ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THESE

incidental or consequential damages or limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations or

WHAT IS COVERED?
Nissan* Warrants your Genuine Nissan Replacement
Battery as described below except as stated under "What
is not covered?"
This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.
HOW LONG IS THE WARRANTY AND WHAT WILL
NISSAN DO
Nissan will replace your battery without charge if it becomes
unserviceable within the ﬁ rst 24 months of service.
If the battery becomes unserviceable after 24 months of
use, Nissan will provide a replacement battery at a reduced
price, charging only for the portion of the life of the battery
actually used. This is called a "pro-rata adjustment". Nissan
will pay for all labor charges in replacing the battery if it was
originally installed by an authorized Nissan dealer.
This warranty and the "pro-rata adjustment" end 84 months
after the date of the battery's purchase or installation,
whichever is earlier.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This warranty does not cover:
1. Damage or failure resulting from: • Accident, theft, ﬁ re or freezing.
• Misuse of the battery or vehicle in which it is installed, including the use in applications for
which the battery was not designed. Proper use
is described in the vehicles Owner's Manual.
• Improper installation or battery charging.
• Vehicle electrical malfunctions not covered by your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.• Modiﬁ cation or improper repair of the vehicle or a part of the vehicle.
• Use of parts not equivalent in quality or design to parts supplied by Nissan.
• Environmental conditions, including, but not limited to ﬂ ood, and salt spray or salt water.
2. Normal maintenance service and recharging of discharged batteries.
3. Batteries in service more that 84 months.
4. Salvage Title. This warranty does not cover damage, failure, or corrosion to any Genuine Nissan battery
installed in the vehicle, if the vehicle is issued a "salvage
" or similar title under any state's law, and this warranty
is rendered void for any battery installed in a vehicle
prior to the vehicle being issued a "salvage" or similar
title unless state law expressly states otherwise. (This
exclusion does not extend to a new Genuine Nissan
battery installed in the vehicle after the issuance of a
"salvage" or similar title) .
WHAT YOU MUST DO
In order to obtain warranty service, you must deliver the war-
ranted battery or the vehicle in which the battery is installed
to an authorized Nissan dealer in the U.S. or Canada at your
expense, with proof of purchase (parts invoice or service
repair order from an authorized Inﬁ niti dealer) . The names
and addresses of authorized Nissan dealers are listed in
telephone directories or www.NissanUSA.com
If the "pro-rata adjustment" applies, you must pay for the
portion of the 84 month warrantable life that you actually
used. The amount you pay is computed in two steps.
First, the customer pay percentage is determined from
the chart shown below based upon the months of actual
battery service. Months Customer Pay
In Service Percentage
0-24 0%
25-32 25%
33-50 50%
51-84 75%
Second, the current suggested retail price of the new battery
is multiplied by the customer pay percentage. For example,
should the battery fail after 40 months of service you would
pay 50% of the suggested retail price of the new battery.
You must also pay for the labor charge to remove and
replace the battery if it was not originally installed in your
vehicle by an authortized Nissan Dealer.
