inside the package is damaged.

Placement & Storage Conditions

Install the UPS in a protected area that is free of excessive dust and has adequate air flow.
Please place the UPS away from other units at least 20 cm to avoid interference. Do NOT
operate the UPS where the temperature and humidity is outside the specific limits. (Please
check the specs for the limitations.)

Connect to Utility and Charging

4. Important Safety Warning (SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS)

CAUTION! To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, install in a temperature and humidity

controlled indoor area free of conductive contaminants. (See the specifications for the
acceptable temperature and humidity range.)
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of overheating the UPS, do not cover the UPS' cooling vents and
avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight or installing the unit near heat emitting appliances such
as space heaters or furnaces.
CAUTION! Do not attach non-computer-related items, such as medical equipment, life-support
equipment, microwave ovens, or vacuum cleaners to UPS.

CAUTION! Do not plug the UPS input into its own output.
CAUTION! Do not allow liquids or any foreign object to enter the UPS. Do not place beverages

or any other liquid-containing vessels on or near the unit.
CAUTION! In the event of an emergency, press the OFF button and disconnect the power cord
from the AC power supply to properly disable the UPS.

CAUTION! Do not attach a power strip or surge suppressor to the UPS.
CAUTION! If the UPS is with metal chassis, for safety purpose, grounding is a must during UPS
installation in order to reduce leakage current below 3.5mA.
Attention: hazardous through electric shock. Also with disconnection of this unit from the

mains, hazardous voltage still may be accessible through supply from battery. The battery supply
should be therefore disconnected in the plus and minus pole at the quick connectors of the
battery when maintenance or service work inside the UPS is necessary.
CAUTION! Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel
knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away
from batteries.

CAUTION! When replacing the batteries, use the same number and type of batteries.
CAUTION! Internal battery voltage is 12VDC. Sealed, lead-acid, 6-cell battery.
CAUTION! Unplug the UPS prior to cleaning and do not use liquid or spray detergent.
CAUTION! A battery can present a risk of electric shock and high short circuit current. The

following precaution should be observed before replacing batteries:

1) Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.

2) Use tools with insulated handles.

3) Wear rubber gloves and boots.

4) Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
