Service
Your Tripp Lite product is covered by the warranty described in this manual. A variety of Extended Warranty and On-Site Service Programs are also
available from Tripp Lite. For more information on service, visit www.tripplite.com/support. Before returning your product for service, follow these
steps:
1. Review the installation and operation procedures in this manual to insure that the service problem does not originate from a misreading of the
instructions.
2. If the problem continues, do not contact or return the product to the dealer. Instead, visit www.tripplite.com/support.
3. If the problem requires service, visit www.tripplite.com/support and click the Product Returns link. From here you can request a Returned Material
Authorization (RMA) number, which is required for service. This simple on-line form will ask for your unit's model and serial numbers, along with
other general purchaser information. The RMA number, along with shipping instructions will be emailed to you. Any damages (direct, indirect,
special or consequential) to the product incurred during shipment to Tripp Lite or an authorized Tripp Lite service center is not covered under
warranty. Products shipped to Tripp Lite or an authorized Tripp Lite service center must have transportation charges prepaid. Mark the RMA number
on the outside of the package. If the product is within its warranty period, enclose a copy of your sales receipt. Return the product for service using an
insured carrier to the address given to you when you request the RMA.

Maintenance

Your Inverter requires no maintenance and contains no user-serviceable or replaceable parts, but should be kept dry at all times. Periodically check, clean
and tighten all cable connections, as necessary, both at the unit and at the battery.
