2. Connect the Batteries
Note:
All UPSs ship with the batteries disconnected. In addition, 5000 VA units have the batteries shipped outside the
UPS case so you must install the batteries before connecting them.
If you need to ship the UPS you must disconnect the batteries prior to shipment in order to comply with U.S.
Federal Regulations. Refer to Appendix C: Transporting Your Smart-UPS, page 24, for details.

1. Grasp the top edge of the bottom front cover and tilt it out.

Slide the battery pack into the UPS.
Press the gray connector into the plug at the top of the battery compartment.
