Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the
installation, operation and storage of this product. Failure to heed these warnings will
void the warranty.
UPS Location Warnings
• Install the UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 32º F and 104º F
(0º C and 40º C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect the UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS
into itself; this will damage the UPS.
• Do not modify the UPS plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the ground
connection.
• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet. The warranty will be
void if anything other than Tripp Lite surge suppressors are used to connect the UPS
to an outlet.
• If the UPS receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must
provide clean, filtered, computer-grade output.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems for life-support applications in which a malfunction
or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause failure or significantly alter the
performance of a life-support device.
• Do not connect surge suppressors or extension cords to the output of the UPS. This may
damage the UPS and will void the surge suppressor and UPS warranties.
Battery Warnings
• The UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open the UPS for any reason.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burns 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. Use tools
with insulated handles. 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 in the
USA only call 1-800-SAV-LEAD or 1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-822-8837) or visit
www.rbrc.com for recycling information. Tripp Lite offers a complete line of UPS
System Replacement Battery Cartridges (R.B.C.). Visit Tripp Lite on the Web at

connectors.
