current. Observe proper precautions. There are no user-serviceable parts inside
the UPS. Do not open the UPS. Do not open batteries. Do not short or bridge the
battery terminals with any object. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries

insulated handles. Battery replacement should be performed only by authorized
service personnel using the same number and type of batteries (sealed lead-acid).

short-circuit current. Contact with any part of a grounded battery
can result in electrical shock. The following precautions should be
observed when working on batteries:
