Issue:
Will opening the case of my Smart-UPS or Back-UPS product void my warranty?
Product Line:
Smart-UPS, Back-UPS
Environment:
All models, All Serial Numbers
Cause:
Customers may want to open their Smart-UPS or Back-UPS products for modification or repair.
Resolution:
User replaceable batteries may be accessed via an access panel. The battery compartment is safely isolated from the inner electronics of the UPS.
In addition, some Smart-UPS may feature user replaceable backplates. These can be safely installed by an end user, but the UPS must be fully de-energized. (Turned off, unplugged from utility power, batteries disconnected.)
For information on battery replacement or optional accessories, please refer to the user's manual for your specific model.
