Basic Operation
Battery Replacement Door (bottom panel, not shown; select models only):
Under normal conditions, the original battery in your UPS will last several years.
Battery replacement should be performed only by qualified service personnel.
Refer to "Battery Warnings" in the Safety Section. Should your UPS require battery
replacement, visit Tripp Lite on the web at www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm
to locate the specific replacement battery for your UPS.
Automatic Voltage Regulation (internal, not shown; select models only):
Automatically adjusts fluctuations to incoming voltage (under/over voltages) to supply
connected equipment with 120V computer-grade output power. Automatic voltage
regulation functions separately from battery power (will not drain battery).
Storage and Service
Storage
To avoid battery drain, all connected equipment should be turned off and disconnected from the
UPS. Press and hold the ON/OFF/TEST switch for three seconds. Your UPS will be completely turned
off (deactivated), and will be ready for storage. If you plan on storing your UPS for an extended
period, fully recharge the UPS batteries every three months. Plug the UPS into a live AC outlet, turn
it on by pressing and holding the ON/OFF/TEST switch for three seconds, and allow the batteries to
recharge for 4 to 6 hours. If you leave your UPS batteries discharged for a long period of time, they
will suffer a permanent loss of capacity.
