IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual contains important instructions for models

PowerWalker VI 750/1000/1500/2000 PSW that should be followed during installation and

maintenance of the UPS and batteries.

• This product is specially designed for PCs and it is not recommended for use in any life-

supporting system and other specific important equipment.

• This equipment can be operated by any individual with no previous training.

• Do not plug household appliances such as hair dryers to UPS receptacles.

• This unit intended for installation in a controlled environment (temperature controlled,

indoor area free of conductive contaminants). Avoid installing the UPS in locations where

there is standing or running water, or excessive humidity.

• Risk of electric shock, do not remove cover. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer

servicing to qualified service personnel.

• The utility power outlet shall be near the equipment and easily accessible. To isolate UPS

from AC input, remove the plug from the utility power outlet.

• If UPS is to be stored for a long time, it is recommended to recharge the batteries (by

connecting the utility power to UPS, switch “ON”), once a month for 24 hours to avoid a

full battery discharge.

• Please do not use the UPS in excess of the rated load capacity.

• The UPS contains one/two large-capacity batteries. So the shell shall not be opened,

otherwise such dangers as electric shock will be caused. If any internal overhaul or

replacement of the battery is required, please contact the distributor.

• The internal short circuiting of the UPS will lead to dangers such as electric shock or fire,

therefore, no water containers (such as a water glass) shall be placed on the top of the

UPS so as to avoid such dangers as electric shock.

• Do not dispose of battery or batteries in a fire. The battery may explode.

• Do not open or mutilate the battery or batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the

skin and eyes. It may be toxic.

• Icon Φ on the rating label stands for phase symbol.

• A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. The

following precautions should be observed when working on batteries :

• Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects from the hand.

• Use tools with insulated handles.

• Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of

batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from

EN

batteries.

• When replacing batteries, replace with the same type and number of the sealed lead-acid

batteries.

• The maximum ambient temperature rating is 40°C.

• This pluggable type A equipment with battery already installed by the supplier is

operator installable and may be operated by laymen.

• During the installation of this equipment it should be assured that the sum of the leakage

currents of the UPS and the connected loads does not exceed 3.5mA.

• Attention, hazardous through electric shock. Also with disconnection of this unit from

the mains, hazardous voltage still may be accessible through supply from battery. The

battery supply should be therefore disconnected in the plus and minus pole of the

battery when maintenance or service work inside the UPS is necessary.

• The mains socket outlet that supplies the UPS shall be installed near the UPS and shall be

easily accessible.

• In case smoke is found coming out from the device, please cut off the power supply

quickly and contact the distributor.

• Do not keep or use this product in any of the following environments:

o Any area with combustible gas, corrosive substance or heavy dust.

o Any area with extraordinarily high or low temperature (above 40˚C or below

0˚C) and humidity of more than 90%.

o Any area exposed to direct sunshine or near any heating apparatus.

o Any area with serious vibrations.

o Outdoor.

• In the event that there is fire occurring in the vicinity, please use dry-power extinguishers.

The use of liquid extinguishers may give rise to the danger of electric shock.

This product complies with the safety and environmental regulations in EU.

If the time arises to throw away your product, please recycle all the components possible. Batteries

and rechargeable batteries are not to be disposed in your domestic waste! Please recycle them at

your local recycling point. Together we can help to protect the environment.

4. Installation and Initial Startup

Before installation, please inspect the unit. Be sure that nothing is damaged.

I: Placement & Storage Conditions

Install the UPS in a protected area that is free of excessive dust and has adequate air flow. Please

place the UPS away from other units at least 20 cm to avoid interference. Do NOT operate the

UPS where the temperature exceeds 0-40° C and the humidity is over 0-90 % RH.

II: Connect to Utility and Charge

Plug in the AC input cord to the wall outlet. For the best results, we suggest charging the battery

at least 4 hours before initial use. The unit charges its battery while connecting to the utility.

III: Connect the Loads

Plug in the loads to output receptacles on the rear panel of the UPS. Simply turn on the power

switch of UPS unit, and devices connected to the UPS will be protected by UPS unit.

Do not attach a power strip or surge suppressor to the UPS.

Connect a single modem or phone line into surge-protected “IN” outlet on the back panel of the

UPS unit. Connect from “OUT” outlet to the computer with another phone line cable.

V: Connect USB Cable

To monitor the UPS status, such as unattended UPS shutdown and start-up, by using bundled

software, please connect the UPS and PC with USB cable included.
