the warnings in this manual may violate safety standards. The
manufacturer assumes no liability for th
e customer’s failure to
comply with these requirements.
！
Installation of the device must be in accordance with the relevant
safety regulations. Correct grounding and over-
current protection
must be provided to ensure operational safety.
！
Pay attention
to the high temperature components and sharp edges.
The temperature of the heat sinks on the outside of the device can
reach over 70°C in normal operation. There is the risk of burn injury
when these parts are touched.
Warning, Risk of electric shock
Personnel must remove all conductive jewelry or personal equipment
prior to installation or service of the device, parts, connectors, and/or
wiring.
Only the licensed and qualified electricians are allowed to perform the
installation, wiring, maintenance or modification on the device.
Switch off the circuit breakers before installation and wirings. Never
stand on a wet location when working on installation and wirings.
Even when no external voltage is presented; the inverter can still
contain high
voltages and the risk of electrical shock. Allow 5 minutes
for the inverter to discharge completely after disconnecting the AC
and DC sources from the inverter.
The inverter must be provided with an equipment-
grounding
conductor connected to the AC ground.

Maintenance and Clean
Each inverter is well calibrated before shipment and needs no
additional maintenance during normal operation.
！
Alterations are not to be made and no tampering with the assembly in
the inverter without the manufacturer’s aut
horization unless
specified elsewhere in this manual. They may result in injury, electric
shock, or fire and void the warranty.
！
The inverter contains no user serviceable parts inside. Only trained
staff is authorized to repair the unit. Please contact t
he specialized
dealer or system technician for further examination.
！
Wipe the enclosure and display lens with a soft cloth. Do not use
