1>Close the DC switch on the inverter. As long as the input DC voltage is greater than
250V, the inverter display will display the following message: If there is no mains
connection error, the inverter LED will turn red. If other information is displayed,
please refer to Chapter 9. If the debugging process encounters an unsolvable
problem, please contact customer service and perform the next step.
2>Close the circuit breaker or switch between the inverter and the grid. The inverter
starts the self-test countdown. After the self-test is normal, it will be connected to the
grid.

ventilation and heat dissipation can effectively reduce the chance of load derating .
Inverter equipped with internal cooling fans, when the internal temperature is too high,
the fans work in to reduce the internal temperature. When the inverter is derating
because of the internal temperature is too high, the following are the possible reasons or
solutions;
●Fan is blocked or the heat sink gathers too much dust, it needs to clean the fan, fan
cover or heat sink.
●Fan is damaged, it need to replace the fan.
●Poor ventilation of the installation location, it needs to select the appropriate
installation location according to the basic installation requirements.

9.2.1 Warning
Warnings identify the current status of the inverter(Max), warnings do not related to a
fault and it does not affect the normal running of the inverter. When a warning with a
number after it appears in the display, it indicates a warning code and is usually cleared
through an orderly shutdown/re-set or a self-corrective action performed by the inverter.
See the warning code in the following table;

Decommissioning 11
If the inverter does not operate in the future, it needs to be properly disposing. The steps
Operating temperature range –25°C ... +60°C (derating over 45°C) are as follows:
1>Disconnect the external AC short circuit and prevent reconnection due to
Noise emission (typical) ≤60dB(A) misoperation.
2>Turn the DC switch to "OFF" position.
Relative humidity 0~100% 3>Wait at least 5 minutes until the internal capacitor discharge is completed.
4>Disconnect the AC connector.
5>Disconnect DC connector.
Highest Altitude 4000m
6>Remove the inverter from the wall.
7>Disposing of the inverter.
