Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! The mounting shelves are not intended to support more than
one battery pack. Do not stack multiple battery packs on a single set of
mounting shelves. Failure to follow this warning may lead to product
damage and/or risk of personal bodily harm.
• Use caution when lifting battery packs. Because of the considerable weight of
all battery packs, at least two people should assist in lifting and installing
them.
• Make certain the battery packs and UPS use the same DC voltage before
connecting them.
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this
equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support
equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not
recommended.
• Suggested mounting procedures are for common rack types and may not be
appropriate for all rack configurations. User must determine the fitness of rack and
wall-mount hardware and procedures before mounting.
• When connecting multiple battery packs to a single UPS, the battery packs should be
approximately the same age.
• It is normal for sparks to occur when connecting external batteries.
• Do not unplug external batteries from the UPS while the UPS is operating on battery
power, due to the possibility of dangerous arcing.
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit
current. Observe proper precautions. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Do not
open the UPS or batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any
object. Unplug and turn off the UPS before performing battery replacement. Use tools
with insulated handles. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the UPS. Battery
replacement should be performed only by authorized service personnel using the
same number and type of batteries (Sealed Lead-Acid). The batteries are
recyclable. Refer to your local codes for disposal requirements or visit
