Eaton Corporation (“the manufacturer”) warrants its equipment against defects in materials or workmanship. The term of this warranty shall be as
stated in the Contract of Sale for such equipment. In the absence of any such statement in the Contract of Sale, the term of this warranty shall be ei-
ther i) one year if the date of initial sale of equipment was before July 1
st
, 2007, or ii) two years if the date of initial sale of equipment was on or after
July 1
st
, 2007, AND the purchaser of the equipment is a registered business in the United States of America or Canada. Warranty only applies to the
original purchaser. It does not apply to pre-used equipment.
This warranty is void in any of the following circumstances: (a) the equipment has been misused, neglected, damaged or abused; (b) the equipment
has been improperly installed, operated, repaired or maintained; (c) the equipment has been modified; (d) the equipment has been connected to
other equipment with which it is not compatible; (e) the equipment has been used or stored in conditions outside its electrical or environmental
Specifications; (f) the equipment has been used for purposes other than for which it was designed; (g) the equipment has been used outside its
stated specifications and operating parameters.
Unless otherwise provided in a contract of sale, correct installation is the owner’s responsibility. The equipment must be installed in accordance
with the installation procedures in the relevant supporting documentation. Failure to follow such installation procedures may, at the manufacturer’s
discretion, render this warranty null and void. The manufacturer shall not be liable if the equipment has been altered, damaged or rendered non-
functional through incorrect installation.
The manufacturer does not warrant any modules or components manufactured by third parties. However, the manufacturer shall extend to the
owner, in so far as practicable, the benefit of any warranties that such third party manufacturers may have given to the manufacturer concerning
such modules and components.
To assert a warranty claim, complete the Return Materials Authorization form (“RMA form”). An RMA form is available from the manufacturer or its
authorized service agent. If the manufacturer accepts the warranty claim, it shall instruct the owner to return the equipment either to the manu-
facturer or its authorized service agent. Wherever possible, use the original packaging to return items. The manufacturer may request proof of
purchase.
If the manufacturer accepts the warranty claim, the manufacturer will provide, or arrange for, service, repair or replacement, as the manufacturer
shall determine in its sole discretion. The manufacturer shall bear the cost of such service, repair or replacement. The owner shall bear the cost of
freight and insurance on the equipment to the manufacturer or its authorized service agent, as the case may be. The manufacturer shall bear the
cost of freight and insurance to return the equipment to the owner.
The manufacturer’s sole responsibility is to repair, replace or service equipment subject to a valid warranty claim. Under no circumstance will the
manufacturer be liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special or consequential costs or damages, including dismantling and re-installation costs,
loss of operations or profits, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for personal injury or property damage resulting from failure to heed relevant installation, operating and
safety procedures specified by the manufacturer or imposed by law.
This is an express warranty. The manufacturer disclaims any other express or implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability or fitness
for purpose, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations or disclaimers of implied or statutory warranties. Some jurisdictions do not allow disclaimers or exclu-
sions of consequential or incidental damages. Therefore, the above disclaimers, limitations and exclusions may not apply in all jurisdictions in
which the manufacturer sells its equipment.
This warranty gives the owner specific legal rights. The owner may have other rights or remedies pursuant to the laws in its territory. Nothing in
this limited warranty should be construed as limiting or restricting any other statutory right or remedy of the owner, except for such limitations or
restrictions herein as may be allowed by the law of the territory.
The manufacturer has a policy of continual product improvement and specifications are subject to change without notice.
