UPS and Battery Care
For the best preventive maintenance, keep the area around the UPS
clean and dust-free. If the atmosphere is very dusty, clean the outside of
the system with a vacuum cleaner.
For full battery life, keep the UPS at anambient temperature of
25°C (77°F).
Storing the UPS and Batteries
If you store the UPS for a long period, recharge the battery every six
months by plugging the UPS into a power outlet. The UPS charges to
90% in approximately 12 hours. However, it is recommended that the
UPS charge for 24 hours after long storage.
