Receiving the Dell UPS
Inspecting the Equipment
If any equipment has been damaged during shipment, keep the shipping cartons and packing materials for the
carrier or place of purchase and file a claim for shipping damage. If you discover damage after acceptance, file a
claim for concealed damage.
To file a claim for shipping damage or concealed damage: 1) File with the carrier within 15 days of receipt of the
equipment; 2) Send a copy of the damage claim within 15 days to your service representative.
NOTE:
Check the battery recharge date on the shipping carton label. If the date has passed and the batteries were
never recharged, do not use the UPS. Contact your service representative.
