Was wondering how to upgrade the ram without the service panels.

Model Name: Nitro 5 (AN515-54-5692)

Part Number: NH.Q59SM.003

The manual is generic then.

To get there, you must separate the two covers to the ram memory, you can see videos on YouTube of how to carry the process, if you have never done it, it would take you to a technician.

There doesn't seem to be the hatches that you have shown in the above screenshot.

Hey, just ran into this problem today, was about to add some RAM then noticed that the sticker prevents opening the backplate essentially funneling us to an Acer service center. 

Did you go ahead and break the seal? Does it nullify our warranty?

To all of you who want to know the answer to the void warranty question. None of us are Acer employees so we can't give a definite answer. Call or email the Acer support for your region and they will give you the correct answer. Voiding warranties varies by region. If I have correctly answered your question then please click YES

If the opening is total, you will lose the guarantee.If it is partial as mentioned in the previous comments no, although the best answer since the forum should not deal with garnatia issues is to call the technical service of your geographical area.

yes it will void your warranty but if you want to upgrade ram or anything in a warranty you need to do it with authorized acer laptop centers they will do without voiding your warranty.if you do manually or any other laptop shops than you will void your warranty.I just did mine with 16gb(A515-54) in acer service center for free India(bengaluru).
