forth below. Under this Limited Warranty, SONY will, at its option, (i) repair the product using new or
refurbished parts or (ii) replace the product with a new or refurbished product. “Refurbished” means
a product or part that has been returned to its original specifications. These are Your exclusive
remedies. SONY does not warrant that the operation of the product will be uninterrupted or error-free.
Term: Eighteen (18) months from the original date of purchase of the product (or ninety (90) days

any transfer of this product does not extend the term. A copy of the dated receipt or bill of sale
from the original end user purchase is required to determine coverage. Online auction
confirmations are not accepted for warranty verification.
Product Coverage: Only the hardware components packaged with the Product are covered. Technical
assistance for hardware or software usage and any software products are not covered. Any software
is provided “AS IS” unless expressly provided for in any enclosed software Limited Warranty. When
a product or part is exchanged, the original item becomes SONY’s property. Any replacement product
provided under this limited warranty may vary in the color and/or cosmetic design from the original
product and may not include any original engraving or similar customization.

service. SONY will not reimburse You for service performed by others. Unless otherwise instructed by

OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE EXCLUDED AND

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or allow
limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply
to You. This Limited Warranty gives You specific legal rights and You may have other rights which vary
from state to state.
