Please read and follow these instructions carefully:
Warning
This equipment should only be installed, operated by qualified personnel (electricians).
The local safety regulations and relevant operating procedures must be followed during the installation,
operation and maintenance of the equipment, otherwise the equipment may be damaged. The safety
precautions mentioned in this manual are supplementary to the local safety regulations.
Caution
Do not short-circuit the Li-ion battery.
Follow the positive (+) and negative (-) marks on the Li-ion battery and equipment and ensure correct
use. Do not reverse the Li-ion battery.
Do not dismantle, crush, puncture, open, or shred the Li-ion battery.
Before removing or reconnecting with the running system, make sure to turn off the power and shut
down the system to avoid the risk of electric shock.
Do not expose the Li-ion battery to heat or fire. In case of fire, use a dry powder fire extinguisher.
Do not dismantle any part of the system without contacting PYTES or PYTES authorized technical
engineers. System failure caused by such actions will not be covered by the warranty.
Before operating the inverter, ensure that all batteries have been started up.
The following precautions should be taken when working on batteries:
a) Shut down the power and loads before connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.
b) Do not wear any metal objects such as watches and rings.
c) Use tools with insulated handles.
d) Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
e) Wear personal protective equipment.
f) Make sure the battery is well grounded. Contact with any part of a poorly grounded or ungrounded
battery can cause electric shock and burns by high short-circuit current.
Danger
Do not dispose of batteries in fire, as the batteries may explode.
Keep the Li-ion battery away from water, dust, and contamination to avoid explosion or other harmful
conditions that may even lead to personal injury.

toxic.
A battery can pose a risk of electric shock and burns due to high short-circuit current.
A malfunctioning battery can reach temperatures that exceed the safe contact level.
