Whether the accessories are missing according to the packing list.
Whether there is any damage to the product that occured during transportation.
Whether the model and specication of the machine's nameplate are consistent with
the order requirements.
In order to ensure the long-term stable operation of the product, it is recommended to
avoid installing chargers in extreme weather, especially as low or high ambient
temperatures may affect the installation effect due to expansions and contractions from
temperature changes.
Space requirement: When the charger is xed on the wall, the minimum space
requirements are shown in Fig. 5-1.
It is suggested that the charger should be installed in a place with good ventilation, no
direct sunlight and sheltered from wind and rain. In order to ensure good ventilation,
mount the charger vertically with at least the minimum space around all sides.
