Battery Precautions
• The batteries installed in the UPS and within the battery extensions may contain electrolyte.
Under normal conditions, the containers are dry. A damaged battery may leak electrolyte, which
can cause skin and eye irritation. Should this happen, wash the affected area with plenty of water
and seek immediate medical attention.
• Do not open or damage batteries. The released electrolyte is toxic.
• Voltage is always present on the battery contacts.
• Even when discharged, a battery has the capacity a high short circuit current which, in addition
to causing damage to the battery itself and associated cables, may expose the operator to the risk
of burns. The following precautions should be observed when working with batteries:
• Remove watches, rings and other metal objects.
• Use tools with insulated handles.
• The voltage of a single cell of a battery is not dangerous. However a number of cells or battery
blocks, connected in series, can produce hazardous voltages.
• The battery cabinet must not be kept in storage or not used for periods exceeding six months (at
20°C) without being recharged (having been charged to 100% at the beginning of any such period).
If this period is exceeded, it is essential that the batteries be recharged (which requires the UPS
to be switched On). If these conditions are not met, the battery performance can no longer be
guaranteed. We recommend recharging the batteries at least once every four months.
• Since new batteries often do not provide full capacity after the initial charge, it may be necessary
to carry out a number of discharge/recharge cycles before optimum performance is reached.
• When replacing batteries, replace with the same type and number of batteries and battery packs.
• In order to protect the environment, batteries must be disposed of in accordance with local laws
concerning the safe disposal of toxic and harmful waste.
• Do no not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.

Configuration Program
The final step of installation may require custom configuration of your UPS using the enclosed config-
uration program. Some configuration settings may be changed only while the UPS is Off. These
should be set before the UPS is put into full-time use.
For most users operating with 230VAC, the factory default settings will be adequate.
