DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN, SNOW
OR FLOODING: The plastic wrap is
intended to prevent temporary
contact with dirt, water or other
materials but will not protect the
modules from damage resulting from
rain, snow and flooding. Modules
should be stored in a sheltered dry
location.
KEEP PACKAGING UPRIGHT: The
packaging is only designed to be
handled and stored with the modules
sitting on the pallet as per Fig. 6. Not
following these indicated directions
may create forms of mechanical
stress on the modules that could
cause damage or breakage.
RECYCLE WHERE POSSIBLE: Both
modules and packaging contain
recyclable materials. Use caution
when dealing with damaged modules.
FRAGILE: Any direct impact to the
glass or on the corners of the modules
should be avoided. Avoid flexing the
laminates or applying non-distributed
loads and stresses. Avoid scratching
the surface of the exterior glass or
backsheet. Do not apply any forces to
the backsheets. Do not drop the
modules or pallets from any height.
HANDLE WITH CARE: during the
operation of shipping and storage of
the modules use maximum care to
ensure the full integrity of the mod-
ules. Hidden cell damage can result if
care is not taken.
DO NOT STEP ON MODULE.
DO NOT STACK MORE THAN TWO
PALLETS HIGH.
SAFETY FIRST.
