Installation and Location Warnings
• Install the battery cabinet in a controlled indoor environment, away from moisture,
temperature extremes, flammable liquids and gasses, conductive contaminants, dust and
direct sunlight.
• Install the battery cabinet in a level, structurally sound location.
• The battery cabinet is extremely heavy. Exercise caution when moving or lifting the unit.
• Operate the battery cabinet at indoor temperatures between 0° C and 40° C only. For best
