Further, APC shall not be liable for defects resulting from:

1)unauthorized attempts to repair or modify the Product, 2) incorrect or inadequate electrical voltage or connection, 3) inappropriate on-site operation conditions, 4) Acts of God, 5) exposure to the elements, or 6) theft. In no event shall APC have any liability under this warranty for any Product where the serial number has been altered, defaced, or removed.
