Storage
All connected equipment should be turned off, then disconnected from the UPS to avoid
battery drain. Unplug the UPS from its AC receptacle, then press and hold its ON/OFF button
to deactivate it. The UPS is now ready for storage. When storing the UPS for an extended
period of time, fully recharge the UPS batteries once every three months by plugging the
UPS into a live AC outlet and letting the UPS charge for 12 hours. If the UPS batteries are
discharged for an extended period of time, they will suffer a permanent loss of capacity.
