CAUTION!
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the UPS from the main
power supply before installing a computer interface signal cable.
Reconnect the power cord only after signaling interconnections have
been made.
• The internal energy source (the battery) cannot be de-energized by the
user. The output may be energized when the unit is not connected to a
main power supply, thus a shock hazard may be present.
• CAUTION: (RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK) -
HAZARDOUS LIVE PARTS INSIDE THIS UNIT ARE ENERGIZED
FROM THE BATTERY SUPPLY EVEN WHEN THE INPUT AC POWER
IS NOT CONNECTED.
• CAUTION: (RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK) -
DO NOT REMOVE COVER. NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE,
PLEASE REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
• WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ONLY REPLACE THE FUSE WITH
THE SAME TYPE AND RATING.

Introduction
Have you ever noticed your lights dim or flicker when you turn on
your dishwasher or air-conditioning? This common occurrence is
attributed to an under-voltage of power, also know as a BROWNOUT.
A Brownout is a period of insufficient power-line voltage. It is the most
common power problem, accounting for 80% of all power disturbances.
Effects: A brownout can deprive a computer of the power it needs to
function, causing unwanted damage to your computer, such as frozen
keyboards and hard drive crashes. Such problems will cause you to incur
computer repairs, lost data and downtime.
Solution: A Belkin Line-Interactive Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with
Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR). Typical “Stand-by” UPS units do not
have AVR to increase the output voltage or decrease the output voltage to
your computer. A surge protector can only protect your computer from
over voltages due to irregular power. Belkin Line-Interactive UPS units
protect against surges, spikes, brownouts and blackouts!
Only a Belkin Line-Interactive UPS with AVR can give your computer
clean and consistent power at all times.
Note: There is no guarantee that interference to radio/TV will not
occur in a particular installation. If this UPS causes interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
UPS power off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of following measures:
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
