When to replace batteries? 

Batteries should be replaced if the "Battery requires handling" message appears and 

a continuous sound signal is generated, or if operating time in the battery mode is too 

short. To order new batteries, contact service support. 

DISPOSING OF THE USED BATTERIES OR THE UPS UNIT 

The  disposal / recycling  of  UPS  units  and/or  batteries  should  be  entrusted  to  a 

specialist waste contractor with suitable  licence or authorization to engage in  waste 

disposal / recycling. Rechargeable batteries that have been used up are classified as 

"dangerous toxic waste" and, according to legal regulations, must be disposed of or 

recycled by an approved recycling facility.  

The manufacturer’s service centre  has all the equipment  necessary to handle  such 

batteries  and  equipment  in  the  way  that  fully  complies  with  the  relevant  laws  and 

regulations  and  with  the  utmost  care  for  the  environment.  Please  contact  our 

Customer  Service  Department  to  arrange  maintenance  and / or  replacement  of 

batteries or the complete UPS unit.  

After  replacing  the  batteries,  the  approved  waste  disposal  /  recycling  facility  should 

dispose of / recycle the used batteries.  

The appropriate utilization of used electric and electronic equipment helps to protect 

human health and the natural environment against the negative effects caused by the 

presence  of  hazardous  materials  and  components,  and  the  improper  storage  and 

processing of such equipment.  

Act dated July 29,.2005 on used electric and electronic devices Art. 22.1 Item 1.2.

 

The  crossed  out  waste  container  symbol  means  that,  in  the 

European  Union,  a  used  product  should  be  handed  over  to  a 

special waste handling outlet. This requirement applies both to the 

UPS  unit  itself  and  to  all  other  accessories  marked  with  this 

symbol.  Such  products  should  not  be  disposed  of  together  with 

unsorted municipal waste.
