Limited Warranty
American Power Conversion (APC) warrants its products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship
for a period of two years from the date of purchase, except in India where the period is one year for battery
module(s). Its obligation under this warranty is limited to repairing or replacing, at its own sole option, any
such defective products. To obtain service under warranty you must obtain a Returned Material Authorization
(RMA) number from customer support (see Service in the S
YMMETRA RM OPERATION MANUAL). Products
must be returned with transportation charges prepaid and must be accompanied by a brief description of the
problem encountered and proof of date and place of purchase. This warranty does not apply to equipment
which has been damaged by accident, negligence, or misapplication or has been altered or modified in any way.
This warranty applies only to the original purchaser who must have properly registered the product within 10
days of purchase.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, AMERICAN POWER CONVERSION MAKES NO WARRANTIES,
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Some states do not permit limitation or exclusion of implied warranties;
therefore, the aforesaid limitation(s) or exclusion(s) may not apply to the purchaser.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED ABOVE, IN NO EVENT WILL APC BE LIABLE FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF THIS
PRODUCT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. Specifically, APC is not
liable for any costs, such as lost profits or revenue, loss of equipment, loss of use of equipment, loss of
software, loss of data, costs of substitutes, claims by third parties, or otherwise. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
Life Support Policy
As a general policy, American Power Conversion (APC) does not recommend the use of any of its products in
life support applications where failure or malfunction of the APC product can be reasonably expected to cause
failure of the life support device or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness. APC does not recommend
the use of any of its products in direct patient care. APC will not knowingly sell its products for use in such
applications unless it receives in writing assurances satisfactory to APC that (a) the risks of injury or damage
have been minimized, (b) the customer assumes all such risks, and (c) the liability of American Power
Conversion is adequately protected under the circumstances.
Examples of devices considered to be life support devices are neonatal oxygen analyzers, nerve stimulators
(whether used for anesthesia, pain relief, or other purposes), autotransfusion devices, blood pumps,
defibrillators, arrhythmia detectors and alarms, pacemakers, hemodialysis systems, peritoneal dialysis systems,
neonatal ventilator incubators, ventilators for both adults and infants, anesthesia ventilators, infusion pumps,
and any other device designated as “critical” by the U.S.F.D.A.
Hospital grade wiring devices and leakage current may be ordered as options on many APC UPS systems. APC
does not claim that units with this modification are certified or listed as Hospital Grade by APC or any other
organization. Therefore these units do not meet the requirements for use in direct patient care.
