Appendix

Limited warranty coverage

Warranty service is only available from within the country where the Products were

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 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.

Appendix

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.

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.

state to state or by jurisdiction.

this warranty may be different. Unless a specific Kodak warranty is communicated to

to which the receiver is connected; 4) consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for additional suggestions.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Where shielded
interface cables have been provided with the product or specified additional
components or accessories elsewhere defined to be used with the installation of the
product, they must be used in order to ensure compliance with FCC regulation.
