WHAT IS COVERED?
Nissan1warrants your Genuine Nissan Replacement
Battery as described below except as stated under
What is not covered?
This warranty covers defects in materials and workman-
ship.
HOW LONG IS THE WARRANTY AND
WHAT WILL NISSAN DO
If your battery becomes unserviceable within the first 24
months of service Nissan will replace your battery, in-
cluding labor, without charge, providing the battery was
originally installed in your vehicle by an authorized
Nissan dealer.
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. You will be responsible for all labor
charges for the replacement of the battery.
This warranty and the pro-rata adjustmentend 84
months after the date of the battery’s purchase or
installation, whichever is earlier. However, the warranty
on a Genuine Nissan replacement battery installed dur-
ing the Nissan New Vehicle Limited Warranty will extend
through, and will not end before, the end of that original
warranty.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This warranty does not cover:
1. Damage or failure resulting from:
Accident, theft, fire 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.
Modification 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 flood, and salt spray or salt water.
2. Normal maintenance service and recharging of dis- charged batteries.
3. Batteries in service more than 84 months.
4. Salvage Title. This warranty does not cover dam- age, 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 salvageor 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
sal-
vage or similar title) .
WHAT YOU MUST DO
In order to obtain warranty service, you must deliver the
warranted 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
Nissan dealer) . The names and addresses of authorized
Nissan dealers are listed in telephone directories or
www.NissanUSA.com
If thepro-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
In ServiceCustomer Pay 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.

RECOMMENDATION FOR
MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND
REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR YOUR
VEHICLE’S EMISSION SYSTEM
To assure best results and to maintain the original
quality built into the emission control systems, it is
recommended that genuine Nissan parts be used when
servicing or repairing the systems. THE WARRANTY
OBLIGATIONS ARE NOT DEPENDENT UPON THE
USE OF ANY PARTICULAR BRAND OF REPLACE-
MENT PARTS AND THE OWNER MAY ELECT TO
USE EQUIVALENT NON-GENUINE NISSAN PARTS
FOR REPLACEMENT PURPOSES.
The use of replacement parts which are not equivalent
to genuine Nissan parts may reduce the effectiveness of
the emission control system.
Therefore, if it becomes necessary to use other than
genuine Nissan parts, the owner should assure himself
that such parts are warranted by their manufacturer to
be equivalent in quality to genuine Nissan parts.
MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF
THE EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES AND SYS-
TEMS MAY BE PERFORMED BY ANY AUTOMO-
TIVE REPAIR ESTABLISHMENT OR INDIVIDUAL
USING ANY EQUIVALENT REPLACEMENT PART.
HOWEVER, UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY
LAW, WARRANTY SERVICE MUST BE PER-
FORMED BY AN AUTHORIZED NISSAN DEALER.
The emission standards may be satisfied by having the
vehicle inspected periodically and by following the re-
quirements outlined in your OWNER’S MANUAL and
your NISSAN SERVICE MAINTENANCE GUIDE.
