Under normal conditions, the original batteries in the UPS system will last several years.
The batteries are designed for hot-swap replacement (i.e. replacement while the UPS
system is in ON mode), but some qualified service personnel may wish to put the UPS
system in OFF mode and disconnect equipment before proceeding.
