5. Warranty and Limitation of Liability
This Martindale product is warranted to be free from defects in
material and workmanship under normal use and service. The
warranty period is 2 years and begins on the date of receipt by the

been misused, altered, neglected, contaminated, or damaged by
accident or abnormal conditions of operation, handling or storage.
Martindale authorised resellers shall extend this warranty on new
and unused products to end-user customers only, but have no
authority to extend a greater or different warranty on behalf of
Martindale.
Martindale's warranty obligation is limited, at Martindale's option, to

of a defective product which is returned to Martindale within the
warranty period.

particular purpose. Martindale shall not be liable for any special,
indirect, incidental or consequential damages or losses, including

low-voltage MAINS installation.
The specified measurement category means the voltage indicator

specified limits.

2.1 Precautions

This product has been designed with your safety in mind, but
please pay attention to the following warnings and cautions before
use.
Warnings
The voltage indicator must only be used by a skilled and competent
person who is familiar with the relevant regulations, the safety risks
involved and the consequent normal safe working practices.
Before each use the voltage indicator should be examined for
damage, cracks, cuts or scratches to the housing and cable. The
cable has black outer and contrasting inner insulation, to allow
damage to the cable to be easily identified. If there is any doubt the
voltage indicator should not be used.
Make sure the voltage indicator is dry, clean and free from dust,
grease and moisture while in use to avoid the danger from electric
shock due to surface leakage.
