2.0 Important Safety Instructions
!WARNING - Risk of electric shock, fire and personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - This manual contains important instructions that should be followed
during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.
The UPS is intended for installation in a controlled environment.
• Install the UPS in an indoor temperature- and humidity-controlled environment, free of
conductive contaminants.
• Do not install the UPS in or near water.
• In order to avoid overheating the UPS, allow proper ventilation of the unit. Do not block or cover the top,
bottom or sides of the UPS.
• Do not expose the UPS to direct sunlight or install the unit near any heat sources.
• Install the UPS onto a level surface in an upright position. Do not place the UPS on an unstable surface
such as a cart, stand or table.
• The UPS must be installed near the socket receptacle so that the cord can be easily disconnected.
To properly turn off the UPS, press the ON/OFF button for three (3) seconds, then disconnect the
input power supply cord from the AC power outlet.
• Connect the AC input power cord to a properly grounded AC supply source.
• Connect the UPS to a grounded supply circuit with proper branch circuit protection. Follow all applicable
National Electrical Codes®(NEC®) and Canadian Electrical Codes (CEC) as well as all local codes.
• This UPS is not for use in a computer room as dened in the Standard For the Fire Protection of
Information Technology Equipment, NFPA 75.
• Do not plug the UPS into a power strip. Do not daisy-chain one UPS power cord into another UPS
output receptacle.
• Do not place the UPS power cord where it may be damaged.
• Do not dispose of the UPS in a re as the battery may explode.
• Do not open or damage the battery. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes and
may be toxic.
• Turn off the UPS and disconnect the input cord from the AC power supply before cleaning. Do not use
liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a dry cloth on the exterior of the UPS. Do not open the unit.
