only and is non-transferable.

3.  DigiTech liability under this warranty is limited to repairing or replacing defective materials that show evidence of defect,

other than a certified DigiTech technician or, if the product is used with AC voltages outside of the range suggested by the 
manufacturer.

7.  The foregoing is in lieu of all other warranties, expressed or implied, and DigiTech neither assumes nor authorizes any person to 

assume any obligation or liability in connection with the sale of this product. In no event shall DigiTech or its dealers be liable for 
special or consequential damages or from any delay in the performance of this warranty due to causes beyond their control.
