If this warning light and alarm are on, you need
to add distilled water to the battery. (This alarm
cannot be silenced. When the battery is refilled
and the sensor is replaced, the alarm will go off
automatically.)
REFILLING THE BATTERY
1. Unplug the charger from the wall outlet.
2. Remove the cover of the battery box by
pushing in the tabs on the front and back,
then lifting up.
3. Fan the area around the top of the battery
with a piece of cardboard (or another non-
metallic material) to remove any hydrogen or
oxygen gas that may have been emitted from
the battery.
4. Remove the fluid sensor from the top of the
battery, and then unscrew the wing nuts and
remove the battery cables from the battery.
5. Pry up the two battery caps. Add distilled
water to each cell. If distilled water is not
available, tap water with a low mineral
content may be used. Well water is not
recommended.
NEVER ADD MORE ACID.
Fill
the battery to level 2 as shown in Diagram E
on page 8. (The Pro Series battery filler will
automatically fill the level to the correct
height. See enclosed order form.)
6. Replace the battery caps. Replace the fluid
sensor in the hole on the top of the battery or
in the battery cap, depending on which
battery you own. Be sure the fluid sensor is
positioned in the 2nd cell from the positive
post. The hole is marked with an arrow.
7. Replace the battery cables…the WHITE wire
to the NEGATIVE (-) post, and the BLACK wire
to the POSITIVE (+) post. Replace the wing
nuts and tighten.
8. Replace the cover of the battery.
9. Plug the charger back into the outlet. (You
should provide additional protection for the
control unit by using a surge protector.)
10. If any of the alarms are sounding, press the
white button on the front of the control
panel for one (1) second.

The pump was activated
When the water rises in the
sump pit and activates the
float switch, the pump will
begin pumping, and the
“Pump was activated” light
and alarm will turn on. The
alarm stays on to alert you to
the fact that the standby
system was used to empty
water from the sump. Try to
determine what caused the
system to activate.
• Check the main AC pump for
failure. It may not be
working, the float switch may be stuck, or it
may be too small to handle the inflow of water.
• Make sure the check valve is working and
installed correctly.
• Make sure the discharge pipe is not clogged or
frozen.
• If the power was out, the backup pump was
automatically activated. You need to push the
WHITE button on the front of the control panel
to reset the alarm.
During a power outage or times when the pump
is activated repeatedly, you can temporarily
silence the alarm by sliding the “Audible Alarm”
switch to OFF.
When the primary pump has
resumed normal operation, and the backup
pump is no longer activating repeatedly, slide
the switch to the ON position to resume the
full monitoring capability.
The alarm and
pump light will still be on. Push the WHITE
button on the front of the control panel to
silence the alarm.
REPLACING THE PUMP
Unplug the main AC pump when installing or
servicing the backup pump to avoid electric
shock. Failure to do so could cause serious
injury or death. Review the safety
instructions on page 1.
