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 between 32º F and 104º F (0º C and 40º C).

• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.

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

• Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems for life-support applications in which a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause failure or significantly alter the performance of a life-support device.

• 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of this product. Failure to heed these warnings will void the warranty.

Quick Installation

Connect the UPS to an electrical outlet.

Make sure the outlet does not share a circuit with a heavy electrical load such as an air conditioner or refrigerator.

Plug a computer, monitor and/or other equipment into the UPS system.

The UPS is designed to support only computer equipment. Connecting high power draw equipment such as household appliances or laser printers to outlets providing UPS battery backup will overload the UPS. Special outlets (clearly labeled on the rear panel) provide surge-only (not battery backup) protection designed for laser printers and other high power draw equipment.

“UPS/Surge” receptacles are used to provide connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. They also protect equipment against damaging surges and line noise. Connect the computer and monitor to the “UPS/Surge” receptacles.

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.
