Note: Only UPS models equipped with a "MUTE/TEST" switch allow you to "cold start" them and use
them as stand-alone power sources when utility power is not present. To "cold start" your UPS, first
turn your UPS ON. Then, move the MUTE/TEST switch to the left, hold momentarily and release when
the " " indicator light begins to flash.

alert you to immediately shut down connected equipment.
Available on
*The UPS alarm consists of a series of short beeps followed by a brief pause. The alarm is activated
select models
when the UPS switches to battery during a blackout or brownout.
Test your UPS's battery charge**
Leave your connected equipment ON. With your UPS plugged in
and turned ON, move this switch to the left; hold it there for 2
seconds and release it. The UPS will momentarily switch to
battery to test its charge. If the UPS alarm sounds or the properly-
sized load is not supported, let your UPS charge its batteries for
12 hours and repeat the test. If alarm still sounds, contact Tripp
Lite for service. CAUTION: Do not unplug your UPS to test its
batteries. This will remove safe electrical grounding and may
introduce a damaging surge into your network connections.
**If your model is not equipped with this switch, you can still test your UPS batteries. First plug your
UPS into a grounded surge suppressor (which will maintain the ground connection), then turn the surge
suppressor's power switch OFF.
