This warranty may vary from country to country; contact your authorized ODYSSEY
®
battery wholesaler or dealer for the applicable warranty.
When Does the Warranty Period Begin?
The Applicable Warranty Period begins from the date of first purchase with original receipt, or, if no receipt is available, from Manufacturer’s
shipping date as stated on the battery.
What Will EnerSys Do?
Batteries determined to meet the conditions of this warranty will be replaced free of charge if, at the sole discretion of Manufacturer,
adjustment is necessary due to defect in material or workmanship.
Batteries replaced under the warranty provisions will be shipped with a yellow replacement warranty sticker and carry only the remainder of
the original Applicable Warranty Period.
What Is Not Covered by This Warranty?
A. The warranty does not cover a Battery reaching its normal end of life which may occur prior to the warranty periods stated above.
Depending on the application a Battery can reach its normal end of life before the end of the Applicable Warranty Period.
A Battery can deliver only a fixed number of usable amp-hours over its lifetime and is considered to have reached its normal end of
life if the application uses up all of these amp-hours, regardless of the time the Battery has been in service. Therefore Manufacturer
reserves the right to deny a warranty claim if it determines the Battery to be at its normal end of life, even if the claim is lodged within
the Applicable Warranty Period.
B. This warranty does not cover used, pre-owned and/or ODYSSEY battery products purchased through unauthorized Internet channels (for
example: auction sites and unauthorized mass e-commerce sellers/resellers).
C. This warranty does not cover a Battery that is damaged or destroyed as a result of one or more of the following:
Willful abuse, misuse, physical damage, neglect or if the top decorative cover has been removed.
Natural forces such as wind, lightning, hail; damage due to fire, collision, explosion, vandalism, theft, penetration or opening of the
Battery case in any manner.
Overcharging, undercharging, charging or installing in reverse polarity, improper maintenance, allowing the Battery to be deeply
discharged via a parasitic load or mishandling of the Battery such as but not limited to using the terminals for lifting or carrying the
Battery. Trickle chargers that do not have a regulated trickle charge voltage between 13.5V and 13.8V (no lower than 13.5V and no
higher than 13.8V) will cause early failure of the Battery. Use of such chargers with the Battery will also void the Battery’s warranty.
For applications where an alternator is present, the alternator must deliver between 14.0V and 14.7V when measured at the
Battery’s terminals. Consult the ODYSSEY battery technical manual or owner’s manual for any necessary temperature
compensation. Alternators that do not have a regulated charge between 14.0V and 14.7V (no lower than 14.0V and no higher than
14.7V) will cause early failure of the Battery. Use of such alternators with the Battery will also void the Battery’s warranty.
Failure to properly install the Battery or lack of metal jacket for high temperature or vibration applications.
Repair or attempted repair of the Battery by anyone other than an authorized Manufacturer’s representative shall void this warranty.
