1.1 Disclaimer of liability 

 
Because  the  use  of  this  manual  and  the  conditions  or  methods  of  installation,  operation,  use  and 
maintenance of photovoltaic (PV) product are beyond LDK Solar’s control, LDK Solar does not accept 
responsibility and expressly disclaims liability for loss, damage, or expense arising out of or in any way 
connected with such installation, operation, use or maintenance. 
No  responsibility  is  assumed  by  LDK  Solar  for  any  infringement  of  patents  or  other  rights  of  third 
parties, which may result from use of the PV product. No license is granted by implication or otherwise 
under any patent or patent rights. 
The information in this manual is based on LDK Solar’s knowledge and experience and is believed to 
be reliable; but such information including product specification (without limitations) and suggestions 
do not constitute a warranty, expresses or implied. LDK Solar reserves the right to change the manual, 
the PV product, the specifications, or product information sheets without prior notice. 
 

1.2 Product identification 
 

Each module provides the following information: 
 
Nameplate: describes the product type, rated power, rated current, rated voltage, open circuit voltage, 
short  circuit  current,  all  as  measured  under  standard  test  conditions,  weight,  dimension  etc.  the 
maximum system voltage is shown on the nameplate.   
Bar code: each individual module has a unique serial number. There is only one bar code on module. It 
is permanently attached to the interior of the module visible when viewing from the front of the module. 
This bar code is inserted at the beginning of laminating.
