# Backup & Restore

CUBE OS includes a built-in **Backup & Restore** feature that helps you safeguard your system configuration, device data, and automation settings.\
You can create a manual backup at any time or configure scheduled automatic backups, ensuring your environment is always protected.

{% hint style="warning" %}
eWeLink CUBE has five backup slots: four manual and one automatic backup. The earliest backup will be overwritten when the storage is insufficient.

The system will be temporarily frozen during the backup process.

Do not power off or reboot your eWeLink CUBE during backup for backup integrity.
