Canon U.S.A., Inc. Limited Warranty - U.S. Only
The limited warranty set forth below is given by Canon U.S.A., Inc. ("Canon USA") with respect to
the new or refurbished Canon-brand product ("Product") packaged with this limited warranty, when
purchased and used in the United States only.
The Product is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and
service (a) for a period of one (1) year from the date of original purchase when delivered to you in
new condition in its original container or (b) for 90 days from the date of original purchase for
refurbished Products. Defective parts or a defective Product returned to a Canon USA repair facility
or a Canon USA Authorized Service Facility ("ASF"), and proven to be defective upon inspection, will
be repaired, exchanged for new or comparable rebuilt parts, or exchanged for a refurbished Product,
as determined by the Canon USA repair facility or the ASF. Warranty repair or replacement shall not
extend the original warranty period of the Product. A dated proof of purchase is required at the time
of warranty service. A copy of your dated bill of sale will satisfy this requirement. This warranty does
not cover any accessories, or any consumables, such as paper or ink cartridges, as to which there
shall be no warranty or replacement.
This limited warranty shall only apply if the Product is used in conjunction with compatible
computers, peripheral equipment and software. Canon USA shall have no responsibility for such
items except for compatible Canon brand peripheral equipment covered by a separate warranty
("Separate Warranty"). Repairs of such Canon brand peripheral equipment shall be governed by the
terms of the Separate Warranty. Non-Canon brand equipment and software that may be distributed
with the Product are sold "as is" and without warranty of any kind by Canon USA, including any
implied warranty regarding merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, and all such warranties
are disclaimed. The sole warranty, if any, with respect to such non-Canon brand items is given by the
manufacturer or producer thereof.
This limited warranty covers all defects encountered in normal use of the Product and does not apply
in the following cases:
(a) Loss of or damage to the Product due to abuse, neglect, mishandling, improper packaging by
you, alteration, accident, electrical current fluctuations, improper use, failure to follow operating or
maintenance instructions in, or environmental conditions prescribed in, Canon USA's user's manual
or other documentation, or services performed by someone other than a Canon USA repair facility or
ASF. Without limiting the foregoing, dropping the Product, scratches, and abrasions will be
presumed to have resulted from misuse, abuse or failure to operate the Product as set forth in the
user's manual or other documentation for the Product.
(b) Use of parts or supplies (other than those sold by Canon USA) that cause damage to the Product
or cause abnormally frequent service calls or service problems.
(c) If the Product has had its serial number or dating defaced, altered or removed.
ANY SYSTEM SOFTWARE (WHETHER FACTORY LOADED ON THE PRODUCT OR
CONTAINED ON THE SOFTWARE DISKETTES OR CD-ROMS ENCLOSED WITH, OR
ACCOMPANYING, THE PRODUCT), AND ANY UTILITY SOFTWARE, DISTRIBUTED WITH OR
FOR THE PRODUCT, IS SOLD "AS IS" AND WITHOUT WARRANTY BY CANON USA. THE SOLE
WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH SOFTWARE IS CONTAINED IN THE SOFTWARE
MANUFACTURER'S LICENSE AGREEMENT DISTRIBUTED THEREWITH, INCLUDING ANY
LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS THEREON. PLEASE CONTACT CANON USA IMMEDIATELY
IF YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED A COPY OF THE SOFTWARE MANUFACTURER'S LICENSE
AGREEMENT.
NO IMPLIED WARRANTY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, APPLIES TO THE PRODUCT AFTER THE
APPLICABLE PERIOD OF THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY STATED ABOVE, AND NO
OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTY OR GUARANTY, EXCEPT AS MENTIONED ABOVE, GIVEN BY
ANY PERSON OR ENTITY WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCT SHALL BIND CANON USA, OR
