CAUTION
Battery must be replaced when they reach end of service life.
Batteries must be replaced when the unit indicates battery replacement is necessary.
When replacing batteries, replace with the same number and type of batteries originally installed in the unit.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in minor or moderate injury and
equipment damage.
Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable about
batteries and required precautions.
When replacing battery the UPS must be OFF, and its AC inlet unplugged.
CAUTION Do not dispose of batteries in a re. The batteries may explode.
CAUTION Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries
according to the instructions.
Do not open or mutilate batteries. They contain an electrolyte that is toxic and harmful to the skin
and eyes.
CAUTION A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current.
The following precautions should be observed when working on batteries.
a. Remove watches, rings or other metal objects.
b. Use tools with insulated handles.
c. Wear rubber gloves and boots.
d. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
e. Disconnect the charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.
f. Determine if battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source from
ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood
of such shock can be reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance

Condition
On-line - The EasyUPS is supplying AC power to the
connected equipment
On Line Overload - The power being used by the connected
equipment has exceeded the capacity of the unit.
Disconnect some equipment.
Over-temperature - The unit is overheating and will operate
in AVR mode for 5 minutes. The Easy UPS will shut down if
the temperature is not lowered. Disconnect some of
the connected equipment.
On-Battery - The Easy UPS is supplying battery power.
Low Battery - The Easy UPS is supplying battery power and
the battery is near a total discharge state.
Bad Battery Detected - The battery needs to be charged,
or is at end of life.
Low Battery Shutdown - During On Battery operation
the battery power was almost completely exhausted, and the
Easy UPS is waiting for AC power to return to normal.
On Battery Overload - The connected equipment requires
more power than provided by the Easy UPS battery.
Unplug devices one at a time to remove overload.
If the problem is not corrected, contact SEIT Technical
Support
Charger Detected Fault - Easy UPS has an internal problem,
and is no longer powering the load.
Contact SEIT Technical Support
Long beep every
4 seconds
Over-temperature Protected - The Easy UPS has
overheated and has shut down. Unplug connected devices
one at a time or wait for a few hours for system to cool down.
Operational Features
Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR)
Automatic Voltage Regulation boosts/trims the AC voltage when it drops/exceeds levels.
This allows the equipment plugged into the unit to operate during low/high voltage conditions,
conserving the battery power in the event of a power cut.
The Easy UPS will switch to battery power if the input voltage level becomes too low/high for the
Automatic Voltage Regulation to compensate, or if the AC power is distorted.

should be replaced.
The UPS and outlets are off but the UPS keeps beeping once every 4 seconds. The alarm will
mute after 32 seconds.
The UPS have shut down due to low battery,
but control power exists.
Press the ON/OFF button.
Make sure the power cord is securely connected to the
wall outlet, and that there is AC power available at the

The Easy UPS is operating normally on battery
power. At this point the user should save all open les,
and shutdown the computer. When AC power is
restored the battery will recharge.
The Easy UPS battery is near a total discharge state.
At this point the user should save all open les, and
shutdown the computer. When AC power is restored
the battery will recharge.
Leave the Easy UPS connected to AC power for ten
hours while the battery charges to full capacity.
As a battery ages, the runtime capability decreases.
The UPS will return to normal operation once the
AC input voltage has returned to a normal range.
