If you plan to store the UPS prior to use, keep the UPS unpacked in a dry, clean and cool storage room
with an ambient temperature between -25°C and +70°C and humidity of less than 95% non-condensing.
If the packing container is removed protect the UPS from dust.
NOTE
THE UPS SYSTEM, THE BATTERY CABINET AND THE BATTERIES ARE HEAVY AND MAY TIP DURING
TRANSPORTATION CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY IF UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT CLOSELY
FOLLOWED.
8.3.2 Batteries
The battery life depends very much on the ambient temperature. It is therefore important to follow the
storage instructions/recommendations of the battery manufacturer. For long-term storage make sure
that the battery is fully recharged every 6 months. Before and after storing, charge the battery.
Always store the batteries in a dry, clean, cool environment in their original packaging. If the packing
container is removed protect the batteries from dust and humidity.
WARNING
SEALED BATTERIES MUST NEVER BE STORED IN A DISCHARGED OR PARTIALLY DISCHARGED STATE.
EXTREME TEMPERATURE, UNDER- AND OVERCHARGE AND OVER DISCHARGE WILL DESTROY BATTERIES
