What Your Battery Warranty Covers

Your warranty covers manufacturing or material defects that cause the battery to fail during the warranty period.

• Batteries are tested using approved diagnostic equipment
• Warranty starts from the date of purchase
• Replacement batteries issued under warranty carry only the remaining balance of the original warranty
• For batteries with a warranty exceeding one year, our policy allows one discretionary exchange within the first six months from purchase if necessary — even if the battery is not deemed faulty
• A replacement under warranty does not extend the original warranty period
• Your warranty is in addition to your statutory consumer rights

What the Warranty Does Not Cover

Batteries may fail for reasons unrelated to a manufacturing fault. The warranty does not cover:

• Accidental damage
• Electrical or mechanical issues with the vehicle
• Improper installation (where fitted by someone other than Motabitz)
• Use in a vehicle other than the one originally supplied for
• Vehicles used infrequently (under 2,500 miles per year)
• General wear and tear

Common Battery Issues Not Covered

These are not considered manufacturing faults:

• Sulphation – From being left discharged for long periods
• Deep cycling – Caused by repeated deep discharge/recharge cycles
• Overcharging – Due to faulty alternators or charging systems
• Incorrect specification – Using a battery that’s too small or underpowered for your vehicle
• Physical damage – From improper handling, transport, or fitment

Tips to Maximise Battery Life

• Drive regularly to maintain charge levels
• Switch off lights/accessories when the engine is off
• Charge the battery during long periods of storage
• Have your vehicle’s charging system checked regularly
