ranty regulations described below. If the product shows
any defects within the specified warranty period that are
not excluded from this warranty as described under § 5,

Warranty services will be furnished only if the product [1].
is accompanied by a copy of the original retail dealer’s
invoice. Any product deemed eligible for repair or
replacement under the terms of this warranty will be
repaired or replaced.
If the product needs to be modified or adapted in order
[2].
to comply with applicable technical or safety standards
on a national or local level, in any country which is
not the country for which the product was originally
developed and manufactured, this modification/adap-
tation shall not be considered a defect in materials or
workmanship. The warranty does not cover any such
modification/adaptation, irrespective of whether it was
carried out properly or not. Under the terms of this war-
ranty, BEHRINGER shall not be held responsible for any
cost resulting from such a modification/adaptation.
Free inspections and maintenance/repair work are
[3].
expressly excluded from this warranty, in particular, if
caused by improper handling of the product by the user.
This also applies to defects caused by normal wear and
tear, in particular, of faders, crossfaders, potentiometers,
keys/buttons, tubes, guitar strings, illuminants and
similar parts.
Damage/defects caused by the following conditions are
[4].
not covered by this warranty:
improper handling, neglect or failure to operate the •
unit in compliance with the instructions given in
BEHRINGER user or service manuals;
connection or operation of the unit in any way that
•
does not comply with the technical or safety regula-
tions applicable in the country where the product is
used;
damage/defects caused by force majeure or any other
•
condition that is beyond the control of BEHRINGER.
Any repair or opening of the unit carried out by [5].
unauthorized personnel (user included) will void the
warranty.
If an inspection of the product by BEHRINGER shows that
[6].
the defect in question is not covered by the warranty,
the inspection costs are payable by the customer.
Products which do not meet the terms of this warranty
[7].
will be repaired exclusively at the buyer’s expense.
BEHRINGER will inform the buyer of any such circum-
stance. If the buyer fails to submit a written repair order
within 6 weeks after notification, BEHRINGER will return
the unit C.O.D. with a separate invoice for freight and
packing. Such costs will also be invoiced separately
when the buyer has sent in a written repair order.
Warranty transferability § 6
This warranty is extended exclusively to the original buyer
(customer of retail dealer) and is not transferable to anyone
who may subsequently purchase this product. No other per-
son (retail dealer, etc.) shall be entitled to give any warranty
promise on behalf of BEHRINGER.
Claim for damage § 7
Failure of BEHRINGER to provide proper warranty service shall
not entitle the buyer to claim (consequential) damages. In
no event shall the liability of BEHRINGER exceed the invoiced
value of the product.
