LIMITED CARRY- IN WARRANTY
The following Warranty is conditional that the relevant Microcare product has been installed by an
approved Microcare Installer, the required paperwork has been submitted to Microcare and that the
Client is in receipt of our acknowledgement of this. Our products are innovative pieces of equipment
and incorrect installation has been the overriding cause of failure in the past. No exception to this
condition will be considered.
Microcare warrants its full range of products against defects in workmanship and materials, fair wear and tear
accepted, for a period of three years (Inverters manufactured from the 1
st
July 2020 onwards carry a five-year
warranty) from the date of collection for all equipment and is based on a carry-in basis. Where the installation
of the product makes it impractical to carry-in to our workshops, Microcare reserves the right to charge for
travel time and kilometres travelled to and from the site where the product is installed.
During this warranty period, Microcare will, at its own discretion, repair or replace the defective product free of
charge. This warranty will be considered void if the unit has suffered any physical damage or alteration, either
internally or externally, and does not cover damages arising from improper use such as, but not exclusive to:
• Reverse of battery polarity.
• Inadequate or incorrect connection of the product and/or of its accessories.
• Mechanical shock or deformation.
• Contact with liquid or oxidation by condensation.
• Use in an inappropriate environment (dust, corrosive vapour, humidity, high temperature, biological
infestation)
• Breakage or damage due to lightning, surges, spikes or other electrical events.
• Connection terminals and screws destroyed or other damage such as overheating due to insufficient
tightening of terminals.
• When considering any electronic breakage except due to lightning, reverse polarity, over-voltage, etc.
the state of the internal control circuitry determines the warranty.
This warranty will not apply where the product has been misused, neglected, improperly installed, or repaired
by anyone else than Microcare. In order to qualify for the warranty, the product must not be disassembled or
modified. Repair or replacement are our sole remedies and Microcare shall not be liable for damages, whether
direct, incidental, special, or consequential, even caused by negligence or fault. Microcare owns all parts
removed from repaired products. Microcare uses new or re-conditioned parts made by various manufacturers
in performing warranty repairs and building replacement products. Microcare repairs or replaces a part of a
product; its warranty term is not extended. Removal of serial numbers may void the warranty.
All remedies and the measure for damages are limited to the above.
Microcare shall in no event be liable for
consequential, incidental, contingent or special damages, even if having been advised of the probability of
such damages. Any and all other warranties expressed or implied arising by law, course of dealing, course of
performance, usage of trade or otherwise, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability and
fitness for a particular purpose, are limited in duration to a period of three years (five years for Inverters
manufactured from the 1
st
July 2020 onwards) from the date of purchase.
