To turn off the unit, simply push down the power button again.
When operating in AC mode and utility power is interrupted, the unit will beep once
every 10 seconds to indicate that it has gone into battery mode.
When operating in battery mode, the unit will beep every time the battery voltage falls
under or rises above the acceptable limits.
This UPS is designed for "off-mode charging”, that is when it is switched off, it will
automatically recharge the internal battery as long as it remains connected to utility
power.
The display turns off in battery mode when the unit is powered off. In AC mode, the
display remains on, but no output will be provided to the outlets.
