2.6 Operation
Before connecting equipment to the UPS outlet, you must perform the initial
configuration. Very important here is the output voltage going to the connected
equipment.
The UPS device contains an energy storage facility (battery), which means the
outlet can carry electricity even if the USP is not connected to a power supply.
To switch the UPS off completely, first, hold the OFF button for longer than 3
seconds and wait for the UPS to shut down. Next, disconnect the power supply
connector from the device. Make sure no liquids or foreign materials gain ac-
cess to the UPS' interior. To protect the UPS, it is best to avoid lasting output
loads greater than 80%. The output load shown on the display is only a guide.
To determine the actual output load, extra measurements with a suitable de-
vice are necessary.
2.7 Handling Batteries
Attention! Danger of shock and burns
Batteries can produce electrical shock and short circuit currents that are
capable of burning tissue.
Keep unqualified persons away from batteries.
Do not place batteries in or around sources of heat, e.g. fire, because
they may explode!
Do not open or destroy batteries. The electrolyte is extremely hazardous
for persons and the environment (danger of burns to eyes and skin; poi-
son).
