13 – Storage and Service
Storage
The UPS system must be stored in a clean, secure environment with a temperature less than 40° C (104° F) and a relative humidity less than
90% (non-condensing). Store the UPS system in its original shipping container if possible. If installation occurs more than 6 months after
you receive the UPS system, recharge the batteries for at least 24 hours prior to use. Do not rely on the UPS system to provide backup power
to connected equipment until the batteries are fully charged. Note: If the UPS system remains off for an extended period of time, it should be
turned on periodically to allow the batteries to recharge. The UPS system should be turned on and the batteries should be recharged at least one
uninterrupted 24-hour period every 3 months. Failure to recharge the batteries periodically may cause irreversible battery damage.
