This Orion product is warranted against defects in materials or workmanship for a peri-
od of one year from the date of purchase. This warranty is for the benefit of the original 
retail purchaser only. During this warranty period Orion Telescopes & Binoculars will 
repair or replace, at Orion’s option, any warranted instrument that proves to be defec-

This warranty does not apply if, in Orion’s judgment, the instrument has been abused, 
mishandled, or modified, nor does it apply to normal wear and tear. This warranty gives 
you specific legal rights. It is not intended to remove or restrict your other legal rights 
under applicable local consumer law; your state or national statutory consumer rights 
governing the sale of consumer goods remain fully applicable.
