WARNING!
Read and understand the battery safety instructions in “Product Safety Information”.
CAUTION!
Make sure all the replacement batteries are of the same type and rating. Failure to do so
could result in improper charging and damage to the batteries.
The Alpha Micro Secure cannot provide backup battery power while the batteries are being replaced. If the line
becomes unqualified while the batteries are being replaced, the Alpha Micro Secure shuts down and no power is
provided to the load.
