8 charging
port (right side) on the Flex 1500, Flex
DC, or Flex MPPT Supercharger.
NEVER exceed output and input
connector ratings. Failure to do so may
result in unit damage, fire, or electrical
shock. You can find these ratings under
Tech Specs .
NEVER store a Flex Battery in hot
environments, such as a hot vehicle.
Lithium batteries are sensitive to
extremely high temperatures. For more
information see Tech Specs .
NEVER
touch, stick metal objects into,
or otherwise come in contact with the
AC outlet terminals on the Flex 1500.
Doing so risks death, serious injury, and
electrical shock. These outlets supply
power identical to that of a normal home
wall outlet and, while ungrounded, still
present many of the same dangers.
NEVER operate the Flex system in wet
conditions. Allow any condensation to
dry completely before powering-up or
charging your Flex system. If your Flex
system does get wet, contact us to
ensure it’s safe before attempting to use
it again.
NEVER attempt to repair your Flex
system or replace the internal
battery yourself; any manipulation or
disassembly of any Flex module will
void all warranties, including the 10-
Year No “B.S.” or 10-Year Pro-Rated
Warranties. Any tampering with the
warranty stickers (black dot with Inergy
logo) may also void the warranty. For
questions about repair/service, please
contact our U.S.-based Tech Support
team (see Contact Us). There are no
user-serviceable parts inside.
ALWAYS
keep your Flex system clean
and dry. Regularly inspect for dirt, dust,
or moisture. Clean connectors with
canned air for electronics. Never use an
air compressor to clean or dust-off your
system.
NEVER use a generic or off-brand
charger to charge your Flex Battery.
Use only the Inergy-supplied charger
specifically for this device.
