What does this warranty not cover? This Limited Warranty does not cover normal wear and tear of the
product or costs associated with replacing consumable items such as air filters, fuses, arrestors, etc. A shorter than
normal life during the Warranty Period caused by excessive use or incorrect use is not considered a Defect. Please
consult your Owner’s Guide to determine the proper use of the product.
This warranty does not apply to and Xantrex will not be responsible for any damage to the product:
a) if it has not been used in accordance with the Owner’s Guide supplied with the product, if it has been damaged
during shipping, mishandled, neglected, improperly installed, physically damaged or altered (either internally or
externally) or damaged from improper use or use in an unsuitable environment;
b) if it has been subjected to fire, water, generalized corrosion, biological infestations, or input voltage that creates
operating conditions beyond the maximum or minimum limits listed in the Xantrex product specifications
including high input voltage from generators and lightning strikes;
c) if repairs have been done to it other than by Xantrex or an Authorized Service Center;
d) if it is used as a component part of a product expressly warranted by another manufacturer; and
e) if its original identification (trade-mark, serial number) markings have been defaced, altered, or removed.
Exclusions
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE WARRANTY PROVIDED BY XANTREX IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR
XANTREX PRODUCT AND IS, WHERE PERMITTED BY LAW, IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS,
GUARANTEES, REPRESENTATIONS, OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE IN
CONNECTION WITH THE PRODUCT, HOWEVER ARISING (WHETHER BY CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, PRINCIPLES OF
MANUFACTURER'S LIABILITY, OPERATION OF LAW, CONDUCT, STATEMENT OR OTHERWISE) INCLUDING WITHOUT
RESTRICTION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE TO THE EXTENT
REQUIRED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO APPLY TO THE PRODUCT SHALL, WHERE PERMITTED BY LAW, BE LIMITED IN
DURATION TO THE PERIOD STIPULATED UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.
IN NO EVENT WILL XANTREX BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
LOSSES, COSTS OR EXPENSES HOWEVER ARISING WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT INCLUDING, WITHOUT RESTRICTION,
ANY ECONOMIC LOSSES OF ANY KIND, ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, OR ANY DAMAGE OR INJURY ARISING FROM

Limitations on Exclusions
This Limited Warranty does not affect your rights as prescribed by law and as established in the Law on Warranties
for Consumer Goods (Spain) or the German Civil Code (“BGB”). In Germany, the legal provisions regarding
suspension or expiration (“Ablaufhemmung”), suspension (“Hemmung”) and recommencement of limitation periods
remains unaffected.
Some countries do not allow limitations or exclusions on implied warranties or on the duration of an implied warranty
or on the limitation or exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation(s) or exclusion(s)
may not apply to you.
For example, in Germany, the Exclusion above shall not apply in the case of mandatory liability, i.e. under the
German Product Liability Act (“Produkthaftungsgesetz”) or in the case of intent, gross negligence, and injury of life,
body or health, or breach of a condition which goes to the root of the contract (“wesentliche Vertragspflichten”).
However, claims for damages arising from a breach of a condition which goes to the root of the contract shall be
limited to the foreseeable damage which is intrinsic to the contract, unless caused by intent or gross negligence or
based on liability for injury of life, body or health. The Exclusion above in Germany also does not imply a change in
the burden of proof to your detriment.
