LIMITED WARRANTY 

Lake Shore Cryotronics, Inc. (henceforth Lake Shore), the manufacturer, warrants the instrument to be free from defects in 
material and workmanship for a period of twelve months from the date of shipment. During the warranty period, under authorized 
return of instruments or component parts to Lake Shore freight prepaid, the company will repair, or at its option replace, any part 
found to be defective in material or workmanship, without charge to the Owner for parts, service labor or associated customary 
shipping cost. Replacement or repaired parts will be warranted for only the unexpired portion of the original warranty. 
All products are thoroughly tested and calibrated to published specifications prior to shipment. Calibration Certifications are 
offered for six month periods only. Where such documentation must be updated, a re-certification service is offered by Lake 
Shore at a reasonable cost.
