2.2 Damage to Equipment and Property
To avoid damage due to improper use, you should observe the following
instructions:
• Only use cables, connections and racks intended for this purpose for
your photovoltaic system.
• Only use solar modules of the same type within a photovoltaic system.
• Only use intact solar modules.
• Do not short-circuit the modules.
• Abruptly setting down or dropping the modules, as well as heavy
objects lying or falling on them, can lead to damage. Likewise, persons
should not walk or stand on the modules.
• During transport and installation, make sure to hold the modules
carefully by the frame and not by the electrical connection
components.
• Do not drill any additional holes on the frame or on the glass surface.
• Individual components of the module as well as glued-on information
signs must not be removed.
• Avoid getting paint or adhesives on the module surface.
• Artificial amplification of the incident sunlight (e.g. by a mirror) must be
avoided.
• Avoid direct sunlight on the back of the modules.
• Do not place the modules in locations where flammable gases can
escape.
• Unpack the product only in the manner specified by the manufacturer
and with suitable tools to avoid damage.
• The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for an improperly set up
rack or non-compliance with the locally applicable legal requirements
for the installation of photovoltaic systems.
