Pre-Failure Battery Warranty 
The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty, standard on all UPS units, extends the advantage of a 3-year limited 
warranty by applying it to the battery before it actually fails. The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty ensures that 
the battery is replaced free of charge when a notification that the battery might fail is received from 
power management software. The battery warranty coverage is 3 years for parts. The warranty for the 
first year of ownership includes parts and labor. If battery spares are not available for a particular UPS 
model, the entire UPS, including its battery, is replaced. 
A Pre-Failure Battery warning is given 30 days before a battery failure. The warning is indicated in one or 
both of the following ways: 
•  An LED showing the battery is low
