  • Compliance with Australian Consumer Laws

  • Express Warranty

Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under Australian Consumer Law:

  • You may be entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.
  • You may also be 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.
  • You will also receive coverage from the Manufacturer’s Warranty.
  • You will also be covered by an Express Warranty.

For information on Australian consumer laws, please visit Australian consumer law website at http://www.consumerlaw.gov.au.

In Australia, the buyer has rights under the Trade Practices Act or any other Commonwealth or State Legislation, which cannot be modified or excluded by agreement. Safiery Pty Ltd (‘SPL’)complies with these legal rights.

These rights do not have a defined warranty period. The warranty period depends on the type of product and its use. However, for peace of mind, SPL provides a Manufacturer’s Warranty and an Express Warranty that may be in excess of these rights in that the length of the term or the conditions are more favourable to the buyer.

Should your product be defective, you can choose to make a claim under Australian consumer law or the Manufacturer’s Warranty or the Express Warranty (whichever is applicable).

Manufacturer’s Warranty

Manufacturer’s Warranty period to the original purchaser for these periods of time from the date of purchase: 

  • “VICTRON” products: 5 years from the date of purchase for all electronic products excluding Victron batteries*

  • “DYNESS” (Safiery 48V Lithium Batteries – Dyness but with Safiery software) products:

  • 3 years from the date of purchase for Lithium Battery Products that are installed in a “NON-CANbus” controlled environment and charged using bulk/absorbtion and float voltage settings. 

  • 5 years from the date of purchase for Lithium Battery Products that are installed in a “CANbus” controlled environment WITH Victron charging and CANbus control of charging devices and these devices charge the batteries based on the CANbus commands from the Dyness Lithium battery. Access must be given to Safiery Pty Ltd to the Victron “VRM” (Victron Remote Management) to verify the correct installation of the CANbus configuration and operation.

  • “SIMARINE” products: 3 years from the date of purchase*

  • “SAFIERY” sensors, electronic and electrical products: 2 years from the date of purchase*

  • “SAFIERY LITHIUM BATTERY” : 3 years from the date of purchase*. Please note:

Lithium chemistry degrades because of Chemical Ageing:

  •  Time: With acceptable charging and discharging, even with CANbus control, approximately 2-3% of the battery nominal capacity degrades every year in a cumulative effect. Without CANbus control, this percentage may be double. This is not warranty

  • Cycling with deep discharge: Deep discharges over 80% will accelerate Chemical Ageing. Deep discharges of 90-100% require immediate battery recovery for continued operation. A deep discharge left unattended is not warranty.

  • Elevated temperatures:  A fully charged Lithium Battery stored at around 40°C loses approximately 30-35% of its capacity in a year without being used. This is not Warranty.

  • Stored at high State of Charge:  A fully charged Lithium Battery stored at around 90-100% State of Charge loses approximately 15-25% of its capacity in a year without being used. This is not Warranty.

  • Higher Capacity chargers than specified and higher capacity discharges than specified are harmful and reduce battery life to half.
