Limited Battery Warranty
NOTE: Applicable in North America only.
TO SECURE WARRANTY SERVICE
The purchaser must request warranty service from a John Deere dealer authorized to sell John Deere batteries, and
present the battery to the dealer with the top cover plate codes intact.
FREE REPLACEMENT
Any new battery which becomes unserviceable (not merely discharged) due to defects in material or workmanship within
90 days of purchase will be replaced free of charge. Installation costs will be covered by warranty if (1) the unserviceable
battery was installed by a John Deere factory or dealer, (2) failure occurs within 90 days of purchase, and (3) the
replacement battery is installed by a John Deere dealer.
PRO RATA ADJUSTMENT
Any new battery which becomes unserviceable (not merely discharged) due to defects in material or workmanship more
than 90 days after purchase, but before the expiration of the applicable adjustment period, will be replaced upon payment of
the battery's current list price less a pro rata credit for unused months of service. The applicable adjustment period is
determined from the Warranty Code printed at the top of the battery and chart below. Installation costs are not covered by
warranty after 90 days from the date of purchase.
THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER
A. Breakage of the container, cover, or terminals.
B. Depreciation or damage caused by lack of reasonable and necessary maintenance or by improper maintenance.
C. Transportation, mailing, or service call charges for warranty service.
LIMITATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND PURCHASER'S REMEDIES
To the extent permitted by law, neither John Deere nor any company affiliated with it makes any warranties,
representations, or promises as to the quality, performance or freedom from defect of the products covered by this warranty.
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TO THE EXTENT
APPLICABLE, SHALL BE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE APPLICABLE ADJUSTMENT PERIOD SET FORTH HERE.
THE PURCHASER'S ONLY REMEDIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE BREACH OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY
WARRANTY ON JOHN DEERE BATTERIES ARE THOSE SET FORTH HERE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEALER, JOHN
DEERE OR ANY COMPANY AFFILIATED WITH JOHN DEERE BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES. (Note: Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation
of incidental or consequential damages. So these limitations and exclusions may not apply to you.) This warranty gives you
specific legal rights, and you may also have some rights which vary from state to state.
NO DEALER WARRANTY
The selling dealer makes no warranty of it's own and the dealer has no authority to make any representation or promise on
behalf of John Deere, or to modify the terms or limitations of this warranty in any way.
PRO RATA MONTHS OF ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: If your battery is not labeled with a warranty code, it is a warranty code "B".
