LIMITED WARRANTY

Five Year

COMMAND LIGHT

 warrants that the equipment is free from defects in materials and workmanship 

when used and operated for a period of five years. The responsibility of 

COMMAND LIGHT

 under 

this limited warranty is limited to the repair and replacement of any parts found defective. Parts 

must be returned to 

COMMAND LIGHT

 at 3842 Redman Drive, Ft Collins, Colorado 80524 with 

transportation charges prepaid (C.O.D. shipments will not be accepted).

Prior to returning defective parts to

in writing to

 COMMAND LIGHT

 at the above address indicating the model number, serial number 

and type of defect. No parts or equipment will be received by

 COMMAND LIGHT

 for repair or 

replacement under this warranty without specific written authority from it in advance.

Any parts damaged by improper installation, overloading, abuse or accident of any type or cause are not 

covered by this warranty.

All equipment manufactured by us is tested before leaving our plant, and is shipped in good working 

order and condition. We therefore extend to the original purchasers the following Limited Warranty for 

the period of five years from the original date of purchase:

1.  This warranty does not apply to defects caused by accident, misuse, neglect, or wear and tear, nor 

can we be held responsible for incidental and consequential expense and loss, nor does this warranty 

apply to equipment where alterations have been executed without our knowledge or consent. These 

conditions are readily discernible when the equipment is returned to us for inspection.

2.  On all component parts not manufactured by 

COMMAND LIGHT,

 their warranty is to the extent that 

the manufacturer of such component warrants them to 

COMMAND LIGHT

, if at all. Look in your 

local business telephone directory for the nearest repair station for the brand of parts you have or 

write to us for the address.

3.  If equipment received has been damaged in transit, a claim should be made against the carrier within 

three days, as we assume no responsibility for such damage.

4.  Any service other than our Authorized Service voids this warranty.

5.  This warranty is in lieu of and is intended to exclude all other warranties, express or implied, oral or 

written, including any warranties of MERCHANTIBILITY or FITNESS for a particular purpose.

6.  Travel time paid at a maximum of 50% and only if pre-approved.
