claim form (call Furman at (707) 763-1010 to obtain the
form). Furman reserves the right to review the damaged
Furman product, the damaged connected equipment, and
the site where the damage occurred. All cost of shipping
damaged equipment to Furman for inspection shall be
borne solely by the Purchaser. Damaged equipment must
remain available for inspection until the claim is fi nalized.
The Connected Equipment Warranty is also in effect for
a period of fi ve years unless the Purchaser does not
complete the warranty registration within fi fteen days from
date of purchase, at which time, the Connected Equipment
Warranty period is also reduced to one year from the date
of purchase.
All warranties contained herein are null and void if: the
Furman Surge Protector in use during the occurrence
is not provided to Furman for inspection upon Furman’s
request at the sole expense of the Purchaser, Furman
determines that the Furman Surge Protector has been
opened, improperly installed, altered in any way or
tampered with, Furman determines that the damage did
not result from the Occurrence or that no Occurrence
in fact took place or Furman determines that the
connected equipment was not used under normal
operating conditions or in accordance with Manufacturer’s
instructions for the connected equipment. All Furman
Surge Protectors must be plugged directly into a properly
wired AC power line with a protective ground and must
not be “daisy-chained” together in serial fashion with other
power strips, UPS’s, other surge protectors, three-to-two-
prong adapters, or extension cords. Any such installation
voids this warranty. The Furman warranty only protects
against damage to properly connected equipment where
Furman has determined, at its sole discretion, that the
damage resulted from an Occurrence and does not
protect against acts of God (other than lightning) such as
fl ood, earthquake, war, terrorism, vandalism, theft, normal-
use wear and tear, erosion, depletion, obsolescence,
abuse, damage due to low-voltage disturbances (i.e.
brownouts or sags), non-authorized program, or system
equipment modifi cation or alteration. Do not use this
product in anyway with a generator, heater, sump pump,
water-related device, life support device, medical device,
automobile, motorcycle, or golf-cart battery charger. To
be used indoors only and in dry areas. All warranties
contained herein are null and void if used in anyway with
any of the aforementioned devices.

WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING
BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. Furman does not warrant against damages
or defects arising out of improper or abnormal use or
handling of the product; against defects or damages
arising from improper installation, against defects in
products or components not manufactured by Furman,
or against damages resulting from such non-Furman
made products or components. This warranty shall be
cancelable by Furman at its sole discretion if the product
is modifi ed in any way without written authorization from
Furman. This warranty also does not apply to products
upon which repairs have been affected or attempted by
persons other than pursuant to written authorization by
Furman.
THIS WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE. The sole and
exclusive obligation of Furman shall be to repair or
replace the defective product in the manner and for the
period provided above. Furman shall not have any other
obligation with respect to this product or any part thereof,
whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise.
Under no circumstances, whether based on this Limited
Warranty or otherwise, shall Furman be liable for incidental,
special, or consequential damages. Furman’s employees
or representatives’ ORAL OR OTHER WRITTEN
STATEMENTS DO NOT CONSTITUTE WARRANTIES,
shall not be relied upon by purchaser, and are not a part of
the contract for sale or this limited warranty. This Limited
Warranty states the entire obligation of Furman with
respect to the product. If any part of this Limited Warranty
is determined to be void or illegal, the remainder shall
remain in full force and effect.
Warranty claims should be accompanied by a copy of the
original purchase invoice showing the date of purchase (if
a Warranty Registration Card was mailed in at the time of
purchase or if the product was registered on-line, this is
not necessary). Before returning any equipment for repair,
please be sure it is adequately packed and cushioned
against damage in shipment, and that it is insured.
