NAPA BATTERIES

EXIDE and EAST PENN (BAT)

Limited Warranty Policy Statement

The Seller Warrants to the original Purchaser that this NAPA Battery, when equal to or exceeding the manufacturer's recommended size and capacity for the vehicle in which it is used, is free of defects in material and workmanship. Selling Warrantor is to complete and present the Limited Warranty Tear-off Form (attached to or enclosed in each battery) to the Purchaser at the time of sale. The Seller is either the NAPA Auto Parts Store or Authorized Distributor who makes the final sale to the end user. Replacement is made only when the battery is determined to be defective due to faulty materials or workmanship. (NOT MERELY DISCHARGED.) The store must perform the appropriate tests with the proper test equipment to determine the true battery condition. In addi­tion, it may be necessary to charge the battery before a determination of the battery condition can be made. When a battery is discharged only, it will become serviceable by bringing it up to full state of charge.

The Warranty Does Not Include:

A.  Improperly tested or untested batteries.

B.  Batteries that are discharged only.

C.  Failure caused by poor maintenance (i.e., low water caused by over charging.)

D.  Broken cases, which include cracked cases, broken posts, pulled out side terminals, etc.

E.   Batteries that are frozen or have been frozen.

F.   Batteries damaged by explosions, fire or collisions.

The replacement should be made with another battery of similar size and capacity. This Warranty is effective for the manufacturer's designated warranty period from the month of purchase as fol­lows:

A FREE REPLACEMENT is made if adjustment is necessary due to defective materials or workman­ship upon return of the battery to seller:

A.  Within 24 months of purchase for NAPA Select batteries and ORBITAL battery part numbers
9934/78 and 9986/75.

B.  Within 18 months of purchase date for NAPA SURE START and NAPA LEGEND batteries, and
within 90 days of purchase date for all other AUTOMOTIVE batteries.

C.  Within 18 months of purchase date for all GROUP 30H and 31 COMMERCIAL batteries, and
within 6 months of purchase date for all other COMMERCIAL batteries.

D.  Within 3 months of purchase date for MARINE & SPECIALTY batteries and within 12 months of
purchase date for MARINE battery part numbers 8301, 8302, 9934DC and 9934HDM.

Special Note:

ANY BATTERY REPLACED DURING THE FREE REPLACEMENT PERIOD MUST HAVE THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE DATE PUNCHED OUT, NOT THE REPLACEMENT DATE. THE FREE REPLACEMENT WAR­RANTY CONTINUES FROM THE ORIGINAL BATTERY PURCHASE DATE. RECEIPT OF THE FREE REPLACEMENT BATTERY DOES NOT EXTEND THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY PERIOD.

The End User's pro-rated fee is based on the price sheet (adjustment schedule) originally used to sell the battery (Sheet 1, 1A or 4A). The monthly fee is then multiplied by the number of months the battery was in service and this is what the Customer will pay for their new battery. The monthly fee figures appear in the adjustment chart on the back of the Suggested Price Sheet.

THE SELLER'S LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO REPLACEMENT OF THE BATTERY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOREGOING. HOWEVER, SELLER WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INSTALLATION COSTS, LOSS OF TIME OR OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR COSTS INCURRED. THIS WAR­RANTY DOES NOT COVER DAMAGE TO THE BATTERY CAUSED BY WILLFUL ABUSE OR NEGLECT, DESTRUCTION BY FIRE, COLLISION, EXPLOSION, FREEZING, THEFT, RECHARGING, OR FAILURE TO PROPERLY MAINTAIN THE BATTERY. ADDITIONALLY, THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER DAMAGE TO BATTERIES THAT ARE OPENED OR TAMPERED WITH IN ANY MANNER, INCLUDING THE USE OF ANY SPECIAL ADDITIVES OR ELECTROLYTE INTRODUCED INTO THE BATTERY. NO IMPLIED WAR­RANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR PURPOSE SHALL BE IN EFFECT FOR LONGER THAN THE MANUFACTURER'S DESIGNATED WARRANTY PERIOD.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state. Use the "Adjustment Table" (found on the back of the appropriate price sheet used to sell the battery) for calculating the Consumer User Pro-Rata cost of the replacement. Use a grease pencil to write the price sheet part number (sheet 1, 1A, 4A) on the side of the battery.
