such application, the PURCHASER shall represent that the Product sold has been properly installed and
grounded in accordance with instructions received from BEST POWER, and the PURCHASER shall also
specify the computer equipment to which the Product sold has been connected and the location of the 
computer equipment. This warranty will not apply to any equipment not specified in the application by the
PURCHASER as protected equipment.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY AND BEST POWER’S LIMITED TWO
YEAR WARRANTY, BEST POWER MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, AND TO THE EXTENT
ALLOWED BY LAW, BEST POWER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF 
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

REMEDIES UNDER THIS WARRANTY ARE EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE REPAIR OR
REPLACEMENT OF PRODUCTS AND THE REIMBURSEMENT SPECIFIED ABOVE, AND TO THE
EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW ANY CLAIMS FOR LOSS ARISING OUT OF THE FAILURE OF
PRODUCTS TO PERFORM FOR ANY PERIOD OF TIME, OR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS ARE EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED.

Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so that the above limitation on
duration of implied warranties may not apply to you. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This 
warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
You are advised to consult applicable state laws.

Appendix A: Adjusting Voltage Settings

When the unit is not sounding an alarm, you can use the Alarm/Program button shown below to
change the following:

• Nominal  Voltage — The normal voltage the UPS is programmed to expect, and the nominal UPS

output voltage under line loss conditions.

• Buck — The input voltage at which the Fortress decreases voltage before providing output because

the input voltage is too high.

• Boost — The input voltage at which the Fortress increases voltage before providing output because

the input voltage is too low.

• Transfer to Inverter — The point at which the UPS switches to inverter (battery power), either

because AC input voltage is very low or because it is very high.

Note:

Make sure you want to change these values before you start the procedure below. Once
you press the button shown for 10 seconds, the values will change to the default values,
and any previous changes you have made will be lost. If you have a question, contact
the nearest Best Power office, or call Worldwide Service at 1-800-356-5737 or 1-608-
565-2100.
