A、 SURGE-ONLY PROTECTED OUTLETS
Equipment such as a printer, fax machine, scanner, or a desk lamp can be plugged into these outlets. These outlets do not provide power during a power outage. These outlets are always on (when AC power is available) & are not controlled by the front panel switch.
B、 BATTERY BACK UP OUTLETS
Only data sensitive equipment such as a computer, monitor and external drive should be plugged into these outlets. Battery power is automatically provided in case of a power outage. Power (AC or battery) is not supplied to these outlets when the UPS is switched off. (Do not plug surge protectors or power strips into the battery back up outlets).
C、 PHONE/FAX/ MODEM PROTECTION
The phone/fax/modem lines are surge protected and provide complete safety for line connection.
D、 INTERFACE PORTS
The UPS provides a USB port for you use with your computer.
E、 AC INPUT BREAKER (CIRCUIT BREAKER)
The circuit breaker button will be triggered if an overload condition forces the UPS to disconnect itself from utility power. If the button sticks out, disconnect nonessential equipment and depress breaker.

The Site Wiring Fault LED will illuminate when one of the following conditions exist:
1.Open or

INSTALLATION
Note!
Before installation, please inspect the UPS Upon receipt. Make sure that the UPS is not damaged.
Connect to AC Utility Power
Connect the AC inlet to utility power via the power cord. Check whether the Site Wiring Fault indicator is lit or not. If so, please check the utility wiring.
Charging the Battery
For best results, charge the battery for 8 hours prior to initial use.
The UPS charges its battery whenever it is connected to the utility power.
Plug in Power Devices
Plug your devices into the AC outlets on the top of the UPS. To use the UPS as a master on/off switch, make sure all of the loads are switched on.
Caution: Never connect a laser printer or scanner to the backup outlets of UPS with other computer equipment. A laser printer or scanner draws significantly more power when in use than when idle. This may overload the UPS.
