CAUTIONS:

It is recommended that you turn the UPS off and disconnect it from the

AC wall outlet prior to connecting or disconnecting the battery terminals.

If battery packs MUST be changed while the UPS is supplying power to

protected equipment, they can ONLY be changed while the AC line is

supplying power. DO NOT attempt to replace batteries or battery packs

while the UPS is in battery backup mode. Be extremely careful while

plugging or unplugging additional battery packs. Insure that the cable

connectors have the proper polarity aligned before plugging them

together. Improper alignment may result in a short circuit that can

destroy the battery packs and the UPS, as well as cause a fire and injury

hazard.

If a unit must be opened to replace the batteries, the following

precautions must be followed.

1. Disconnect all receptacles, line cords and battery connectors

BEFORE removing the case screws.

2. Remove watches, rings, and other metallic jewelry before servicing

the batteries.

3. Use tools with insulated handles.

4. Wear protective gloves and eyewear.

5. Do not lay tools or other objects on top of the batteries.

6. It is recommended that you make yourself a sketch of the batteries

and their connections BEFORE you attempt to remove the old

batteries. Insure all connections to the new batteries are EXACTLY

the same as they were on the old batteries.

7. Verify that all battery brackets and mechanical fittings are replaced

exactly as they were removed.
