WARNING
Batteries are shipped fully charged.

the batteries as they are capable
of generating hazardous short-
circuit currents. Remove all jewelry
(bracelets, metal-strap watches,
etc.) before attempting to handle the
batteries.
Solar modules produce DC
electricity when exposed to light
and can, therefore, produce an
electrical shock or burn. To render
solar modules inoperative, remove
them from sunlight, or fully cover
their front surface with an opaque
material.
Before lifting any heavy or bulky
equipment, ensure the load is
secured so moving parts do not
shift, and that it can be lifted as far
as needed without back strain or
loss of grip. Installation may require
more than one person.
Until the system is ready for startup,
keep the battery fuse out of the fuse
holder. Ensure the equipment is
not powered during installation and
wiring of the system.
Recheck all completed wiring for
proper polarity prior to energizing
the system.
