free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date
of original purchase (“Warranty Period”). The obligation of Clarity under this warranty
shall be at Clarity‘s option, without charge, of any part or unit that proves to be defective
in material or workmanship during the Warranty Period.
Exclusions from Warranty
This warranty applies only to defects in factory materials and factory workmanship.
Any condition caused by accident, abuse, misuse or improper operation, violation of
instructions furnished by Clarity, destruction or alteration, improper electrical voltages
or currents, or repair or maintenance attempted by anyone other than Clarity or an
authorized service center, is not a defect covered by this warranty. Telephone companies
manufacture different types of equipment and Clarity does not warrant that its equipment
is compatible with the equipment of a particular phone company.
Implied Warranties
Under state law, you may be entitled to the benefit of certain implied warranties. These
implied warranties will continue in force only during the warranty period. Some states do
allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not
apply to you.
Incidental or Consequential Damages
Neither Clarity nor your retail dealer or selling distributors has any responsibility for any
incidental or consequential damages including without limitation, commercial loss or
profit, or for any incidental expenses, expenses, loss of time, or inconvenience. Some
states do not allow exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damage, so the
above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
Other Legal Rights
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which
vary from state to state.
