reattach the front metal bezel cover to the UPS.
NOTE:
The internal battery pack is hot-swappable. However, caution should be exercised because the load is unprotected
from disturbances and power failures during this procedure. Do not replace the battery while the UPS is operating in
Battery Mode. This will result in a loss of output power and will drop the connected load.
10.2 Battery Charging
The batteries are valve-regulated, non-spillable, lead acid and should be kept charged to attain their design life. The UPS
charges the batteries continuously when it is connected to the mains input power.
if the UPS will be stored for a long time, SolaHD recommends connecting the UPS to input power for at least 24 hours
every four to six months to ensure full recharge of the batteries.
