Appendix
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 the
equipment does not show evidence of impact, sand or liquid damage, mishandling,
tampering, battery or chemical corrosion, operation contrary to operating
instructions, or modification by an unauthorized repair shop. The manufacturer or
its authorized representatives shall not be liable for any repair or 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. No refunds will be made on repairs
by non-authorized PENTAX service facilities.
Procedure During 12-month Warranty Period
Any PENTAX which proves defective during the 12-month warranty period should
be returned to the dealer from whom you purchased the equipment or to the
manufacturer. If there is no representative of the manufacturer in your country, send
the equipment to the manufacturer, with postage prepaid. In this case, it will take a
considerable length of time before the equipment can be returned to you owing to
the complicated customs procedures required. If the equipment is covered by
warranty, repairs will be made and parts replaced free of charge, and the equipment
will be returned to you upon completion of servicing. If the equipment 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 was purchased
outside of the country where you wish to have it serviced during the warranty period,
regular handling and servicing fees may be charged by the manufacturer’s
representatives in that country. Notwithstanding this, your PENTAX returned to the
manufacturer will be serviced free of charge according to this procedure and
warranty policy. In any case, however, shipping charges and customs clearance
fees to be borne by the sender. To prove the date of your purchase when required,
please keep the receipt or bills covering the purchase of your equipment for at least
a year. Before sending your equipment for servicing, please make sure that you are
sending it to the manufacturer’s authorized representatives or their approved repair
shops, unless you are sending it directly to the manufacturer. Always obtain a
quotation for the service charge, and only after you accept the quoted service
charge, instruct the service station to proceed with the servicing.
