This manual contains important instructions for

Ellipse that should be followed during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.

This equipment can be operated by an individual, with no previous

training.

All repairs should be

performed by qualified personnel.

The UPS contains voltages which are potentially hazardous.

CAUTION: Risk of electric shock, even with unit disconnected from AC power source.

Hazardous voltage still may be present through operation from battery. The battery should be disconnected at the plus (+) and minus (-) terminals using the fast-on connectors of the battery when maintenance or service work inside the UPS is necessary.

Do not place Ellipse near water or in environments of excessive humidity.

Do not allow liquids or any foreign objects to get inside Ellipse.

Do not block air vents in front, in the back or on the sides of Ellipse.

Do not plug household appliances such as hair dryers to Ellipse receptacles.

Do not place Ellipse under direct sunlight or close to heat-emitting sources.

The AC power receptacle shall be near the equipment and easily accessible. To isolate Ellipse from AC input, remove the input power cord from the AC power receptacle.

If Ellipse is to be stored, it is recommended to recharge the batteries (by connecting AC power source to Ellipse, switch "ON" or OFF"), once every 6 months for 8 hours to avoid a full battery discharge.

Ellipse contains batteries that should be disposed of or recycled in accordance with local laws.

Prior to installation, store Ellipse in a dry location.

Maximum ambient temperature for operation is between 32°F (0°C) and +96°F (+35°C).

Storage temperatures must be between 32°F (0°C) and +122°F (+50°C).

Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries.

When replacing the batteries, use MGE P/N 3088201000 batteries (12V-5Ah lead acid), use of any other battery may present a risk of fire or explosion.

CAUTION: Do not dispose of battery or batteries in a fire. The battery may explode. Do not open or willfully damage the battery or batteries, since the released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic. A battery can present a risk of high short circuit current.

The following precautions should be observed when working with batteries for disposal or replacement:

Switch off the UPS (on/off switch) and disconnect it from utility power;

Remove watches, rings or other metal objects,

Use tools with insulated handles.
