1-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

We warrant the original retail purchaser that products made by Humminbird® have
been manufactured free from defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty is
effective for one year from the date of original retail purchase. Humminbird® products
found to be defective and covered by this warranty will be replaced or repaired free of
charge at Humminbird®’s option and returned to the customer freight prepaid.
Humminbird®’s sole responsibility under this warranty is limited to the repair or
replacement of a product that has been deemed defective by Humminbird®.
Humminbird® is not responsible for charges connected with the removal of such
product or reinstallation of replaced or repaired parts.

This warranty does not apply to a product that has been:

• Improperly installed;
• Used in an installation other than that recommended in the product installation

and operation instructions;

• Damaged or has failed because of an accident or abnormal operation;
• Repaired or modified by entities other than Humminbird®.

Please retain your original receipt as a proof of the purchase date. This will be required
for in-warranty service.

THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS OR
LIABILITIES ON THE PART OF HUMMINBIRD® AND WILL BE THE CUSTOMER'S
EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, EXCEPT FOR ANY APPLICABLE IMPLIED WARRANTIES UNDER STATE
LAW WHICH ARE HEREBY LIMITED IN DURATION TO ONE YEAR FROM THE DATE OF
ORIGINAL PURCHASE. IN NO EVENT WILL HUMMINBIRD® BE LIABLE FOR ANY
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
WARRANTY RELATING TO THE PRODUCTS.

Some states do not allow limitations on an implied warranty, or the exclusion of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to you.
You may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.

HUMMINBIRD® SERVICE POLICY

Even though you'll probably never need to take advantage of our incredible service
policy, it's good to know that we back our products this confidently. We do it
because you deserve the best. We will make every effort to repair your unit within
three business days from the receipt of your unit at our factory. This does not
include shipping time to and from our factory. Units received on Friday are typically
shipped by the following Wednesday, units received Monday are typically shipped
by Thursday, etc.

All repair work is performed by factory-trained technicians to meet exacting factory
specifications. Factory-serviced units go through the same rigorous testing and quality
control inspections as new production units.

After the original warranty period, a standard flat rate service charge will be assessed
for each repair (physical damage and missing parts are not included). Any repairs
made after the original warranty will be warranted for an additional 90 days after
service has been performed by our factory technicians. You can contact our Customer
Resource Center or visit our website to verify the flat rate repair fee for your product
(visit the Product Support section):

We reserve the right to deem any product unserviceable when replacement parts are
no longer available or impossible to obtain. This Service Policy is valid in the United
States only. This applies only to Humminbird® products returned to our factory in
Eufaula, Alabama. This Service Policy is subject to change without notice.
