SlingStudio Warranty, Safety, Regulatory and Legal Information This is a legal document. Keep it in a safe place. Remember to retain your Bill of Sale for warranty service.  Limited Warranty  What Does This Warranty Cover? This warranty only covers defects in materials and workmanship of SlingStudio hardware products purchased or leased from Sling Media or its authorized resellers or partners and extends only to the original user of such products. This warranty does not cover any Sling Media software provided with your SlingStudio or other third-party hardware or software. Your use of any such third-party hardware or software will be governed by the terms and conditions of any such third-party hardware or software license agreement accompanying such third-party hardware or software; or as agreed to when you set up an account for your SlingStudio product. This warranty is valid only in the United States. How Long Does the Coverage Last? If your SlingStudio hardware product was purchased from an authorized reseller or directly from Sling Media, your SlingStudio hardware product is warranted to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for one (1) year from the original date of purchase. If you are leasing your SlingStudio from an authorized Sling Media partner or from Sling Media directly, your SlingStudio hardware product is warranted for one (1) year from the date your lease began, unless a different period is specified in your lease agreement or other agreement pursuant to which you obtain your SlingStudio hardware product. What will Sling Media Do? If your SlingStudio hardware product is defective and the defect is covered by this warranty, Sling Media will repair or replace it with the same product, or another product with similar features. Any replacement product may be from refurbished stock. Where a replacement product is offered, the warranty will continue from the date of original purchase or lease. How Do You Get Warranty Service?
