Note: The batteries in the UPS are rated for a 3-5 year service life. The length
of service life depends on the frequency of usage and ambient temperature.
Batteries used beyond expected service life will often have severely reduced
runtimes. Replace batteries at least every 5 years to keep units running at
peak efficiency.

you.
3.

4.

6.3 Storing the UPS and Batteries
If you store the UPS for a long period, recharge the battery every 6 months by
connecting the UPS to utility power. The batteries charge to 90% capacity in
approximately 4 hours. However, it is recommended that the batteries charge
for 48 hours after long-term storage.
Check the battery recharge date on the shipping carton label. If the date has
passed and the batteries were never recharged, do not use the UPS. Contact
your service representative.
