The output terminals may carry live voltageeven when the UPS is disconnected from an AC source. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, install this UPS in a temperature and humidity controlled,indoor environment, free of conductive contaminants. Ambient temperature must not exceed 40°C(104°F). Do not operate near water or excessive humidity (95% maximum). The system is not intended foroutdoor use. Ensure all power is disconnected before performing installation or service. Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock or burn from high short‐circuit current.
