INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing SANYO HIT*
Photovoltaic (PV) modules. With proper
operation and maintenance, SANYO HIT
PV modules will provide you with clean,
renewable solar electricity for many
years. This manual contains important
installation, maintenance and safety
information. The word "module" as used
in this manual refers to one or more PV
modules. Retain this manual for future
reference.

General Information
The installation of solar modules requires
a great degree of skill and should only be
performed
by
a
qualified
professional, including, without limitation,
licensed
contractors
electricians.

WARNING
All instructions should be read
■
and understood before attempting to
install, wire, operate, and maintain the
photovoltaic module. Contact with
electrically active parts of the module
such as terminals can result in burns,
sparks, and lethal shock whether the
module is connected or disconnected.
■
The installer assumes the risk of
all injury that might occur during
installation,
including,
limitation, the risk of electric shock.
■ PV modules generate DC electrical
energy when exposed to sunlight or
other light sources. Although single
modules produce only a low voltage
and current, shocks and burns are still
a potential hazard.
■
To avoid the hazard of electric
shock and injury, cover all of the front
surface of the PV modules with a
dense, opaque material such as the
cardboard box, during installation and
handling of the modules.
The shock hazard increases as
■
modules are connected in parallel
producing higher current. The
shock hazard increases as modules
are connected in series producing
higher voltages.

■
When carrying a module, two
or more people should carry it by
its frame and wear non-slip gloves
(to avoid injury by a slipping
module, to a foot, or cuts by the
edge of a frame, and so on).
■
Do not carry a module by its
wires or junction box, to avoid the
hazard of electric shock, injury or
damage to the module.
■
Do not drop anything on the
surfaces of a module, to avoid the
hazard of electric shock, injury, and
damage.
■
To avoid the hazard of electric
shock and fire, be sure that all
other system components are
compatible,
subject the module to mechanical
or electrical hazards.

■
Since sparks may occur, do not
install the module where flammable
gases or vapors are present.
■
Never leave a module unsupported
or unsecured.
■
Do not drop a module.
Do not use or install broken
■
modules to avoid the hazard of
fire, electric shock, and injury.
■
Do not artificially concentrate
sunlight on a module to avoid the
and
hazard of fire or damage.

■
Do not treat the back sheet and
front surface with paint or adhesives
to avoid reducing its' functionality,
damage, inoperable conditions, and
other unknown troubles.
