• This UPS utilizes voltage that may be hazardous. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit. The unit contains no user replaceable parts. Only factory service personnel may perform repairs.
• This pluggable type A equipment with battery already installed by the supplier is operator installable and may be operated by laymen.
• The mains socket outlet that supplies the UPS shall be installed
• near the UPS and shall be easily accessible.
• During the installation of this equipment it should be assured that the sum of the leakage currents of the UPS and the connected loads does not exceed 3.5mA.
• Connection to any other type of receptacle other than a
• two-pole, three-wire grounded receptacle may result in shock hazard as well as violate local electrical codes.
• In the event of an emergency, press the “OFF” button and
• disconnect the power cord from the AC power supply to properly disable the UPS.
• Do not allow any liquids or any foreign object to enter the UPS.
• Do not place beverages or any other liquid-containing vessels on or near the unit.
• This unit intended for installation in a controlled environment (temperature controlled, indoor area free of conductive contaminants). Avoid installing the UPS in locations where there is standing or running water, or excessive humidity.
• Do not plug the UPS input into its own output.
• Do not attach a power strip or surge suppressor to the UPS.
• Do not attach non-computer-related items, such as medical equipment, life-support equipment, microwave ovens, or vacuum cleaners to UPS.
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode.
• Unplug the UPS prior to cleaning and do not use liquid or spray detergent.
• A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. The following precautions should be observed when working on batteries:

1. Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects from the hands.
2. Use tools with insulated handles.
3. Wear rubber gloves and boots.
4. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
5. Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting batteries terminal.
6. Determine if battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source from ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock can be reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance.
