Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the
installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite UPS Systems. Failure to heed these
warnings will void your warranty.
UPS Location Warnings
• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, conductive contaminants,
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.
• Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle).
Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit's internal cooling, eventually
causing product damage not covered under warranty.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect your 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's plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the UPS's
ground connection.
• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet. Your warranty will be
voided if anything other than Tripp Lite surge suppressors are used to connect your 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 your UPS. This
might damage the UPS and will void the surge suppressor and UPS warranties.
Battery Warnings
Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn 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. Unplug and turn
off the UPS before performing battery replacement. Use tools with insulated handles.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the UPS. 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. Tripp Lite offers a complete line of UPS System Replacement
Battery Cartridges (R.B.C.). Visit Tripp Lite on the Web at
www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the specific replacement battery
for your UPS.
