1-5. Maintenance, service and faults

The voltage used by this UPS may be hazardous. The unit contains no user serviceable parts; do not attempt to disassemble the 
unit. Only qualified service technicians can perform maintenance on the unit. Failure to adhere to this could cause personal injury or 
equipment malfunction and void the warranty. 

Caution:

 - risk of electric shock. Even after the unit is disconnected from the mains, components inside the UPS system are still 

connected to the battery packs which are potentially dangerous. 
Before carrying out any kind of service and/or maintenance, disconnect the batteries and verify that no current is present and no 
hazardous voltage exists in the terminals of high capacity capacitors, such as BUS-capacitors. Servicing of batteries should be 
performed or supervised by experts who possess the knowledge to closely follow all required precautions.
To avoid electrical shock, turn off the unit and unplug it form the AC power source before servicing the battery. 

Caution:

 potentially hazardous voltages from the battery can still be present even after disconnecting the UPS from the AC mains. 

Therefore, the positive and negative terminals of the battery shall de disconnected prior to performing any maintenance or repair 
inside the unit. 
A battery can present the risk of short-circuit current and electrical shock. The following precautions should be taken:
- Remove wristwatches, rings and other metal objects
- Use only tools with insulated grips and handles. 
- Wear rubber gloves and boots.
- Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
- Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.
- Determine if battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source from ground. Contact with any
part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock can be reduced if such grounds
are removed during installation and maintenance.
When replacing the battery, make sure to use the same type and number of sealed lead-acid batteries specified. We recommend 
using the Forza FUB-1290, a 12V 9A cell. 
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. Batteries may explode if exposed to high temperatures.
Never try to open a battery. The cell contains a toxic electrolyte which is harmful to the skin and eyes.
Replace the fuse only with the same type and amperage in order to avoid fire hazards. 
Do not dismantle the UPS system.

FDC-3002R

Install the UPS unit in any protected environment that provides adequate airflow around the unit, and free from excessive dust, corrosi-
ve fumes and conductive contaminants. Do not operate your UPS in an environment where the ambient temperature or humidity is 
high. For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 0° C and 40° C. Place the UPS unit at least 20 cm away from 
monitors to avoid interference.
