UPS and Battery Care
For the best preventive maintenance, keep the area around the UPS clean and dust‐free.
If the atmosphere is very dusty, clean the outside of the system with a vacuum cleaner.
For full battery life, keep the UPS at an ambient temperature of 25°C (77°F).
NOTE: The batteries in the UPS are rated for a 3–5 year service life. The length of service
life varies, depending on the frequency of usage and ambient temperature. Batteries used
beyond expected service life will often have severely reduced runtimes. Replace batteries at
least every 5 years to keep units running at peak efficiency.
Transporting the UPS
NOTE: The internal UPS batteries MUST be disconnected during transport.
If the UPS requires any type of transportation:
1 Verify that the UPS is unplugged and turned off.
2 Pull the top left corner forward and remove the UPS front bezel (see Figure 18).
