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.
