outlet is protected by a fuse or circuit breaker and does not service equipment with large electrical
demands (e.g. refrigerator, copier, etc…). Avoid using extension cords. If used, the extension
cord must be rated for 15 amps.

correct this, turn the UPS off and unplug at least one piece of equipment from the battery power
supplied outlets. Wait 10 seconds. Make sure the circuit breaker is depressed and then turn the
UPS on.
8. Your UPS is equipped with an auto-charge feature. When the UPS is plugged into an AC outlet,
the battery will automatically recharge.
9. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all times.
10. To store your UPS for an extended period, cover it and store with the battery fully charged.
Recharge the battery every three months to insure battery life.
