Brother
®
One Year Limited Warranty and Replacement Service
(This warranty is valid only within the United States.)
91
st
day to 1 year:
If the problem reported concerning your Machine is
covered by this warranty and if you first reported the
problem after 90 days, but before 1 year from the date
of original purchase, Brother will furnish, free of
charge (excluding labor charges), replacement part(s)
for those part(s) of the Machine determined by Brother
or its Authorized Service Center to be defective.
You
will be responsible for all labor charges associated
with repairs made after the first 90 days from original
purchase.
After 90 days from the original purchase
date, accompanying Consumable and Accessory
Items are no longer covered by this warranty. If the
Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and
Accessory Item(s) are not covered by this warranty
(either stage), you will be charged for shipping the
Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and
Accessory Item(s) back to you
.
The foregoing are your sole (i.e., only) and
exclusive remedies under this warranty.
What happens when Brother elects to replace your
Machine:
If you have delivered the Machine to an Authorized
Service Center, the Authorized Service Center will
provide you with a replacement Machine after
receiving one from Brother. If you are dealing directly
with Brother, Brother will send to you a replacement
Machine, after you supply the required proof of
purchase information, together with the Machine that
Brother agreed to replace. You are then expected to
pack the Machine that Brother agreed to replace in the
package from the replacement Machine and return it
to Brother using the air bill supplied by Brother in
accordance with the instructions provided by Brother.
Since you will be in possession of two machines,
Brother will require that you provide a valid major
credit card number. Brother will issue a hold against
the credit card account number that you provide until
Brother receives your original Product and determines
that your original Product is entitled to warranty
coverage. Your credit card will be charged up to the
cost of a new Product only if: (i) you do not return your
original Product to Brother within five (5) business
days; (ii) the problems of your original Product are not
covered by the limited warranty; (iii) the proper
packaging instructions are not followed and has
caused damage to the product; or (iv) the warranty
period on your original Product has expired or has not
been sufficiently validated with a copy of the proof of
purchase (bill of sale). The replacement Machine you
receive (even if refurbished or remanufactured) will be
covered by the balance of the limited warranty period
remaining on the original Product, plus an additional
thirty (30) days. You will keep the replacement
Machine that is sent to you and your original Machine
shall become the property of Brother.
Retain your
original accessory items and a copy of the return air
bill, signed by the courier.
Limitations:
Brother is not responsible for damage to or loss of
any equipment, media, programs or data related to
the use of this Product. Except for that repair or
replacement as described above, Brother shall not
be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental or
consequential damages or specific relief. Because
some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation
of consequential or incidental damages, the above
limitation may not apply to you.
