NOTE: The following Limited Warranty applies ONLY to Exide-branded batteries
purchased before 10/01/12. If you purchased an Exide battery on or after
10/1/2012, you may have a different Limited Warranty. Such other Limited
Warranty can be found on the Exide website.
EXIDE® PRO-RATA LIMITED WARRANTY
Exide Technologies takes great pride in the batteries it manufactures and provides a
limited warranty program for many of its batteries. If you purchased an Exide-branded
battery before 10/1/2012, and this PRO-RATA Limited Warranty otherwise applies,
subject to the terms and conditions herein, Exide warrants to the original purchaser that
the battery will be free from defects in material and workmanship for the Limited
Warranty Period applicable to such battery. If your battery exhibits a defect in material or
workmanship, and is covered by this PRO-RATA Limited Warranty, Exide will reimburse
you for any replacement battery you purchase (whether Exide-branded or otherwise) in
an amount equal to a percentage of the original purchase price of the defective battery
(not including Core Charges, taxes and any other fees).* No reimbursement will be
provided unless original proof of the purchase, replacement battery proof of purchase
and a battery test receipt are provided.**
How do you tell if a battery is eligible for this PRO-RATA Limited Warranty?
Only certain Exide-branded batteries purchased prior to 10/1/12 are eligible for this
warranty. Locate the battery part number on the battery or battery label. Then, look up
the battery part number on the attached Pro-Rata Limited Warranty Schedule. Only
Exide-branded batteries with the part numbers listed in the Pro-Rata Schedule are eligible
for this PRO-RATA Limited Warranty.
What Limited Warranty Period applies to the battery?
The part number included on the label on the front of every Exide-branded battery
covered by this PRO-RATA Limited Warranty includes an indication of the Limited
Warranty Period (in months). For example, the label for Part #24-84N below
indicates a battery with a Limited Warranty Period of 84 months. The Limited
Warranty Period can also be determined from the Pro-Rata Limited Warranty
Schedule, as explained below.

What percentage of the original purchase price will be reimbursed by Exide?
The Limited Warranty Period is made up of two different periods: a full reimbursement
period and a pro rata reimbursement period. The length of the two periods can be
determined from the attached Pro-Rata Limited Warranty Schedule under the column
titled “Warranty (months) Full/Pro-Rata.” The number which comes first represents the
number of months in the full reimbursement period and the second number represents
the number of months for the total Limited Warranty Period. The pro-rata reimbursement
period is determined by subtracting the first number from the second. So, for a battery
with a total Limited Warranty Period of 84 total months, and a 30-month full
reimbursement period, the full reimbursement period covers months 1 through 30 and a
pro-rata reimbursement period covers months 31 through 84. To determine how long the
battery has been in service, and whether it is eligible for full reimbursement or pro rata
reimbursement hereunder look at your original battery purchase receipt or if the receipt is
not available, look at the battery dater punch-out on the label.**
During the full reimbursement period, for any defective battery covered hereunder, Exide
will provide reimbursement for any replacement battery (whether Exide-branded or not)
in an amount equal to 100% of the original purchase price of the defective battery (not
including Core Charges, taxes and any other fees).
The pro-rata reimbursement period applies after the full reimbursement period expires,
and continues until the end of the entire Limited Warranty Period. To calculate the
amount of the reimbursement during the pro-rata reimbursement period, use the
following procedure:
1.
Look up the battery part number on the attached Pro-Rata Limited Warranty
Schedule and identify the amount listed in the “Warranty Cost Per Month”
3
exide.com
column. Note: The “Warranty Cost Per Month” has been determined by dividing
the “Suggested Retail Price” (not the actual selling price) by the number of
months in the total Limited Warranty Period.
2.
Calculate Exide’s reimbursement amount as follows:
- First, multiply the Warranty Cost Per Month by the number of months the
battery was in service. This is the “Customer’s Responsibility.” Months in service
are determined from the original receipt or other proof of purchase, which should
match the battery punch-out dater.
- Then, subtract the Customer’s Responsibility from the original purchase price.
This represents Exide’s reimbursement responsibility.
EXAMPLE:
The punch-out label below is for an Exide NASCAR Select 24-84N battery which was
purchased in August 2012. The label and Pro-Rata Limited Warranty Schedule indicate a
total Limited Warranty Period of 84 months (i.e. until August 2019). The Schedule also
shows a 30 month full reimbursement period and a Suggested Retail Price of $130.99. For
this example, assume the battery was purchased at its Suggested Retail Price, and was
returned in August 2015 (being in service for 36 months).
Since the 30 month full reimbursement period has expired, the pro-rata reimbursement is
calculated as follows:
$1.56 Warranty Cost Per Month (per the Schedule)
x 36 months in service
= $56.16 (Customer’s Responsibility)
4
exide.com
$130.99 original purchase price
- $56.16 Customer’s Responsibility
= $74.83 (Exide’s Reimbursement)
What procedures should you follow if you have a defective battery?
If your battery appears defective, please follow the following procedures:
1. Determine if the battery is not defective, but is simply discharged and needs a
boost. Have the battery tested first to determine the cause of failure and retain
the receipt of the test results. If the battery is simply in need of a boost, have it re-
charged and re-tested. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER MERELY
DISCHARGED BATTERIES.
2. If the battery is still not working properly, determine if the battery is still within
the total Limited Warranty Period by referring to the battery’s front label (or the
Pro-Rata Limited Warranty Schedule), and checking the date on your proof of
purchase. The applicable Limited Warranty Period is calculated from the date of
sale to the original purchaser.
3. If the battery is still under warranty, return the battery to an authorized Exide
retailer within the Limited Warranty Period. If an authorized retailer is not in your
area, you can submit a claim directly through exide.com or contact Exide
customer support at 800-346-2172.***
4. To obtain reimbursement, provide the authorized Exide retailer or Exide (through
exide.com) with your proof of purchase for both the defective battery and the
replacement battery and a battery test receipt. Allow up to 6 weeks to receive
reimbursement.
5. See “Warranty FAQs” for answers to common questions about this Limited
Warranty.
This Limited Warranty is voided for batteries damaged due to abuse or neglect, including
but not limited to the following:
• Battery hold-downs not used properly or not torqued per the Battery Council
International Service Manual recommendations (Industry Standards), leading to
excessive battery vibration or battery damage due to over-torque
• Low electrolyte levels for batteries which require maintenance
5
exide.com
• Accelerated corrosion/low electrolyte level due to exposure to excessive
temperatures
• Batteries that have been refilled with any substance besides distilled water that
may have contaminated the battery
• Batteries not maintained at a sufficient state of charge during periods of both in-
vehicle and out of vehicle storage
• Batteries that have been subjected to excessive out of vehicle charging or to an
uncontrolled in-vehicle charging system (i.e. faulty alternator)
• Batteries that have been physically damaged including a cracked, punctured, or
deformed battery case or cover; broken or severely damaged battery terminals
• Batteries with damaged terminals due to loose, inadequate or high resistance
connections
• Batteries with loose or missing vents (non-sealed designs)
• Batteries that have been installed and operated in reverse in vehicle, leading to
reverse battery polarity
• Improper battery box or insufficient protection from the elements (i.e. rain, snow,
or ice)
• Batteries that have been operated in an application that it was not designed
and/or marketed to support Example: Standard SLI batteries that are used in
cycling applications.
Additional Terms and Conditions:
• This Limited Warranty only applies to batteries purchased from authorized Exide
retailers. However, some authorized retailers purchase batteries in lieu of
warranty and therefore warranty claims would need to be handled directly
through the retailer from which you purchased the battery.
• Exide is not responsible for and will not be bound by any additional warranties
provided by retailers and does not authorize any other person to make or assume
any obligation or liability in connection with any of its batteries.
• This Limited Warranty is not transferable and are only applicable for the original
6
exide.com
purchaser at retail.
NOTE: This Limited Warranty limits Exide's responsibility to providing reimbursement as
provided herein, and in no event shall Exide be liable for monetary damages or other
losses arising from any battery defect or failure, including, but not limited to, for any loss
of use, time or for any inconvenience or for any incidental or consequential damages. ALL
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE LENGTH OF THE
APPLICABLE LIMITED WARRANTY. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an
implied warranty lasts and/or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights
which vary from state to state.
* If a Core Charge credit was included in the original purchase price you paid, you will
need to return the battery to the original retailer to receive the amount of this credit.
** Proof of purchase includes a receipt, or a credit card or bank statement.
*** Other information, such as battery test results, pictures or a battery label, may also be
requested at the time of making your claim.
