You can rest easy knowing thatTesla’s state-of-the-art Battery is backed by this Battery Limited Warranty, which covers therepair or replacement of any malfunctioning or defective Battery, subject to the limitationsdescribed below. If your Battery requires warranty service, Tesla will repair the unit, or replace it
with a factory reconditioned unit that has an energy capacity at least equal to that of the original
Battery before the failure occurred. To provide you with even more assurance, this Battery
Limited Warranty will also cover damage to your vehicle from a Battery fire even if it is the result
of driver error. (Coverage will not extend to damage that had already been sustained before a
Battery fire occurred, or to any damage if the Battery fire occurred after your vehicle had already been totaled.) Your vehicle’s Battery is covered under this Battery Limited Warranty for a period
of 8 years or for the number of km/miles specified below for your Battery configuration,
whichever comes first:
• 60 kWh - 200,000 km (125,000 miles) • 85 kWh - unlimited km/miles
Despite the breadth of this warranty, damage resulting from intentional actions (including intentionally abusing or destroying your vehicle or ignoring active vehicle warnings), a collision or
accident (excluding from Battery fires as specified above), or the servicing or opening of the
Battery by non-Tesla personnel, is not covered under this Battery Limited Warranty.
In addition, damage resulting from the following activities is not covered under this Battery
Limited Warranty:
• Exposing the vehicle to ambient temperatures above 60°C (140°F) or below -30°C (-22°F) for more than 24 hours at a time;
• Physically damaging the Battery, or intentionally attempting, either by physical means, programming, or other methods, to extend (other than as specified in your ownerdocumentation) or reduce the life of the Battery;
• Exposing the Battery to direct flame (excluding from Battery fires as specified above); or,
• Flooding of the Battery.
The Battery, like all lithium-ion batteries, will experience gradual energy or power loss with time
and use. Loss of Battery energy or power over time or due to or resulting from Battery usage, is
NOT covered under this Battery Limited Warranty. See your owner documentation for important
information on how to maximize the life and capacity of the Battery.
