IMPORTANT WARNING!

LATCHES AND MOUNTING KIT CARE

It is critical that Pelican™ Cargo Mounts and Cases be properly installed and securely attached to your vehicle. Failure to properly secure the

mounts and cases to your vehicle could result in serious injury and even death. You are responsible for the ﬁtment of the mounts and Cargo

Cases to your vehicle. You must therefore periodically inspect the equipment for wear and damage. Replace if in doubt. If you have limited

mechanical experience you should not attempt to install the equipment. You should have the equipment installed by a professional installer

if you have any doubts about your abilities.

It is imperative that the user check the security of the cases to the vehicle after an initial brief period of driving and adjust if required.

Pelican recommends the user do so periodically and, if road conditions change (i.e. freeway to dirt "road)" again check the security of the

attachment of the Case to the vehicle.

Periodically check the latches and mounting hardware to ensure there are no loose parts. Continual exposure to daylight may cause the black hardware

ﬁnish to dull. To maintain the glossy ﬁnish, occasionally apply a light coat of UV protectant. After exposure to salty coastal climates or snowy regions,

rinse oﬀ the mounts with water to remove salt deposits. To help prevent corrosion, apply a silicone-based oil or spray to nuts and bolts.

Pelican Products, Inc. (“Pelican”) guarantees its Pelican™ Cargo cases for a lifetime against

breakage or defects in workmanship. This lifetime warranty does not cover mounting hardware,

which Pelican warrants against defects in materials and workmanship for three years from the date

of purchase. To the extent permitted by law, Pelican’s liability is limited to the case and not its

contents and in no event shall Pelican’s liability to the purchaser for damages exceed the purchase

price of the case in respect of which damages are claimed.

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 .

With valid dated proof of purchase, Pelican will either repair or replace any broken or 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.

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, with respect to the mounts and related hardware, no later

than three years 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.

This warranty does not cover normal wear and tear including but not limited to scratches, dents

or tears, aesthetic surface damage which may be caused by oxidation or by the natural breakdown

of colors caused by exposure to the elements. All warranty claims of any nature are barred if the

product has been altered, damaged 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 speciﬁc legal rights, and you may have other rights

which vary from state to state and country to country.

In Australia: The beneﬁts 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, modiﬁed

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.,

Erina NSW 2250, Tel: +612 4367 7022, or email: [email protected]. Any claims should be

made as soon as practicable. To expedite claims, the purchaser should obtain a return authorization

number from Pelican Customer Service prior to returning any product. The purchaser is responsible

for paying for all freight costs. If Pelican determines that any returned product is not defective,

within the terms of this warranty or the Act, the purchaser may pay Pelican all costs of handling,

return freight and repairs at Pelican’s prevailing rates. In the event that Pelican determines that

any returned product is defective, within the terms of this warranty or the Act, Pelican shall pay the

purchaser all reasonable costs of the purchaser in making a claim under this warranty.

Lifetime warranty does not cover Vault by Pelican or Roto Molded cases or fabric portion of backpacks.
