1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This product is designed for home and office usage and it is not recommended for any medical
equipment, life-supporting system and other specific important equipment.
Do not plug appliances such as hair dryers, microwave ovens or vacuum cleaners to UPS.
Do not plug the UPS into its own output.
Connection to any other type of receptable other than two-pole, three-wire grounded receptacle
may result in shock hazard as well as violate local electrical codes.
To reduce risk of overheating the UPS, do not cover the UPS´ cooling vents.
This unit intended for installation in a controlled environment, only indoor. Do not install the UPS in
locations where there is standing or running water or excessive humidity or any of the following
environments:
oAny area with combustible gas, corrosive substance or heavy dust.
oAny area with extraordinarily high or low temperature (above 40˚C or below 0˚C) and humidity of
more than 90%.
oAny area exposed to direct sunshine or near any heating apparatus.
oAny area with serious vibrations.
In the event of an emergency or smoke coming out of the unit, press OFF button and disconnect
the power cord from the AC power supply to properly disable the UPS.
The internal short circuiting of the UPS will lead to dangers such as electric shock or fire; therefore
do not allow liquids or any foreign object to enter the UPS. No water containers (such as a water
glass) or any other liquid-containing vessels shall be placed on the top of the UPS so as to avoid
such dangers as electric shock.
Please do not use the UPS in excess of the rated load capacity.
Unplug the UPS prior to cleaning and do not use liquid or spray detergent.
Risk of electric shock, do not attempt to disassemble the unit. No user serviceable parts inside.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
If UPS is to be stored for a long time, it is recommended to recharge the batteries (by connecting
the utility power to UPS, switch “ON”), once a month for 24 hours to avoid a full battery discharge.
Servicing (replacement) of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel
knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away
from batteries.
A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. The following
precautions should be observed when working on batteries:
oRemove watches, rings, or other metal objects from the hand.

3
oUse tools with insulated handles and wear rubber gloves and boots.
oDo not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
oDisconnect charging source prior connecting or disconnecting batteries terminals.
When replacing batteries, replace with the same type and number of the sealed lead-acid
batteries.
oNever short circuit batteries. When working with batteries, remove watches, rings and other
metal objects, and only use insulated tools.
oThe battery must be replaced exclusively by qualified personnel (risk of shock). Prohibit users
from their own battery replacement. Contact your reseller if need.
The maximum ambient temperature rating is 40°C.
Do not dispose of battery or 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. It may be toxic.
Icon Φ on the rating label stands for phase symbol.
This is pluggable equipment with pre-installed batteries and may be operated by laymen.
During the installation of this equipment it should be assured that the sum of the leakage currents
of the UPS and the connected loads does not exceed 3.5mA.
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 of the battery when maintenance or service
work inside the UPS is necessary.
In the event that there is fire occurring in the vicinity, please use dry-power extinguishers. The use
of liquid extinguishers may give rise to the danger of electric shock.
This product complies with the safety and environmental regulations in EU.
If the time arises to throw away your product, please recycle all the components possible. Batteries
and rechargeable batteries are not to be disposed in your domestic waste! Please recycle them at
your local recycling point. Together we can help to protect the environment.

6. Installation and Initial Startup
Before installation, please inspect the unit. The unit is prepared without any falling
objects or physical dmanage.
I: Placement & Storage Conditions
Install the UPS in a protected area that is free of excessive dust and has adequate air flow
around the unit, and is free from excessive dust, corrosive fumes and conductive
contaminants. Please place the UPS away from other units at least 20 cm to avoid
interference. Do NOT operate the UPS where the temperature exceeds 0-40° C and the
humidity is over 0-90 % RH.
II: Connect to Utility and Charge
Plug in the AC input cord to the 2-pole, 3-wire grounded wall outlet. For the best results, we
suggest charging the battery at least 6 hours with no load (no electrical devices such as computers,
monitors, rtc.) connected before initial use. The unit charges its battery while connecting to the
utility.
III: Connect the Loads
Plug in the loads to output receptacles on the rear panel of the UPS. Simply turn on the
power switch of UPS unit, and devices connected to the UPS will be protected by UPS unit.
Do not attach a power strip or surge suppressor to the UPS.

IV: Connect LAN cable, Modem line for Surge Protection
Connect for example a single modem line into surge-protected outlet on the back panel of the UPS
unit. Connect from another outlet to the computer with another line cable.
V: Connect USB Cable
To monitor the UPS status, such as unattended UPS shutdown and start-up, by using
bundled software, please connect the UPS and PC with USB cable included.
NEVER connect a laser printer or scanner to the UPS unit,
because in-rush current generated by motor’s devices may
cause the damage of the unit.

8. Software Installation on your PC
Connected by USB to a PC or notebook, the Software enables communication between the UPS and
the computer. The UPS software monitors the status of the UPS, shuts down the system before
the UPS is exhausted and can remotely observe the UPS via the Network (enabling users to
manage their system more effectively). Upon AC failure or UPS battery low, UPS takes all necessary
actions without intervention from the system administrator. In addition to automatic file saving
and system shut-down functions, it can also send warning messages via pager, e-mail etc.
