Important Safety Instructions

UPS Location Warnings
• Install the UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 32º F and 104º F
(0º C and 40º C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
• Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle).
Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit's internal cooling, eventually
causing product damage not covered under warranty.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect the UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS
into itself; this will damage the UPS.
• Do not modify the UPS plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the ground
connection.
• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet. The warranty will be
void if anything other than Tripp Lite surge suppressors are used to connect the UPS
to an outlet.
• If the UPS receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must
provide clean, filtered, computer-grade output.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can
reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly
affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the
presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
• Do not connect surge suppressors or extension cords to the output of the UPS. This may
damage the UPS and will void the surge suppressor and UPS warranties.
Battery Warnings
• The UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open the UPS for any reason. There
are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burns from high short-circuit current.
Observe proper precautions. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Do not open the UPS or
batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Use tools with insulated
handles. Battery replacement should be performed only by authorized service personnel using
the same number and type of batteries (Sealed Lead-Acid). The batteries are recyclable. Refer
to your local codes for disposal requirements or in the USA only call 1-800-SAV-LEAD or
1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-822-8837) or visit www.rbrc.com for recycling information.
Tripp Lite offers a complete line of UPS System Replacement Battery Cartridges (R.B.C.).
Visit Tripp Lite on the Web at www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the
specific replacement battery for your UPS.
• Do not attempt to add external batteries unless your UPS includes external battery connectors.

Quick Installation
Connect the UPS to
a 120V AC electrical outlet.
Make sure the outlet does not share a circuit
with a heavy electrical load such as an air
conditioner or refrigerator.
Plug your equipment into
the UPS.
The battery backup receptacles A provide
filtered AC power during normal operation and
provide battery backup power during blackouts
and extreme voltage irregularities. Connect your
computer and monitor to the battery backup
receptacles.*
One or more surge-only receptacles B attached
to short cords at the rear of the UPS provide AC
line protection without battery backup. These
receptacles will protect equipment that would
overload the UPS or greatly reduce backup time
if connected to the battery backup receptacles.
Note: High-amperage equipment such as laser printers,
refrigerators, air conditioners and electric heaters should not
be connected to the UPS.
* Your UPS is designed to only support computer equipment.
You will overload the UPS if the total VA ratings for all the
equipment you connect to the (A) outlets exceeds the UPS’s
Output Capacity. To find your equipment’s VA ratings, look on
their nameplates. If the equipment is listed in amps, multiply
the number of amps by 120 to determine VA. (Example: 1 amp
x 120 = 120 VA.) If you are unsure if you have overloaded the
(A) outlets, run a self-test (see “MUTE/TEST” button
description).
Select UPS Operating Mode.
Press the ON/OFF button to toggle the UPS
between the ON (“ ” LED lit) and the OFF
(“ ” LED not lit) modes.
