bEfOrE & afTEr INSTaLLaTION 

before Installation

Please carefully read this manual before installation.

 

Solar module installation and maintenance must be 

performed by qualified and authorized installer. 

 

All installation instructions should be read and  
understood before  performing any installation.

 

Do not disassemble the solar module.

 

After installation or repair, check that the solar module 
are operating properly.

 

In the event that the currently used solar module or 
parts have been replaced the newly replaced module 
and parts must have the same model name and parts 
as the previously installed solar module.

 

Secure all necessary permits and licenses to install 
the solar modules.

 

Panels are not intended for use indoors or on moving 
vehicles of any kind.

 

Industry standard rated specifications are made at 

conditions of 1000W/m

2

 irradiance and 25°C (77°F) 

solar cell temperature. Colder temperatures may 
substantially increase voltage and power. 

 

Keep the solar module and system away from children 
at all times.

 

Keep the module packed in the carton until the time of 
installation.

 

Keep flammable gasses away from the installation 

site.

 

Do not work alone. Please work as part of a team of 
two or more people.

 

Safety harness use is strongly recommended for  
installation.

 

Partial shadowing may substantially reduce panel and 
system output.

 

Care must be taken to avoid low tilt angles which may 
cause dirt to buildup on the glass against the frame 
edge.

 

Dirt build-up on the surface of the panel may 
cause active solar cells to be shaded and electrical 
performance to be impaired.

after Installation

 

Plug in the connector tightly and ensure that the wiring 
properly works.

 

Conduct periodic inspection of the panels for damage 
to front glass, back sheet, frame, junction box, or 
external electrical connections.

 

Check electrical connections for loose connections 
and corrosion.

 

Water, ethanol or a conventional glass cleanser with 

a micro-fiber cloth can be used for regular washing or 

rinsing of the front glass to remove dust, dirt or other 
deposits.

 

Aggressive and abrasive cleansers or chemicals such 
as alkali chemicals including ammonia based solution 
should not be used on cleaning the module.

 

Deposits of foreign material on the frame surface can 
be cleaned by using a wet sponge or cloth and dried 
in air or by using a clean chamois.

 

Perform the wiring work by connecting the connector 
and wires to the stand away from the roof or ground.
