be powered off for more than few days, please always disconnect the battery
from the system. Reconnect it and turn on the system to recharge the battery
for 1 ~ 2 hours every 3 months for temperature lower than 30
C. Recharge for
1 ~ 2 hours every month for temperature over 30 C. Temperature above 40°C
must be strictly avoided as it could cause termination of battery life and
unexpected result even if the battery is not in work. The UPS battery can
support basically the data preservation and smooth running of the system
during intermittent or few minutes (up to 30 min. depending on loading and
battery condition) power failure.
Battery replacement:
In the preloaded OS for a KS system, there is a built in utility Power
Manager that will interface the UPS battery monitor status with user. When
battery monitor disables the battery charging as designed while the UPS
function of the system is originally enabled, in other words the UPS battery is
found out of order if actually installed, there will be a popup message as the
picture at right asking the user to agree disabling the
UPS function. The system will operate under
deactivated UPS function no matter agreed or not.
However, the monitoring goes on and the popup
message will come back on next system power up boot if not agreed. In any
case, please replace the used up UPS battery at power off if the battery is well
connected there but found inoperable by such messages.
Emergency treatment:
The battery is constructed maintenance free and leakproof. It is well
protected in KS system as long as the ambient temperature remains below
30
C and the ventilation of the KS system remains free. However, should any
accident happen and the sulfuric acid from the battery spills on skin or clothing,
wash immediately with water. If the acid comes in contact with eyes, rinse
eyes with large amount of clean water and see a doctor immediately. A larger
external battery may be connected to give an extended operation. Please check
your dealer about this capability when required.
WARNING:
If there are any signs of over charging or leakage of electrolyte
please contact your dealer immediately
