• Do not connect equipment that may overload the UPS or demand half-wave
rectification, such as a laser printer.
• Connect the UPS only to an earthed / grounded socket that meets electrical safety
guidelines.
• Locate the UPS near a wall socket. Do not use an extension cord between the UPS and
the socket.
• Use CE-marked cables only for connections between mains, the UPS and equipment.
• The Liebert PSA has been designed for small office/home office use only; it is NOT
recommended for use in life-support applications.
• In the event of an emergency, press the OFF button and disconnect the power cord
from the AC mains to properly disable the UPS.
• Do not attach power strips or surge suppressors to the UPS.
• Do not attempt to service any parts inside the UPS except the batteries. Failure to adhere
to this could cause personal injury or equipment malfunction and void the warranty.

Step 1 Inspect the Package
Inspect the package and the UPS upon receipt. Notify the carrier and dealer of visible
damage.
Step 2 Decide Where to Place the UPS
The UPS must be placed indoors, protected from water, direct
sunlight and excessive heat.
Provide at least 100mm (4") of clearance on all sides of the unit
for proper ventilation.
Step 3 Charge the UPS Battery Before
Use
The UPS battery is not charged before shipping. It MUST be charged before use.
• Connect a user-supplied power cord from the UPS to a wall socket and charge for at
least eight hours.
Note:
If battery is placed in storage, charge the battery every six months if kept at
-15°C to +29°C (5°F to 85°F)—or every three months if kept at 30°C (86°F) or higher.
Step 4 Start the UPS
After the battery is fully charged:
• Turn on the UPS by pressing the On/Off button (see
below).
LED 1 should be illuminated (green), indicating the UPS is operating in Normal Mode.
Step 5 Connect the Loads
The UPS has three battery backup sockets that
provide power when the UPS operates on bat-
tery (see
below).
• Plug the loads into the battery backup sock-
ets on the rear of the UPS.
Caution:
Do not connect a laser printer to the
UPS.
Step 6 Connect the Network Surge Protection
The UPS has two RJ-45 jacks for network lines (see
below).
• Connect a single-line network cable into the RJ-45
network surge protection IN jack on the rear of the
UPS.
• Connect an RJ-45 cable from the OUT jack on the
rear of the UPS to a port on a PC or network device such as a router.
Step 7 Set Up Liebert shutdown software
To start using the Liebert shutdown software:
• Install the Liebert shutdown software. See the software
user manual for installation instructions.
• Connect one end of the USB cable (supplied) to the
USB port on the rear of the UPS. Connect the other end
to a USB port on the computer. See the software user
manual for operating instructions.
