When to Replace Batteries

WARNING: There is a risk of personal injury from the hazardous energy levels
associated with UPS batteries. The maintenance and replacement of batteries
must be carried out by an authorized Compaq service representative.
WARNING: The UPS contains sealed lead-acid batteries. To reduce the risk of
fire or chemical burns take the following precautions:
Do not attempt to recharge batteries after removal from the UPS.
Do not disassemble, crush, or puncture the batteries.
Do not short the external contacts of the batteries.
Do not immerse the batteries in water.
Do not expose to temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F).
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hazardous energy, take
these precautions:
Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
Use tools with insulated handles.
The Compaq UPS T2200 XR models automatically charge the batteries when
connected to utility power. No user intervention is required while the UPS is in
use.
For information on charging the batteries when installing the UPS, see
"Completing the Installation" in Chapter 2, "Installation."
For information on keeping the batteries charged while the UPS is in
extended storage, see "Care and Storage of Batteries" in this chapter.

be replaced within 30 to 60 days.
