Storage and Service
Storage
Before storing your UPS, turn it completely OFF: with the UPS ON and receiving utility power, press
and hold the "ON/OFF/STANDBY" button for one second (an alarm will beep once briefly after the
interval has passed); then, unplug the UPS from the wall outlet. If you store your UPS for an
extended period of time, recharge the UPS batteries once every three months: plug the UPS into a wall
outlet; allow it to charge for 12 hours; and then unplug it and place it back in storage. Note: after you
plug the UPS in, it will automatically begin charging its batteries; however, it will not supply power to
its outlets (see Quick Installation section). If you leave your UPS batteries discharged for an
extended period of time, they will suffer a permanent loss of capacity.
Service
