running.
Wait until the system shuts down (max. five minutes).
2.
Turn system on again and repeat step 1 until the system shuts down automatically, emit-
ting a long beep followed by short beeps.
The battery is now empty.
3.
To recharge, plug in the system and turn on the mains power.
Allow the system to charge for two hours.
NOTE: It is possible to use the Monitor Cart while the UPS is charging, however if mains power is
