4. Important Safety Warning (SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS)
CAUTION!
To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, install the UPS in a temperature and
humidity controlled indoor area, free of conductive contaminants. (See specifications for
acceptable temperature and humidity ranges.)
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of overheating the UPS, do not cover the UPS' cooling vents
and avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or installing it near heat emitting appliances, such as
space heaters or furnaces.
CAUTION!
Do not attach to UPS non-computer-related items, such as medical equipment,
life-support equipment, microwave ovens, or vacuum cleaners.
CAUTION!
Do not plug the UPS input into its own output.
CAUTION!
Do not allow liquids or any foreign object to enter the UPS. Do not place
beverages or any other liquid-containing vessels on or near the unit.
CAUTION!
In case of an emergency, press the OFF button and disconnect the power cord
from the AC power supply to properly disable the UPS.
CAUTION!
Do not attach a power strip or surge suppressor to the UPS.
CAUTION!
With the installation of this equipment, it should be prevented that the sum of
the leakage current of the UPS to the connected consumer exceeds 3.5mA.
Attention
hazardous through electric shock. Even disconnecting this unit from the mains,
hazardous voltage still may be accessible through supply from battery. The battery supply
should be therefore disconnected in the plus and minus pole at the quick connectors of the
battery when maintenance or service work inside the UPS is necessary.
CAUTION!
Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by people
knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away
from batteries.
CAUTION!
When replacing the batteries, use the same number and type of batteries.
CAUTION!
Internal battery voltage is 12VDC. Sealed, lead-acid, 6-cell battery.
CAUTION!
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The battery may explode. Do not open or
mutilate the battery or batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes.
CAUTION!
Unplug the UPS prior to cleaning and do not use liquid or spray detergent.
CAUTION!
A battery can present a risk of electric shock and high short circuit current. The
following precaution should be observed before replacing batteries:
1) Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
2) Use tools with insulated handles.
3) Wear rubber gloves and boots.
4) Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
5) Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting batteries terminal.
5. Software Download & Installation (Only for the model with

When power fails,
back-up time is too
short
The UPS is overload.
Remove some critical load.
Battery voltage is too low.
Charge the UPS at least 6 hours.
Battery defect. It might be
due to high temperature
operation environment, or
improper operation to
battery.
Replace the battery with the same
type of battery.
