3. LED Overload/ replace battery/ UPS fault (red)
This red LED will blink and the alarm sounds 2 beeps every second when the load connected to the "Battery
backup & surge protection" outlets exceeds the nominal capacity of the UPS. The UPS will automatically shut down
after beeping for ten seconds.
The LED will blink and the alarm sounds 3 beeps every 30 seconds when the UPS detects that the battery needs to
be replaced soon. Allow the UPS to recharge the battery for at least 4 hours. If the LED lights again after 4 hours of
