Storage and Service
Storage
Before storing your UPS, turn it completely OFF: with the UPS ON and receiving utility power, press and hold the “ON/OFF/STANDBY” button for one second (an alarm will beep once briefly after the interval has passed); then, unplug the UPS from the wall outlet. If you store your UPS for an extend- ed period of time, recharge the UPS batteries once every three months: plug the UPS into a wall out- let; allow it to charge for 12 hours; and then unplug it and place it back in storage. Note: after you plug the UPS in, it will automatically begin charging its batteries; however, it will not supply power to its outlets (see Quick Installation section). If you leave your UPS batteries discharged for an extended period of time, they will suffer a permanent loss of capacity.

2.If the problem continues, do not contact or return the UPS to the dealer. Instead, call Tripp Lite at (773)
