Warranty; Service Contract - Zeiss Acuitus 5000 User Manual

Warranty

For one year from the date of delivery to the original purchaser, Seller warrants its Acuitus (the
"instrument") to be free from defects in material and workmanship. In the event of failure, Seller's
obligation is limited to repairing or replacing on an exchange basis parts which have been promptly
reported by the Purchaser during the warranty period as being defective and are so found by Seller upon
inspection. The procedure for warranty claims shall be as follows: when the Purchaser believes the
instrument defective, the Purchaser shall promptly report the defect to the Seller. The Seller shall repair the
Acuitus in the Seller's repair depot. All shipping costs will be paid by the Seller, unless the Purchaser's
Acuitus is found upon inspection not to be eligible for repair under this warranty, in which case the
Purchaser shall be responsible for one-half of the shipping costs. The warranty covers all parts, labor,
shipping and expenses for the warranty period (country specific).
If the instrument is determined to be ineligible for repair under the warranty, Seller will so notify
Purchaser, and repairs desired by Purchaser will be performed at Seller's normal rates. All replaced parts
become the property of the Seller. A loaner instrument may be available while Purchaser's instrument is
being repaired. All shipping costs for loaner instruments to be borne by Purchaser.
The warranty does not cover consumable items such as operating supplies, paper, ribbons, bulbs, and
manuals, and will not apply if repair or parts replacement is required because of accident, neglect, misuse,
transportation, or causes other than ordinary use, or supplies that do not meet the proper operating
specifications of the Seller. The warranty does not apply if software unapproved by the Seller is used in the
instrument. This warranty does not apply to any articles that have been repaired or altered except by the
Seller.
Every reasonable effort has been made to ensure that the product manuals and promotional materials
accurately describe the instrument's specifications and capabilities at the time of publication. However,
because of ongoing improvements and product updates, the Seller cannot guarantee the accuracy of printed
materials after the date of publication and disclaims liability for changes, errors, and omissions. Seller shall
in no event be liable to Purchaser for loss of profits, loss of use or consequential damages caused by the
Purchaser's failure to fulfill the Purchaser's responsibilities as to proper installation, use, management and
supervision of the instrument. This warranty shall apply only to the original Purchaser and shall not, in any
way, be transferable or assignable.
The foregoing warranty is in lieu of all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, the
implied warranty of merchantability or warranty of fitness for a particular purpose. (All Specifications are
subject to change without notice.)

Service Contract

A Warranty Extension Agreement (Service Contract) is available after the one-year warranty period expires
