Do not stack multiple battery packs on a single set of mounting shelves. Failure to follow this warning may lead to product damage and/or a risk of personal bodily harm. • Use caution when lifting battery packs. Because of the considerable weight of all battery packs, at least two people should assist in lifting and installing them. • Make certain that your battery packs and UPS use the same DC voltage before connecting them. • Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide. • Suggested mounting procedures are for common rack types and may not be appropriate for all rack configurations. User must determine the fitness of rack and wallmount hardware and procedures before mounting. • When connecting multiple battery packs to a single UPS, the battery packs should be approximately the same age. • It is normal for sparks to occur when connecting external batteries. • Do not unplug external batteries from the UPS while the UPS is operating on battery power, due to the possibility of dangerous arcing. • Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current. Observe proper precautions. Do not dispose of the battery packs in a fire. Do not open the battery packs; there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Unplug and turn off the UPS before performing battery pack replacement. Use tools with insulated handles.
