LIMITED WARRANTY & LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
LIMITED WARRANTY & LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Each Fluke product is warranted to be free from defects in material and
workmanship under normal use and service. The warranty period is one year
and begins on the date of shipment. Parts, product repairs and services are
warranted for 90 days. This warranty extends only to the original buyer or end-
user customer of a Fluke authorized reseller, and does not apply to fuses,
disposable batteries or to any product which, in Fluke's opinion, has been
misused, altered, neglected or damaged by accident or abnormal conditions of
operation or handling. Fluke warrants that software will operate substantially in
accordance with its functional specifications for 90 days and that it has been
properly recorded on non-defective media. Fluke does not warrant that
software will be error free or operate without interruption.
Fluke authorized resellers shall extend this warranty on new and unused products
to end-user customers only but have no authority to extend a greater or different
warranty on behalf of Fluke. Warranty support is available if product is purchased
through a Fluke authorized sales outlet or Buyer has paid the applicable
international price. Fluke reserves the right to invoice Buyer for importation costs
of repair/replacement parts when product purchased in one country is submitted
for repair in another country.
Fluke's warranty obligation is limited, at Fluke's option, to refund of the purchase
price, free of charge repair, or replacement of a defective product which is
returned to a Fluke authorized service center within the warranty period.
To obtain warranty service, contact your nearest Fluke authorized service center
or send the product, with a description of the difficulty, postage and insurance
prepaid (FOB Destination), to the nearest Fluke authorized service center. Fluke
assumes no risk for damage in transit. Following warranty repair, the product will
be returned to Buyer, transportation prepaid (FOB Destination). If Fluke
determines that the failure was caused by misuse, alteration, accident or abnormal
condition of operation or handling, Fluke will provide an estimate of repair costs
and obtain authorization before commencing the work. Following repair, the
product will be returned to the Buyer transportation prepaid and the Buyer will be
billed for the repair and return transportation charges (FOB Shipping Point).
THIS WARRANTY IS BUYER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND IS IN
LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING
BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FLUKE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, WHETHER ARISING
FROM BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT,
RELIANCE OR ANY OTHER THEORY.
Since some countries or states do not allow limitation of the term of an implied
warranty, or exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, the
limitations and exclusions of this warranty may not apply to every buyer. If any
provision of this Warranty is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction, such holding will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision.
