obligation under its warranty is limited in accordance with the periods of time and all other conditions 
stated in all provisions of this warranty. 
This warranty applies only to defects in material and workmanship in products manufactured by ASC. ASC 
makes no warranty whatsoever concerning products or accessories not of its manufacture. Repair, or at 
ASC’s option, replacement of the ASC products or defective parts therein shall be the sole and exclusive 
remedy for all valid warranty claims.

purchaser and extend for the stated period following the date of shipment. Upon beginning of the applicable 
ASC warranty period, all customers’ remedies shall be governed by the terms stated or referenced in this 
warranty. In-warranty repaired or replacement products or parts are warranted only for the remaining 
portion of the original warranty period applicable to the repaired or replaced products or parts. Repair or 
replacement of products or parts under warranty does not extend the original warranty period.

not covered

1. Any loss, damage and/or malfunction relating in any way to shipping, storage, accident, abuse,

than seven (7) working days before the first date on which ASC receives a notice of failure. Under no 
circumstances shall any warranty exceed the period stated above unless expressly agreed to in writing by 
ASC.

not limited to warranties of merchantability and of fitness for particular purpose, use, or applications, and 
all other obligations or liabilities on the part of ASC, unless such other warranties, obligations, or liabilities 
are expressly agreed to in writing by ASC. All obligations of ASC under this warranty shall cease in the 
event its products or parts thereof have been subjected to accident, abuse, alteration, misuse or neglect, or 
which have not been operated and maintained in accordance with proper operating instructions. In no event 
shall ASC be liable for Incidental, consequential, special or resulting loss or damage of any kind howsoever 
caused. ASC’s liability for damages shall not exceed the payment, if any, received by ASC for the unit or 
product or service furnished or to be furnished, as the case may be, which is the subject of claim or dispute. 
Statements made by any person, including representatives of ASC, which are inconsistent or in conflict 
with the terms of this warranty, shall not be binding upon ASC unless reduced to writing and approved by
