3.1.1.1 Examples of correct and incorrect installations 3.1.2 Installation environment requirements
● Avoid Direct Sunlight
Installation of the inverter in a location exposed to direct sunlight should be avoided.
Direct exposure to sunlight could cause: Inverter temperature rises.
Output power limitation (Leads to a reduction of system generation).

● Please ensure the ventilation and well heat dissipation

IP66
Do not install the inverter in a small, closed room where air cannot freely circulate.
To prevent overheating, please ensure that the air flow around the inverter is not blocked.

● Do not install the inverter near flammable substances

Do not install the inverter near flammable substances. Please ensure the distance between
inverter and those flammable objects is larger than 3 meters.
● Avoid installation in living areas
Do not install the inverter in the living area where the prolonged presences of people or
animals are expected. There may be produced some noises when the inverter is operating,
so a living area installation is not recommended.

6.2 Shutdown procedure

To stop the inverter, it is mandatory that the steps below are followed in the exact order outlined.
1). Select "Grid Off" in the Advanced Setting of Inverter LCD.
2). Turn off the AC Switch between Solis inverter and Grid.
3). Wait approximately 30 seconds (during this time, the AC side capacitors are dissipating
energy). If the inverter has DC voltage above the start-up threshold, the red POWER

4). Confirm all LED's switch OFF (~one (1) minute).

CAUTION
Although the inverter DC disconnect switch is in the OFF position and all
