Observe the following when storing the UPS.
• Store UPS indoors.
• Maximum storage time for the UPS between powered operation cycles is three years. If the UPS
has been stored for a period exceeding 36 months, contact your factory authorized represnetative
of guidance in starting the unit.
• Temperature uctuations should be minimized.
• The optimal storage temperature range is 68 – 77 °F (20 – 25° C).
• A maximum temperature range of 32 – 104 °F (0 – 40 °C) should be observed.
• The optimal relative humidity at the storage location should be between 50 – 60%.
• Humidity must not exceed 90%.
• Avoid locations where UPS may be exposed to corrosive gas.
• Avoid locations with dirt and/or dust.
