limitations.
1.8.1 Warranty Statement
BFGoodrich Avionics Systems, (hereinafter called BFGAS), warrants each item of new equipment
manufactured or sold by BFGAS to be free from defects in material and workmanship, under normal use
as intended, for a period of 30 months from date of shipment by BFGAS to an authorized facility, or 24
months from date of installation by an authorized facility, whichever occurs first. No claim for breach of
warranties will be allowed unless BFGAS is notified thereof, in writing, within thirty (30) days after the
material or workmanship defect is found.
The obligation of BFGAS shall be limited to replacing or repairing at its factory the equipment found
defective under terms of this warranty certificate; providing that such equipment is returned in an
approved shipping container, transportation charges prepaid, to BFGAS, Grand Rapids, Michigan, or such
other location as BFGAS may authorize. BFGAS reserves the right to have necessary repairs performed by
an authorized agency.
This warranty shall not apply to any unit or part thereof which has not been installed or maintained in
accordance with BFGAS instructions, or has been repaired or altered in any way so as to adversely affect
its performance or reliability, or which has been subjected to misuse, negligence or accident.
This warranty is exclusive and is accepted by buyer in lieu of all other guaranties or warranties express or
implied, including without limitation the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular
purpose. Buyer agrees that in no event will BFGAS liability for all losses from any cause, whether based in
contract, negligence, strict liability, other tort or otherwise, exceed buyer’s net purchase price, nor will
BFGAS be liable for any special, incidental, consequential, or exemplary damages.
BFGAS reserves the right to make changes in design or additions to or improvements in its equipment
without the obligation to install such additions or improvement in equipment theretofore manufactured.
