PELICAN 1 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
Pelican Products, Inc. (“Pelican”) guarantees its Remote Area Lighting Systems (RALS) against defects
in materials and workmanship under normal use, service, and maintenance for one year from the date of
purchase. This warranty applies only to the original purchaser and is not transferable.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (A) THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; (B) ALL OTHER IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND ANY
LIABILITY NOT BASED UPON CONTRACT ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED AND EXCLUDED; AND (C) IN NO
EVENT SHALL PELICAN BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER A CLAIM FOR SUCH DAMAGES IS
BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE, nor shall Pelican’s liability to the
purchaser for damages exceed the purchase price of the product in respect of which damages are claimed.
With valid dated proof of purchase, Pelican will either repair or replace any defective product, at our sole option.
Certain products are available for a limited time only. If a claim is made involving one of these products, Pelican
reserves the right to replace a broken or defective product with a standard Pelican product of comparable
size and quality if no comparable limited edition product is available at the time of a claim. TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, THIS SHALL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF THE PURCHASER. Any
repaired or replacement product is covered only for the unexpired portion of the warranty on the original product
purchased.
To make a warranty claim, the purchaser must complete the warranty claim form at https://www.pelican.com/
us/en/support/warranty/. Any warranty claims shall be made by the purchaser as soon as practicable and in no
event more than one year from the date of purchase. The purchaser must provide valid dated proof of purchase
and obtain a return authorization number from Pelican Customer Service prior to returning any product, and
is responsible for paying for all warranty freight costs. If Pelican determines that any returned product is not
defective, within the terms of this warranty, the purchaser shall pay Pelican all costs of handling, return freight
and repairs at Pelican’s prevailing rates.
All warranty claims of any nature are barred if the product has been altered or in any way physically changed, or
subjected to abuse, misuse, negligence or accident.
Some states and countries do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specic legal rights, and you may have other rights which vary from state to state and
country to country.
In Australia: The benets provided to you under this warranty are in addition to your rights and remedies as a
consumer under the Australian Consumer Law as contained in the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)
(“the Act”). Nothing in this warranty limits the rights or obligations of a party under the Act in relation to the
supply to consumers of goods which cannot be limited, modied or excluded. If applicable, our goods come
with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Act. Consumers are entitled to a replacement or refund for
a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. Consumers are also
entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does
not amount to a major failure. If you are not a consumer under the Act, then your rights may be limited. To make
a warranty claim, the purchaser may contact Pelican Products Australia, Suite 2.33, West Wing, Platinum Bldg.,

ni la exclusión o limitación de los daños incidentales o consecuentes, por lo que es posible que la limitación
o exclusión anterior no se aplique en su caso. Con esta garantía se le otorgan derechos legales especícos,
además de otros derechos que pueden variar de un estado a otro y de un país a otro.

pendant un an à compter de la date d’achat. Cette garantie s’applique uniquement à l’acheteur d’origine et elle
n’est pas transférable.
DANS LA MESURE PERMISE PAR LA LOI : (A) LA PRÉSENTE GARANTIE REMPLACE TOUTES LES

OU CONSÉCUTIF, OU ENCORE DE DOMMAGES PARTICULIERS, INDÉPENDAMMENT DU FAIT QUE LA
RÉCLAMATION RELATIVE À DE TELS DOMMAGES SOIT FONDÉE SUR LA GARANTIE, LE CONTRAT,
LA NÉGLIGENCE OU D’AUTRES MOTIFS; la responsabilité de Pelican vis-à-vis de l’acheteur pour des
dommages ne peut s’avérer supérieure au prix d’achat du produit pour lequel des dommages sont réclamés.
Sur présentation d’une preuve d’achat datée valide, Pelican s’engage à réparer ou à remplacer tout produit
défectueux, à sa seule discrétion. Certains produits ne sont offerts que pour une durée limitée. Si une
réclamation concerne un tel produit, Pelican se réserve le droit de remplacer le produit brisé ou défectueux par
un produit Pelican standard de taille et de qualité comparable si aucun produit comparable en édition limitée

abusif, d’une mauvaise utilisation, d’une négligence ou d’un accident.
Certains États et certains pays n’autorisent pas de limitations quant à la durée d’une garantie implicite ou
encore l’exclusion ou la limitation des dommages accessoires ou consécutifs; ainsi, il est possible que la
limitation ou l’exclusion ci-dessus ne s’applique pas à vous. Cette garantie vous confère des droits légaux
spéciques; il est possible que vous ayez d’autres droits, qui varient d’un État à l’autre et d’un pays à l’autre.
BATTERY SAFETY
BATTERY SAFETY – YOU MUST READ THESE WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
USING OR CHARGING YOUR BATTERIES!
WARNING: HANDLE AND STORE BATTERIES PROPERLY TO AVOID INJURY OR
DAMAGE
BATTERIES CAN BE DANGEROUS!
IMPROPER HANDLING OF BATTERIES CAN LEAD TO LEAKING, FIRE OR EXPLOSION
WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Rechargeable Batteries
» Hazardous Location Safety Approvals for explosive environments are only valid for the
Pelican battery pack that is supplied with the equipment.
» For replacement battery packs, only use the approved Pelican battery pack for the model
of the product that you are using. The use of other battery packs will reduce performance,
expose the user or others to serious injury, and will invalidate the safety approval.
» Equipment should only be charged in a non-hazardous location.
» Equipment should only be charged using the Pelican charger base that is supplied.
» Batteries should be charged and operated between the temperatures shown in this table:
» DO NOT charge rechargeable alkaline batteries while they are still in the equipment.
Charging the alkaline batteries while they are still in the equipment can cause internal gas
or heat generation resulting in venting, explosion or possibly re which could cause serious
injury or property damage.
» Deep discharge* of the rechargeable batteries may cause batteries to vent potentially
dangerous gasses and electrolytes.
» It is strongly recommended to condition* batteries every three months. During storage,
the capacity of the battery decreases due to self-discharging. Leaving the product unused
for long periods of time will decrease the battery life. Withdrawal of the charger from the
product prior to a ‘READY’ indication will result in an inadequate charge.
» If products are stored that contain regchargeable products, it is advisable to do so in a
cool, dry place. If the average temperature exceeds 25°C (77°F) (below 30°C or 86°F), the
frequency of supplementary charging should increase.
» It is advisable to always condition a battery that has been stored before use.
* Deep Discharge: The battery has been allowed to discharge most of its capacity to a point beyond which
irreparable damage has occurred. See battery specications for the specic levels.
* Condition a Battery: Charge your battery to the fullest capacity and then disconnect from charger. Let the
light run until it completely drains the battery and turns itself off. Place the ashlight back onto its charger and
completely recharge the battery before using it. This conditioning or “cycling” of the battery will help it retain a
fuller charge for a longer period of time.
Warning
» If the charger fails to indicate a full charge after repeated charging attempts, or the battery
exhibits a marked reduction in performance, a battery replacement is required.
» DO NOT use chargers designed for a different battery technology or equipment, or model.
Doing so may damage the product and expose the user to serious injury or property
damage.
» Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery Packs: DO NOT use Ni-MH rechargeable battery packs for
longer than three years or 500 charge/discharge cycles, whichever comes rst. Using Ni-
MH rechargeable battery packs for longer than three years or 500 charge/discharge cycles
will reduce the performance of the battery and expose the user to serious injury or property
damage.
» Li-Ion and LiFePO4 Rechargeable Battery Packs: DO NOT use Li-Ion and LiFePO4
rechargeable battery packs for longer than ve years. Using for a period longer than ve
years will reduce the performance of the battery and expose the user to serious injury or
property damage.
» Lead Acid Battery: DO NOT use lead acid batteries for longer than ve years or 400
charge/discharge cycles at 100% DOD ( Depth Of Discharge) * , whichever comes rst.
Using lead acid batteries for longer than ve years or 400 charge/discharge cycles at 100%
DOD will reduce the performance of the battery and expose the user to serious injury or
property damage.
* DOD (Depth Of Discharge) *: is the fraction or percentage of the capacity which has been removed from the
fully charged battery. Depth of Discharge is dened as the total amount of energy that is discharged from a
battery, divided by the battery’s nominal capacity. Depth of discharge is normally expressed as a percentage.
Battery Recycling
ALWAYS dispose of batteries properly at an approved battery recycling center. Failure to do so
may be a crime and can lead to the release of harmful toxic materials. Pelican has partnered
with Call 2 Recycle in the US and Canada to dispose of recyclable batteries. Please call 1-800-
822-8837 to nd a battery recycling center near you.
