Quick Installation

STEP 1: Place the UPS in either a horizontal ("desktop") or vertical ("tower") position.
The UPS housing is designed with sides that slope slightly in order to tilt the LCD screen upward
for easy viewing in either position—horizontal or vertical. As another aid to easy viewing, the LCD
screen can be rotated. To rotate the LCD screen: carefully insert a small tool in the slots on the
sides of the display to pop it out of the UPS housing; rotate the display, and snap it back into
the UPS housing.
CAUTION: To safely balance the UPS when it is placed in a vertical ("tower") position,
make sure the LCD screen is located at the top of the front panel.
STEP 2: Plug the UPS into an outlet.
After plugging the UPS into a wall outlet, push the ON/OFF button for one second to turn the
UPS on (see Basic Operation section).
Note: The UPS will not turn on automatically in the presence of live utility power.
STEP 3: Plug your equipment into the UPS.
Select outlets (see diagram) will provide battery backup and surge protection; plug your
computer, monitor and other critical devices here.* Select outlets (see diagram) will provide
surge protection only; plug your printer and other nonessential devices here.
* Your UPS is designed to support electronic equipment only. You will overload the UPS if the total VA ratings
for all the equipment you connect to the Battery Backup Protected/Surge Protected outlets exceeds the UPS's
Output Capacity. To find your equipment's VA ratings, look on their nameplates. If the equipment is listed in
amps, multiply the number of amps by 120 to determine VA. (Example: 1 amp × 120 = 120 VA). If you are
unsure if you have overloaded the Battery Backup Protected/Surge Protected outlets, run a self-test (see
"MUTE/TEST" Button description).
CAUTION: The UPS must be plugged into a live AC outlet and turned on for 24 hours
after initial installation to fully charge the UPS's internal battery. Your connected
equipment will receive utility-supplied AC power (if present) immediately after the UPS is
plugged in and turned on; however, your connected equipment may not receive full
battery backup in the event of a blackout or severe brownout until the UPS's internal
battery is fully charged.
