Liability Neither BatteryDAQ nor any of its employees shall be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from the failure of the battery monitoring system due to the failure of a proprietary part of the battery monitoring system, even if BatteryDAQ had been advised in advance except for as provided by law. Specification BatteryDAQ makes every effort to ensure that the specifications and details in this manual are accurate and complete. BatteryDAQ reserves the right to alter or improve the specification, design or manufacturing process at any time, without notice. Warranty BatteryDAQ warrants this system free from defects in material and workmanship in operation for one year from the date of commissioning or sale by BatteryDAQ or its authorized dealer.

2. Never work on any system that threatens life or injury through hazardous voltages except when applying absolute safety precautions. 3. Never work alone. Always ensure that you work with a properly trained colleague. 4. BatteryDAQ recommends that when performing any work concerning batteries, the safety procedures and safe working practices as described in the appropriate battery manufacturers documentation should be followed at all times. 5. Never make unauthorized changes or modifications to equipment. This may create unsafe, or even hazardous, situations. 6. Where the battery documentation recommends that links are removed for safe working, it is important to totally remove any unit which is connected across any link to be broken prior to separation and subsequent removal of the link. Failure to do so will result in the string not being totally isolated. 7. After replacing/servicing of the battery, any removed links must be fitted and reconnected before the modules are reconnected. Tools and Equipment 1. Ensure all equipment and tools are proper, safe and in good working order.

Limitation of Warranty This warranty does not apply to defects arising from system modification performed without BatteryDAQ’s written approval, or misuse of the system or any part of the system. The warranty excludes defects or malfunctions resulting from failure by the customer, or his designated personnel, to maintain and upkeep the batteries to which the system is fitted.

2. Ensure electrical tools have been tested for proper insulation and grounding where appropriate. 3. Observe all CAUTION, WARNINGS and DANGER notices on equipment, tools, and building, whether internally or externally displayed. Service and Support

Safety Notices The following safety precautions should be observed before any work is performed on the system containing the BatteryDAQ product. 2
