IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important instructions that you should follow during installation and
maintenance of the UPS and batteries. Please read all instructions before operating the
equipment and save this manual for future reference.
This UPS contains LETHAL VOLTAGES. All repairs and service should be performed by

Ensure all power is disconnected before performing installation or service.
Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock or burn from high short-circuit current.
Observe proper precautions. Servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel
knowledgeable of batteries and required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away
from batteries.
Proper disposal of batteries is required. Refer to your local codes for disposal requirements.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire. Batteries may explode when exposed to flame.
