After 10 seconds, the LCD and UPS turn off.
The first time you plug your UPS into an appropriately rated receptacle using the power cord (C), the system turns
off this one-time Transport Mode and the power button then functions normally. For more information, see
“Understanding the UPS Power Button” on page
Charging Your UPS, the First Time
You must first charge your UPS (A) for at least eight hours before it can provide direct backup power to connected
devices.
Whether the UPS is turned on or off, the auto charge feature automatically charges the pre-installed, internal battery
whenever the UPS is plugged directly into an appropriately rated AC power receptacle using the supplied power cord (C).
NOTE
First, use the supplied power cord (C) and directly plug your UPS into AC power and allow
it to charge for eight hours before providing direct backup power to connected devices.
Determining Your Equipment Power Requirements
Ensure that the equipment plugged into the UPS (A) does not exceed its rated capacity. If they are exceeded, an
overload condition may occur and cause the UPS to shut down or the circuit breaker to trip.
Many factors affect the power requirements of your electronic equipment connected to your UPS. For optimal system
performance always keep the overall load of the unit below 80% of the rated capacity.
Understanding UPS Installation Requirements
NOTE
Before installing your UPS (A), carefully review the following considerations to select a
proper location. Most considerations apply to Expandable Battery options (not included) as
well.
1. The UPS should be placed on a flat, clean surface. Place it in an area away from vibration, dust, humidity,
high temperature, flammable liquids, gases, corrosive, and conductive contaminants. Install the UPS indoors
in a clean environment, where it is away from windows and doors. Maintain a minimum clearance of 3.94”
(100mm) on the bottom of the UPS to avoid dust and high temperatures.
2. Maintain an ambient temperature range of 32ºF (0ºC) to 104ºF (40ºC) for optimal UPS operation.
3. Maintain a maximum altitude of 1093.61yd. (1000m) to keep the UPS within normal operation at full load. If
used in high altitudes, please reduce the connected load. Altitude derating power with connected loads for
UPS normal operation is listed as follows:
