e Status is a battery status indicator. It uses a screen to show numeric
battery voltage and state of charge, and also has an LED that turns green,
yellow/amber, or red to indicate battery health. A quick glance at the Status
controller assures the driver or technician that the batteries are ready to go,
or alerts the driver that the batteries need maintenance.

LIMITED COMMERCIAL WARRANTY POLICY
MCE Purkeys FE, LLC (hereaer “Purkeys”), warrants each product to be free of
defects in material or workmanship under normal use and service. is warranty
is for the benet of Original Equipment Manufacturers, Dealers, Warehouse
Distributors, Fleets, or other End Users (hereaer “Customers”) and covers products
manufactured and/or branded by Purkeys and sold new to Customers either directly
by Purkeys or by its authorized dealers, distributors, or agents. e length of the
Warranty Period is 36 months. Products from other manufacturers, that are branded
by said manufacturer, will carry the manufacturer’s original stated warranty.
e warranty period commences on the in-service or install date and is not
transferable. Failure to provide the in-service or install date on the warranty claim
form will cause the warranty period to begin on the date the part was manufactured,
or date of sale recorded on the original sales invoice, whichever is earlier.
A completed warranty claim form should accompany all parts submitted to Purkeys
for consideration for repair or replacement under warranty. e submitted claim
form should contain all of the information required. Lack of a properly or fully
completed claim form will result in delay or denial of warranty claim. Claims must be
submitted no later than 30 days aer part is removed. An RMA# should be requested
prior to returning any product for warranty consideration. Please contact the Purkeys’
Warranty Department to request an RMA# at [e-mail] and to provide
your warranty claim information.
is warranty does not apply if, in sole judgment of Purkeys, the product has been
damaged or subjected to accident, faulty repair, improper adjustment, improper
installation or wiring, neglect, misuse, or alteration or if the product failure is caused
by defects in peripheral vehicle components or components attached to the Product
or failure of a part not manufactured by Purkeys.
is warranty shall not apply if any Purkeys product is used for a purpose for which
it is not designed or is in any way altered without the specic prior written consent
of Purkeys. ANY product alleged by a Customer to be defective must be inspected by
Purkeys as a part of the warranty claims process in order to conrm that the part has
failed as a result of a defect in material or workmanship.
Transportation for products and parts submitted to Purkeys for warranty
consideration must be prepaid by Customer. Repaired or replaced products and or
components will be returned to Customer pre-paid by Customer or “freight collect”
to the address provided by Customer in the warranty claim form. No charge will be
made for labor or material in eecting such repairs.
e Warranty provided by Purkeys hereunder is specically limited to repair or
replacement of the Product as Purkeys deems most appropriate in its sole discretion.
Purkeys neither assumes nor authorizes any other person to assume on its behalf any
other warranty or liabilities in connection with Purkeys products. e Warranty does
not apply to fuses or other “consumable” or maintenance items which are or may be a
part of any Purkeys product.
THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY TO LOSS OF VEHICLE OR EQUIPMENT,
LOSS OF TIME, INCONVENIENCE, OR OTHER INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. PURKEYS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS AND
SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
arising out of or from the use of Purkeys products by the Customer.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
INCLUDING COMMON LAW WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, AND ANY OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
WARRANTIES. ALL OTHER SUCH WARRANTIES ARE SPECIFICALLY
DISCLAIMED.
