2. Important Safety Warnings 6) Determine whether the battery supply (+, -, N) is inadvertently grounded. If it is, remove the source of the ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electric shock. The likelihood of an electric shock is reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance. • Battery replacement should be performed only by authorized service personnel, using the same number and type of batteries (sealed lead acid). WARNING: In order to avoid any hazardous conditions during UPS installation and maintenance, these tasks may be performed only by qualified and experienced electricians. Please read this Owner's Manual and the safety instructions carefully before installing or using the unit. 2.4 Transportation and Storage To protect against shock and impact, transport the UPS system only in the original packaging. The UPS must be stored in a room that is dry and ventilated. 2.5 Preparation Condensation may occur if the UPS system is moved directly from a cold to a warm environment. The UPS system must be completely dry before being installed. Please allow at least two hours for the UPS system to adjust to the environment. Do not install the UPS system near water or in moist environments. Do not install the UPS system in direct sunlight or near heat sources. Do not block the ventilation holes on the UPS system's housing. 2.6 Installation Do not connect appliances or devices that could overload the UPS (i.e., equipment with electrical motors) to the UPS output sockets or terminal. Carefully arrange cables so no one can step on or trip over them. Do not block the UPS system's air vents. The UPS must be installed in a location with good ventilation. Ensure adequate ventilation space on each side of the unit. The UPS contains an earthed terminal. In the final installed system configuration, ensure equipotential earth grounding to the external UPS battery cabinet by connecting the earth terminals of both cabinets together. The UPS should only be installed by qualified maintenance electrical service personnel. An appropriate disconnect device such as short-circuit backup protection must be provided in the building wiring installation. An integral single-emergency switching device should be included in the building wiring installation. Connect the earth ground before connecting to the building wiring terminal. Installation and wiring must be performed in accordance with local electrical codes and regulations. 6
