COBRA ELECTRONICS CORPORATION 

warrants that its Cobra

®

10 Band Ultra™

Radar/Laser Detectors, and the component 
parts thereof, will be free of defects in
workmanship and materials for period of one 
(1) year from the date of first consumer
purchase. This warranty may be enforced by 
the first consumer purchaser, provided that 
the product is utilized within the U.S.A.

Cobra

®

will, without charge, repair or replace, at its

option, defective 10 Band™ Radar/Laser Detectors,
products or component parts upon delivery to the
Cobra

®

Factory Service Department, accompanied 

by proof of the date of first consumer purchase,
such as a duplicated copy of a sales receipt.

You must pay any initial shipping charges
required to ship the product for warranty
service, but the return charges will be at
Cobra's expense, if the product is repaired 
or replaced under warranty.

This warranty gives you specific rights, and 
you may also have other rights which vary
from state to state.

Exclusions: This limited warranty does not apply;
1) to any product damaged by accident; 2) in
the event of misuse or abuse of the product or
as a result of unauthorized alterations or repairs; 
3) if the serial number has been altered,
defaced or removed; 4) if the owner of the
product resides outside the U.S.A. 

All implied warranties, including warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular
purpose are limited in duration to the length 
of this warranty.

Cobra

®

shall not be liable for any incidental, 

consequential or other damages; including,
without limitation, damages resulting from 
loss of use or cost of installation.

Some states do not allow limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts and/or do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental 
or consequential damages, so the above 
limitations may not apply to you.
