Connect critical devices to the six battery-backed outlets and non-critical but surge-sensitive devices to the two surge-only outlets. Plug the UPS into a properly grounded AC outlet and switch it on. Use the USB Type-A port to charge mobile devices as needed. Monitor battery status and run periodic self-tests where supported; replace the battery with the APC user-replaceable battery cartridge when capacity decreases.

Recommendations

The APC Back-UPS is intended for indoor use in dry, temperature-controlled environments. For reliable backup time, avoid connecting high-power appliances (heaters, refrigerators) and keep firmware or monitoring software up to date if available. Replace the battery with the manufacturer-specified cartridge to ensure safe operation and maintain warranty coverage.
