This limited warranty program is the only one that applies to this product, and it sets forth all the

responsibilities of manufacturer, regarding this product. There is no other warranty, other than those

described herein.
This Vector Manufacturing product is warranted, to the original purchaser only, to be free of defects in

materials and workmanship for two years from the date of purchase without additional charge. The

warranty does not extend to subsequent purchasers or users. Manufacturer will not be responsible for any

amount of damage in excess of the retail purchase price of the product under any circumstances. Incidental

and consequential damages are specifically excluded from coverage under this warranty.
This product is not intended for commercial use. This warranty does not apply to accessories or damage to

units from misuse or incorrect installation. Misuse includes wiring or connecting to improper polarity power

sources.

of the date of purchase will be replaced free of charge. If such a product is returned more than 30 days

but less than two years from the purchase date, manufacturer will repair the unit or, at its option, replace it

free of charge.
If the unit is repaired, new or reconditioned replacement parts may be used, at manufacturer’s option. A

unit may be replaced with a new or reconditioned unit of the same or comparable design. The repaired or

replaced unit will then be warranted under the terms of the remainder of the warranty period. The customer

is responsible for the shipping charges on all returned items after 30 days. During the warranty period,

manufacturer will be responsible for the return shipping charges.

how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages,

so the exclusions or limitations stated herein may not apply. This warranty gives the purchaser specific legal

rights; other rights, which vary from state to state, may apply.
