CAUTION! The maximum ambient operating temperature for this UPS series
is 40°C ("0 ~ 40°C" for Ambient Operation).
The external vents and openings on the UPS are provided for ventilation.
To ensure reliable operation of the UPS and to protect the UPS from over-
heating, these vents and openings must not be blocked or covered. Do not
insert any object into any of the vents or openings that may hinder the ve-
ntilation.
Install the UPS system in a well ventilated area, away from excess moistu-
re, heat, dust, flammable gas or explosives.
Leave adequate space (at least 20cm) in the front and at the rear of the
UPS system for proper ventilation.
Do not mount the UPS system with its front or rear panel facing down at
any angle.
Before usage, you must allow the UPS system to adjust to room temper-
ature (20°C~25°C or 68°F~77°F) for at least one hour to avoid moisture
condensing inside the UPS.
