3 - Set the battery circuit-breaker QF1 (13) (or set the battery circuit- breakers of the auxiliary cabinets if any) to OFF.

4 - Set the input circuit-breaker Q1 (8) to OFF.

The charger no longer operates to keep the batteries fully charged.

5 - Open the upstream circuit-breakers of the Normal AC source and Bypass AC source to completely power off the UPS.

3.2 Restarting a single UPS

Check that switches Q4S (9) and Q5N (11) are closed. If this is the case, continue with this procedure, otherwise refer to paragraph 4.4 "Return to the Normal position, Single UPS".
