IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains important safety instructions that should be fol­lowed during the installation and maintenance of the Uninterruptible
Power System (UPS) and its batteries. Please read this manual thor­oughly before attempting to install or operate this UPS.

Read all safety, installation, and operating instructions before operat­ing the UPS. Adhere to all warnings on the unit and in this manual.
Follow all operating and user instructions.

This equipment is designed for Commercial, Industrial or Residential
use. Liebert Corporation neither recommends nor knowingly sells this

WARNING

!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• There are no user-serviceable parts inside this UPS except
the internal battery pack. Refer all UPS service to quali­fied service personnel. Do not attempt to service this prod­uct yourself.

• Output receptacles on the UPS are electrically live if the
UPS is switched on, even if the UPS is not plugged into a
Mains supply. The ON/OFF button on the UPS does not
electrically isolate the internal parts. Some components
are live even when Mains power is disconnected. To isolate
the UPS, switch off the UPS first, then unplug it from the
Mains.

• Opening or removing the cover may expose you to lethal
voltages within this unit even when it is apparently not
operating and the input wiring is disconnected from the
electrical source.

• Observe all CAUTION and WARNING statements in this
manual and on the unit. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury or death.

• Never work alone.

WARNING

!

ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS

• This UPS should not be supplied from electrical power sys­tems of the “IT” (Impedance á Terre) type (IEC 364 - Elec­trical Installation of Buildings).

• The UPS must be earthed/grounded at all times during
operation. Connect only to a mains supply socket outlet
with an earth/ground connection.

CAUTION

!

Although your UPS has been designed and manufactured to
assure personal safety, improper use may result in electrical
shock or fire. To ensure safety, please observe the following
rules:

• Turn off and unplug your UPS before cleaning. Do not use
liquid or aerosol cleaners. A dry cloth is recommended to
remove dust from the surface of your UPS.

• Do not install or operate your UPS in or near water.

• Do not place your UPS on an unstable cart, stand or table.

• Do not place your UPS in direct sunlight or near heat
emitting sources.

• Never block or insert any objects into the ventilation holes
or other openings of the UPS. Keep all vents free of dust
accumulation that could restrict airflow.

• Do not place the UPS power cord in any area where it may
be damaged by heavy objects.

• Placing magnetic storage on the top of the UPS may result
in data corruption.

CAUTION

!

BATTERY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by

personnel knowledgeable of batteries and required precautions.
Keep unauthorized personnel away from the batteries.

A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high
short-circuit current. The following precautions should be
observed when working on batteries:

• Remove watches, rings, and other metal objects.

• Use tools with insulated handles.

• Do not dispose battery or batteries in a fire. The battery
may explode.

• Do not open or mutilate the battery or batteries. Released
electrolyte is harmful to skin and eyes. It may be toxic.

• When replacing the battery, use same number and type of
battery as the suitable recommended type of battery listed
in specification table in back of this manual.

• Handle, transport and recycle batteries in accordance with
local regulations.
