COMPLETING YOUR WARRANTY CARD

In order to fulfill the requirements of the manufacturers, you must complete Warranty Cards for the
Micro-Inverters, which provide system information and installation maps to Hoymiles. A Warranty
Card can be found in Appendix 6.

Each Micro-Inverter has serial number labels affixed. Once the inverters are installed, please peel
one of the labels off each Micro-Inverter and affix them to the warranty card.

Fill in the warranty card with each of the labels according to the layout on the roof/ground. The DC
inputs are identified by A and B. The left input is A and the right one is B, as shown below

.

If you have a purchased an online monitoring system, please refer to the User Manual provided
with this guide for detailed instructions on how to install it correctly, and use these installation
maps to set it up.
