Limited Warranty
Kodak warrants its digital cameras and accessories (excluding batteries) to be free from
malfunctions and defects in both materials and workmanship for the warranty period
specified on your KODAK Product packaging. Retain the original dated sales receipt. Proof of
purchase date is required with any request for warranty repair.
Limited warranty coverage
Warranty service is only available from within the country where the products were originally
purchased. You may be required to ship products, at your expense, to the authorized service
facility for the country where the products were purchased. Kodak will repair or replace
products if they fail to function properly during the warranty period, subject to any conditions
and/or limitations stated herein. Warranty service will include all labor as well as any
necessary adjustments and/or replacement parts. If Kodak is unable to repair or replace a
product, Kodak will, at its option, refund the purchase price paid for the product provided
the product has been returned to Kodak along with proof of the purchase price paid. Repair,
replacement, or refund of the purchase price are the sole remedies under the warranty. If
replacement parts are used in making repairs, those parts may be remanufactured, or may
contain remanufactured materials. If it is necessary to replace the entire product, it may be
replaced with a remanufactured product. Remanufactured products, parts and materials are
warranted for the remaining warranty term of the original product, or 90 days after the date
of repair or replacement, whichever is longer.
Limitations
This warranty does not cover circumstances beyond Kodak’s control. This warranty does not

Appendix
apply when failure is due to shipping damage, accident, alteration, modification,
unauthorized service, misuse, abuse, use with incompatible accessories or attachments (such
as third party ink or ink tanks), failure to follow Kodak’s operation, maintenance or repacking
instructions, failure to use items supplied by Kodak (such as adapters and cables), or claims
made after the duration of this warranty. Kodak makes no other express or implied
warranty for this product, and disclaims the implied warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. In the event that the exclusion
of any implied warranty is ineffective under the law, the duration of the implied warranty will
be one year from the purchase date or such longer period as required by law. The option of
repair, replacement, or refund is Kodak’s only obligation. Kodak will not be responsible for
any special, consequential or incidental damages resulting from the sale, purchase, or use of
this product regardless of the cause. Liability for any special, consequential or incidental
damages (including but not limited to loss of revenue or profit, downtime costs, loss of the
use of the equipment, cost of substitute equipment, facilities or services, or claims of your
customers for such damages resulting from the purchase, use, or failure of the product),
regardless of cause or for breach of any written or implied warranty is expressly disclaimed.
The limitations and exclusions of liability set forth herein apply to both Kodak and its
suppliers.
Your rights
Some states or jurisdictions do not allow exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. Some
states or jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the
above limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific rights, and you may
have other rights which vary from state to state or by jurisdiction.
Outside the United States and Canada
In countries other than the United States and Canada, the terms and conditions of this
warranty may be different. Unless a specific Kodak warranty is communicated to the
purchaser in writing by a Kodak company, no warranty or liability exists beyond any
minimum requirements imposed by law, even though defect, damage, or loss may be by
negligence or other act.
