NG AND HANDLING
Do not lift the module or carry module by junction box or PV cables.
Do not drill holes in the frame. This will void warranty and may affect frame strength.
Avoid scratching the frame. Scratches to the frame will compromise protective coating
and can result in corrosion or weakened structure.
Do not scratch or damage the module backsheet. Scrathes to the backsheet could affect
module performance.
Do not stand on, drop, scratch or allow objects to hit modules (especially module glass).
O not install or handle the modules when wet or during periods of high wind.
Do not install the modules where there may be flammable gases or vapors, since sparks
may be produced.
When storing the modules, take steps to cover the DC connectors and prevent dust
from collecting on or in the connectors.

ELECTRICAL HANDLING AND INSTALLATION
The module’s DC connection points conduct direct current (DC) and are sources of
voltage when the module s under load and any time it is exposed to light.
Direct current can arc across gaps and may cause injury or death if improper connection
or disconnection is made, or if contact is made with module leads that are frayed, torn
or otherwise damaged.
