Disposing of Used Batteries

The spare battery kit includes the instructions and packaging required to return used batteries

configuration with the utility voltage. For more information, refer to Chapter 3,
"Configuration."

the outside of the UPS regularly with a vacuum cleaner.
•
Maintain the ambient temperature at 25
•
If storing a UPS for an extended period, recharge the batteries every six months:
a. Connect the UPS to utility power.
b. Allow the UPS to remain in Standby mode.
c. Allow the UPS to charge the batteries for 24 hours.

Pre-Failure Battery Warranty

The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty, standard on all HP UPS units, extends the advantage of an
HP three-year limited warranty by applying it to the battery before it actually fails.
Specifically, the Pre-Failure Battery Warranty ensures that when customers receive
notification from HP power management software that the battery may fail, the battery is
replaced free of charge under the warranty.
HP maintains the highest standards in the industry, as evidenced by the HP Pre-Failure
Battery Warranty. This warranty is beneficial in at least two significant ways:
•
Reduced total cost of ownership
•
Reduced downtime
