Warranty Information

Regulatory Information

25

Your 

Axiom

 is warranted for 24 months, limited parts 

and labor, but does not cover damage caused by alter-

ation, modification, neglect, accident or misuse.

  In the event you encounter problems with your 

Axiom 

detector, please read through this User’s Manual 

carefully to ensure the detector is not inoperable due 

to manual adjustments. Press and hold the power 

button for 5 seconds to return to the recommended 

factory settings.    

  You should also make certain you have:

  1. Checked your battery charge and connections.  

    A low battery is the most common cause of  

    detector “failure.”

  2. Contacted your dealer for help, particularly if you  

    are not familiar with the 

Axiom

 detector.

  In the event that repairs or warranty service are 

necessary for your 

Axiom

, contact the retail outlet 

where your detector was purchased. To avoid excessive 

shipping and import charges, do not attempt to return 

a Garrett product  to the factory in the United States. 

   Information on international warranty/repair needs 

can be found on the Garrett website: 

www.garrett.
