Warranty Policy - Pentax 645 Operating Manual

WARRANTY POLICY
All Pentax cameras purchased through authorized
bona fide photographic distribution channels
are guaranteed against defects of material or
workmanship for a period of twelve months from
date of purchase. Service will be rendered and
defective parts will be replaced without cost to you
within that period, provided your camera has not
been abused, altered, or operated contrary to
instruction. Because the tolerances, quality, and
design compatibility of lenses other than Pentax
lenses are beyond our control, damage caused by
use of such lenses will not be covered by this
warranty policy. The manufacturer or its authorized
representatives shall not be liable for any repair of
alterations except those made with its written
consent and shall not be liable for damages from
delay or loss of use or from other indirect or
consequential damages of any kind, whether caused
by defective material or workmanship or otherwise;
and it is expressly agreed that the liability of the
manufacturer or its representatives under all
guarantees or warranties, whether expressed or
implied, is strictly limited to the replacement of
parts as hereinbefore provided.
PROCEDURE DURING 12 MONTH WARRANTY
PERIOD
Any Pentax camera which proves defective during
the 12-month warranty p.eriod should be returned
to the dealer from whom you purchased your
camera or to the manufacturer. If there is no
representative of the manufacturer in your country,
send your camera to the manufacturer, with
postage prepaid. In this case, it will take a con¬
siderable length of time before your camera can be
returned to you owing to the complicated customs
procedures required in Japan in importing and
re-exporting photographic equipment. If your
camera is covered by warranty, repairs will be made
and parts replaced free of charge, and your camera
will be returned to you upon completion of
servicing. If your camera is not covered by warranty,
regular charges of the manufacturer or of its
representatives will apply. Shipping charges are to
be borne by the owner. If your Pentax camera was
purchased outside of the country where you wish to
have serviced during the warranty period, regular
handling and servicing fees may be charged by the
manufacturer's representative in that country.
