SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the
installation, operation and storage of this product. Failure to heed these warnings
may affect the warranty.
UPS Location Warnings
• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, conductive contaminants, dust
or direct sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 32º F and 104º F
(0º C and 40º C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
• Only set the UPS upright on a sturdy flat surface. Do not block fans or ventilation holes, as
this will seriously inhibit the unit's internal cooling and cause product damage not covered
under warranty.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect your UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS into
itself; this will damage the UPS.
• Do not modify the UPS plug, and do not use an adaptor that would eliminate the UPS
ground connection.
• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet.
• If the UPS receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must provide
clean, filtered, computer-grade output.
• The mains socket-outlet that supplies the UPS should be easily accessible and located near
the UPS.
• For use on a TN power distribution system.
Equipment Connection Warnings
Short-circuit backup protection and overcurrent protection are provided by
the building installation.
To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit-provided branch circuit
overcurrent protection. The plug on the power supply cord is intended to
serve as the disconnect device. Be sure the socket-outlet is installed near
the equipment and is made easily accessible.
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can
reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly
affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended.
• Do not connect surge protectors or extension cords to the output of your UPS. This might
damage the UPS and may affect the surge protector and UPS warranties.

Important Safety Instructions
• Connect the UPS to an outlet that is adequately protected against excess currents, short
circuits and earth faults as part of the building installation.
Battery Warnings
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current.
Observe proper precautions. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Do not open the UPS
or batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Unplug and turn off
the UPS before performing battery replacement. Use tools with insulated handles. There are
no user-serviceable parts inside the UPS. Battery replacement should be performed only by
authorised service personnel using the same number and type of batteries (sealed lead-acid).
The batteries are recyclable. Refer to your local codes for disposal requirements or visit
tripplite.com/support/recycling-program for recycling information. Tripp Lite offers a complete
line of UPS System Replacement Battery Cartridges (R.B.C.). Visit Tripp Lite on the Web at
tripplite.com/products/battery-finder/ to locate the specific replacement battery for your UPS.
CAUTION: A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short-
circuit current. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in
electrical shock. The following precautions should be observed when working
on batteries:
• Remove watches, rings or other metal objects.
• Use tools with insulated handles.
• Wear rubber gloves and boots.
• Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
• Disconnect the charging source and load prior to installing or maintaining the
battery.
• Remove battery grounds during installation and maintenance to reduce likelihood
of shock.
• Remove the connection from ground if any part of the battery is determined to be
grounded.
• Unplug the UPS from the AC mains receptacle. Disconnect all cables, including the
equipment plugged into the UPS.
• Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel
knowledgeable about batteries and required precautions.
• When replacing batteries, replace with the same type and number of batteries or
battery packs.
• CAUTION: Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
• CAUTION: Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the
skin and eyes. It may be toxic.
