n  This Uninterruptible Power Source contains potentially hazardous voltages.  Do not at-
tempt to disassemble the unit.  Repairs are performed only by factory trained service per-
sonnel.   The unit contains no user serviceable parts except for a replaceable battery.
n  This Uninterruptible Power Source uses batteries.  The batteries will eventually become too
weak to provide rated autonomous operation.   To obtain battery replacement or repair ser-
vice, please call the Customer Service telephone number on the back cover of this manual
for information on the Service Center nearest you.
The batteries used by this Uninterruptible Power Source are recyclable.  Proper disposal of
the batteries is required.  The batteries contain lead and pose a hazard to the environment
and human health if not disposed of properly.  Please refer to local codes for proper dis-
posal requirements or return the battery to a factory authorized Service Center.
n  Battery replacement should be performed or supervised by personnel familiar with the dan-
ger of batteries and the required precautions.  Keep unauthorized personnel away from bat-
teries.  When replacing batteries, use the same number and type of sealed lead acid batteries
as were originally contained in your UPS.
n  CAUTION - Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.  The batteries may explode.
n  CAUTION - Do not open or mutilate a UPS battery.  They contain an electrolyte which is
toxic and harmful to the skin and eyes.
n  CAUTION - A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current.
When replacing batteries, wrist watches and jewelry such as rings should be removed.  Use
tools with insulated handles.
