Limited Warranty - SIMS Deltec CADD-Legacy PLUS Operator's Manual

Section 5: Reference

Limited Warranty

SIMS Deltec, Inc. (the "Manufacturer") warrants to the Original Purchaser that the infusion
pump (the "Pump"), not including accessories, shall be free from defects in materials and work-
manship under normal use, if used in accordance with this Operator's Manual, for a period of
one year from the actual date of sale to the Original Purchaser. THERE ARE NO OTHER
WARRANTIES.
This warranty does not cover normal wear and tear and maintenance items, and specifically
excludes batteries, administration sets, extension sets or any other accessory items or equip-
ment used with the Pump.
Subject to the conditions of and upon compliance with this Limited Warranty, the Manufac-
turer will repair or replace at its option without charge (except for a minimal charge for postage
and handling) any Pump (not including accessories) which is defective if a claim is made during
such one-year period.
The following conditions, procedures, and limitations apply to the Manufacturer's obligation
under this warranty:
A. Parties Covered by this Warranty: This warranty extends only to the Original Purchaser of
the Pump. This warranty does not extend to subsequent purchasers. The Original Purchaser
may be a patient, medical personnel, a hospital, or institution which purchases the Pump for
treatment of patients. The Original Purchaser should retain the invoice or sales receipt as proof
as to the actual date of purchase.
B. Warranty Performance Procedure: Notice of the claimed defect must be made in writing or
by telephone to the Manufacturer as follows: SIMS Deltec 1265 Grey Fox Road, St. Paul MN
55112 U.S.A., 1-800-426-2448 or SIMS Graseby Ltd. WD2 4LG UK, +44 (0)1923 246434.
Notice to the Manufacturer must include date of purchase, model and serial number, and a
description of the claimed defect in sufficient detail to allow the Manufacturer to determine and
facilitate any repairs which may be necessary. AUTHORIZATION MUST BE OBTAINED
PRIOR TO RETURNING THE PUMP. If authorized, the Pump must be properly and care-
fully packaged and returned to the Manufacturer, postage prepaid. Any loss or damage during
shipment is at the risk of the sender.
C. Conditions of Warranty: The warranty is void if the Pump has been 1) repaired by someone
other than the Manufacturer or its authorized agent; 2) altered so that its stability or reliability
is affected; 3) misused; or, 4) damaged by negligence or accident. Misuse includes, but is not
limited to, use not in compliance with the Operator's Manual or use with nonapproved accesso-
ries. The Pump is a sealed unit, and the fact that the seal has been broken will be considered
conclusive evidence that the Pump has been altered or misused. Removal or damage to the
Pump's serial number will invalidate this warranty.
D. Limitations and Exclusions: Repair or replacement of the Pump or any component part
thereof is the EXCLUSIVE remedy offered by the Manufacturer. The following exclusions and
limitations shall apply:
1. No agent, representative, or employee of the Manufacturer has authority to bind the
Manufacturer to any representation or warranty, expressed or implied.
2. THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OR USE
OF THE PUMP FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
3. The Pump can only be used under the supervision of medical personnel whose skill and
judgment determine the suitability of the Pump for any particular medical treatment.
4. All recommendations, information, and descriptive literature supplied by the Manufac-
turer or its agents are believed to be accurate and reliable, but do not constitute warranties.
