8.0Storing the UPS

8.1Storage conditions

When you store the UPS, cover it and keep it upright in a cool, dry loca- tion. Store the UPS with its battery fully-charged. Before storage, allow the UPS to charge for at least 8 hours. Disconnect any accessories and cables connected at the computer interface port, because these may unnecessarily drain the battery charge.

8.2 Extended storage

To achieve optimal run time after extended storage, you should refresh the UPS’s batteries every 6 months in environments where the ambient temperature is –15 to +30°C (+5 to +86°F).

For extended storage in environments where the ambient temperature is +30 to +45°C (+86 to +113°F), you should refresh the UPS’s batteries every 3 months.
