Contacting OutBack

To request warranty service, contact OutBack Technical Support at +1.360.435.6030 or direct at +1.360.618.4363 or support@outbackpower.com. To ensure warranty coverage, this contact must be within the effective warranty period. If service is required, the OutBack Technical Support representative will issue a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number.

Troubleshooting

In the event of a Product failure, the customer will need to work with an OutBack Technical Support representative to perform the necessary troubleshooting. This is a required step before a return can be performed. Troubleshooting requires a qualified technician to be present at the site of the Product, with a quality voltmeter that measures both DC and AC. The OutBack representative will request voltmeter readings, Product error messages, and other information. Many, many problems can be resolved on-site. If the customer is not willing or able to provide these readings (or is not willing or able to visit the site), and the Product is found to have no problems upon return, OutBack may choose to charge additional labor and handling fees up to $180.00 U.S.

Return Material Authorization (RMA)

A request for an RMA number requires all of the following information:

1.Product model and serial number;

2.Proof-of-purchase in the form of a copy of the original Product purchase invoice or receipt confirming the Product model number and serial number;

3.Description of the problem; and

4.Shipping address for the repaired or replacement equipment.

Upon receiving this information, the OutBack representative can issue an RMA number.
