Who is Covered?
This warranty extends only to the first consumer purchaser, and
is not transferable.
What will MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS, INC. do?
Motorola Solutions, Inc., at its option, will at no charge repair,
replace or refund the purchase price of any Products or
Accessories that do not conform to this warranty. We may use
functionally equivalent reconditioned/ refurbished/ pre-owned or
new Products or Accessories.
What Other Limitations Are There?
Any Implied Warranties, Including Without Limitation
The implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a
particular purpose, shall be limited to the duration of this limited
warranty, otherwise the repair, replacement, or refund as
provided under this express limited warranty is the exclusive
remedy of the consumers, and is provided in lieu of all other
warranties, express or implied. In no event shall Motorola
Solutions be liable, whether in contract or tort (including
negligence) for damages in excess of the purchase price of the
product or accessory, or for any indirect, incidental, special or
consequential damages of any kind, or loss of revenue or
profits, loss of business, loss of information or other financial
loss arising out of or in connection with the ability or inability to
use the products or accessories to the full extent these
damages may be disclaimed by law.
Some states and jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or
exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, or limitation
on the length of an implied warranty, so the above limitations or
exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that
vary from state to state or from one jurisdiction to another.
