Service
Before returning your Inverter for service, follow these steps: 1.) Review the installation and operation instructions to ensure that the service problem does
not originate from a misreading of the instructions. Also, check that the circuit breaker(s) are not tripped.* 2.) If the problem continues, do not
contact or
return the Inverter to the dealer. Instead, call Tripp Lite at (773) 869-1233. A service technician will ask for the Inverter’s model number, serial number
and purchase date and will attempt to correct the problem over the phone. 3.) If the problem requires service, the technician will issue you a Returned
Material Authorization (RMA) number, which is required for service. Securely pack the Inverter to avoid damage during shipping. Do not use Styrofoam
beads for packaging.** Any damages (direct, indirect, special, incidental or consequential) to the Inverter incurred during shipment to Tripp Lite or an
authorized Tripp Lite service center is not covered under warranty. Inverters 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 Inverter is within the warranty period, enclose a copy of your
sales receipt. Return the Inverter for service using an insured carrier to the address given to you by the Tripp Lite service technician.
* This is a common cause of service inquiries which can be easily remedied by following the resetting instructions in this manual. ** If you require packaging, the technician can arrange to send
you proper packaging.
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.
