MacroSystem Digital Video HDV Recorder HDD/RT, User Manual

Legal notices

To avoid making mistakes during operation, we recommend that you carefully follow the instructions provided 
in this manual.
We have taken a great deal of care whilst programming and checking this software.
Nevertheless, since it is not possible to guarantee totally error-free software applications in all environments 
and at any time, we unfortunately cannot rule out the possibility that some errors may have crept in.

MacroSystem Digital Video AG and its dealers therefore do not guarantee fault-free use of the product or 
complete flawlessness of the product.

 
We will remedy any errors in the program and supply the affected customers with the new software free of 
charge, if possible.
Warranty claims for defects shall expire in 24 months in the case of newly manufactured items. This shall not 
apply insofar as the law prescribes otherwise and in cases involving injury to life, limb or health, in the case of 
intentional or grossly negligent violation of duty on the part of the supplier and in the case of malicious silence 
with regard to a defect.
The customer shall report defects to the supplier immediately in writing. Claims for reimbursement of 
expenses for error tracing shall be honoured only after prior consultation with MacroSystem Digital Video AG 
management staff.
Any other claims asserted by the customer for any expense(s) required for the purpose of subsequent 
performance, in particular transport, travelling, work and material costs shall be excluded. However, this shall 
not apply to claims for reasons other than newly determined software defects.

Warranty claims shall not apply in the case of only insignificant deviation from the agreed quality, for only 
insignificant impairment of the usefulness, in the case of natural wear or damage which may occur after 
passage of the risk due to improper or careless handling, excessive use, unsuitable operating materials or 
which have occurred due to other special external influences not provided for in accordance with the terms of 
the agreement. In the event that improper modifications or repair work is performed by the customer or any 
third party, then any warranty claims for defects shall also be null and void for these and other consequences.

We do not, however, accept any liability for loss of data/time or any consequential damages that may occur 
as a result, particularly because we have no influence over correct software installation and operation by the 
customer. MacroSystem Digital Video AG and its dealers therefore cannot be held liable for any defects or 
unintentional damage in connection with the installation or use of the HDV-Recorder.

Claims by the customer to compensation in damages and/or reimbursement of expenses shall thus be 
excluded, in particular because of violation of contractual obligations and due to unlawful acts. However, this 
shall not apply insofar as peremptory liability is involved, e.g. in accordance with product liability law, in cases 
of intention, gross negligence, because of injury to life, limb or health or because of violation of substantial 
contract obligations. However, any claims to damages for violation of substantial contract obligations shall be 
limited to conventional foreseeable damage insofar as intention or gross negligence is not involved or liability 
due to injury to life, limb or health. A shift of the burden of proof to the disadvantage of the customer shall not 
be connected with the above regulations.

Neither MacroSystem Digital Video AG nor its dealers are responsible for any damages resulting either directly 
or indirectly through the use of the software or the operating instructions. This is particularly the cause for 
profit loss and reimbursement of expense.
Any implied guarantee is totally out of the question, including guarantee of suitability of the software or 
operating instructions for a particular purpose.
