♦The unit is designed to be installed inside in heated rooms. Never install the housing in the vicinity of water or in an excessively damp environment!

♦Condensation may occur if the UPS is brought from a cold environment into the room where it is to be installed. The UPS must be absolutely dry prior to start-up. As a result, leave it to acclimatise for at least two hours.

♦Never connect the mains input to the UPS output, and vice versa!

♦Ensure that no fluids or foreign bodies can penetrate the housing!

♦Do not block the air vents of the unit! Keep children away from the unit and ensure that objects are never inserted through the air vents!

♦Do not connect household appliances such as hairdryers to the UPS! Also take care when working with motor loads. It is essential to avoid back-feeding the inverter, e.g. if the load is intermittently operated in regenerative mode.

♦The mains connection should be near the unit and easily accessible to facilitate disconnecting the AC input or pulling out the plug!

♦During operation, do not disconnect the mains connection cable from the UPS or from the socket outlet in the building (shockproof socket), otherwise the protective grounding of the UPS and all the loads connected to it will be cancelled.

Danger! Electric shocks!

Even after the mains voltage has been disconnected, the components within the UPS remain connected to the battery and can thus cause electric shocks. It is therefore imperative to disconnect the battery circuit before carrying out any maintenance or repair work!

If it is necessary to replace the battery or carry out maintenance work, this must be done by or under the supervision of a specialist familiar with batteries and the necessary safety precautions!

Only authorised persons are allowed in the vicinity of the batteries!
