The packing materials that your UPS was shipped in, are carefully designed to minimize any shipping damage. In the unlikely case that the UPS needs to be returned to MINUTEMAN, please use the original packing material. Since MINUTEMAN is not responsible for shipping damage incurred when the system is returned, the original packing material is inexpensive insurance. PLEASE SAVE THE PACKING MATERIALS!

WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Hazardous live parts inside this power supply are energized from the battery even when the AC input power is disconnected.

To de-energize the outputs of the UPS:

1.If the UPS is on press the on/off button for 1 second

2.Disconnect the UPS from the AC power outlet

3.To deenergize the UPS completely, disconnect the battery.

This uninterruptible power source contains potentially hazardous voltages. DO NOT attempt to disassemble the unit. This UPS contains no user serviceable parts. Repairs and battery replacement must be performed by AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY.

CAUTION! To reduce the risk of electrical shock in conditions where load

equipment grounding cannot be verified, disconnect the UPS from the AC power

outlet before installing a computer interface cable. Reconnect the power cord

only after all signaling connections are made.

CAUTION! Connect the UPS to a two pole, three wire grounding AC

power outlet. The receptacle must be connected to appropriate branch protection

(circuit breaker or fuse). Connection to any other type of receptacle may result in

a shock hazard and violate local electrical codes

CAUTION! "High Leakage Current". The UPSs must be connected to the appropiate building ground.
