5. WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
This Martindale product is warranted to be free from defects in material
and workmanship under normal use and service. The warranty period
is 2 years and begins on the date of receipt by the end user. This
warranty extends only to the original buyer or end-user customer,
and does not apply to fuses, disposable batteries, test leads or to any
product which, in Martindale's reasonable opinion, has been misused,
altered, neglected, contaminated, or damaged by accident or abnormal
conditions of operation, handling or storage.
Martindale authorised resellers shall extend this warranty on new and
unused products to end-user customers only but have no authority to
extend a greater or different warranty on behalf of Martindale.
Martindale's warranty obligation is limited, at Martindale's option, to refund
of the purchase price, free of charge repair, or replacement of a defective
product which is returned to Martindale within the warranty period.
This warranty is the buyer's sole and exclusive remedy and is in lieu of
all other warranties, expressed or implied, including but not limited to any
implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.

Martindale shall not be liable for any special, indirect, incidental or
consequential damages or losses, including loss of data, arising from
any cause or theory.
Since some jurisdictions do not allow limitation of the term of
an implied warranty, or exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, the limitations and exclusions of this warranty
may not apply to every buyer. If any part of any provision of this
warranty is held invalid or unenforceable by a court or other decision-
maker of competent jurisdiction, such holding will not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision or other part of that provision.
Nothing in this statement reduces your statutory rights.
