WARNING
This UPS contains its own energy source (batteries). The output receptacles
may carry live voltage even when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.
For 220–240V models, the output receptacles may remain electrically live. If
the input power source in your application is wired line-to-neutral (as in
most European applications), the voltage to the output receptacles is 0V.
With line -to-line input wiring, the v oltage to the output receptacles is
110–120V (measured from line-to-ground or line-to-neutral, depending on
the UPS wiring).
Do not remove or unplug the input cord when the UPS is turned on. This
removes the safety ground from the UPS and the equipment connected to
the UPS.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, install this UPS in a temperature
and humidity controlled, indoor environment, free of conductive
contaminants. Ambient temperature must not exceed 40GC (104GF). Do not
operate near water or excessive humidity (95% max).
To comply with international standards and wiring regulations, the total
equipment connected to the output of this UPS must not have an earth
leakage current greater than 1.5 milliamperes.
