Limited 1 Year Warranty

iHome Products, a division of SDI Technologies Inc. (hereafter referred to as SDI), warrants this product to be free from defects in 

workmanship and materials, under normal use and conditions, for a period of one (1) year from the date of original purchase.

Should this product fail to function in a satisfactory manner, it is best to first return it to the store where it was originally purchased. 

Should this fail to resolve the matter and service still be required by reason of any defect or malfunction during the warranty 

period, SDI will repair or, at its discretion, replace this product without charge. This decision is subject to verification of the defect 

or malfunction upon delivery of this product to the Factory Service Center authorized by SDI Customer Service. The product must 

include proof of purchase, including date of purchase. An out-of-warranty fee for service will be charged for units that are 

received without proof of purchase.

Before returning this product for service, please first replace the batteries (if applicable) with fresh ones, as exhausted or defective

If service is still required:

1. Call SDI Customer Service at 1-800-288-2792 for Return Authorization and for the address of the Factory Service Center. 

2. Remove the batteries (if applicable) and pack the unit in a well padded, heavy corrugated box. SDI is not responsible for 

damage that occurs during shipping to the Factory Service Center.

3. Enclose a photocopy of your sales receipt, credit card statement, or other proof of the date of purchase, if within the warranty 

period. Also include your name and address information, a brief description for why the unit is being returned, and the return 

authorization number. No unit can be processed without a return authorization  number.

4. Write the return authorization number on the side of the shipping package and send the unit prepaid and insured to the 

Factory Service Center address authorized by SDI Customer Service.
