WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY?
This Limited Warranty does not cover damage or malfunctions caused by accident, disaster,
misuse (including any use in a manner contrary to the instructions contained in any user guide
or on the packaging of the device), abuse, negligence or other external causes; third-party
products; Internet or telecommunications failures; commercial use; unauthorized opening, use,
service, tampering, alteration, repair or modification; or inadequate packing or shipping proce-
dures. This Limited Warranty also does not cover cosmetic damage or normal wear and tear.
This Limited Warranty does not apply to NOOKs sold as used, refurbished or reconditioned,
except to the extent that such NOOK is a certified pre-owned NOOK that was purchased
directly from B&N or from a B&N authorized reseller of certified pre-owned NOOKs. This
Limited Warranty will be void if the Serial Number on your NOOK has been removed, tam-
pered with or defaced or if your NOOK has been opened or serviced without authorization,
tampered with, altered or modified. Please note that opening the back cover of your NOOK
to change the battery, external SD card or back cover will void this Limited Warranty, except
to the extent that such opening is done through a customer-accessible opening and in accor-
dance with the instructions provided with the NOOK.
This Limited Warranty applies to your NOOK only (i.e., the hardware), and not to the soft-
ware within your NOOK. Please refer to the NOOK TERMS OF SERVICE for your rights and
remedies with respect to such software.
Similarly, this Limited Warranty does not cover downloaded data or materials, or accessories
and peripherals, except as expressly provided above.
