1BIMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important instructions that should be followed
during installation and maintenance of the UPS.
zIntended for installation in a controlled environment.
zMaximum ambient temperature 104°F (40°F).
CAUTION! To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, install in a
temperature and humidity controlled indoor area free of conductive
contaminants. (See the specifications for the acceptable temperature
and humidity range.)
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of overheating the UPS, do not cover the
UPS' cooling vents and avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight or
installing the unit near heat emitting appliances such as space heaters
or furnaces.
CAUTION! Do not attach non-computer-related items, such as medical
equipment, life-support equipment, microwave ovens, or vacuum
cleaners to UPS.
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 the event 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! If the UPS is with metal chassis, for safety purpose,
grounding is a must during UPS installation in order to reduce leakage
current below 3.5mA.
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.
Attention hazardous through electric shock. Also with
disconnection of 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 personnel knowledgeable of batteries and the
required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from
batteries.
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.
SETUP
4BStep 1 Inspect the Package
Inspect the package and the UPS upon receipt. Notify the carrier and
dealer of visible damage.
UPS Quick-startguide Outputcable
5BStep 2 Decide Where to Place the UPS
The UPS must be placed indoors, protected from water, direct sunlight
and excessive heat.
Provide at least 7.8” (20 cm) of clearance on all sides of the unit for
proper ventilation.
6BStep 3 Charge the UPS Battery Before Use
The UPS battery is fully charged before shipping. However, some
charge may be lost during shipping and the battery should be
recharged prior to use.
zPlug in the AC input cord of personal computer or office
equipment to the wall outlet. Use the supplied output cable to
connect between UPS and personal computer or office equipment.
For the best results, suggest to charge the battery at least 4 hours
before initial use. The unit charges its battery while connecting to
the utility.
7BStep 4 Start the UPS
After the battery is fully charged:
zTurn on the UPS by pressing the On/Off button. (see below
figure)
LED 1 should be illuminated (green), indicating the UPS is
operating in Normal mode.
8BStep 5 Connect the Loads
The UPS has three battery backup outlets that provide power
when the UPS operates on battery. (see Figure 2 on next page)
zPlug the loads into the battery backup outlets on the rear of
the UPS.
CAUTION: NEVER connect a laser printer or scanner to the UPS unit.
This may cause the damage of the unit.
