The JET Group makes every effort to 
assure that its products meet high 
quality and durability standards and 
warrants to the original retail 
consumer/purchaser of our products 
that each product be free from defects 
in materials and workmanship as 
follows: 

2 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY ON 
ALL PRODUCTS UNLESS 
SPECIFIED OTHERWISE.  

This Warranty does not apply to 
defects due to directly or indirectly 
misuse, abuse, negligence or 
accidents, normal wear-and-tear, 
repair or alterations outside our 
facilities, or to a lack of maintenance. 

The Jet group limits all implied 
warranties to the period specified 
above, from the date the product was 
purchased at retail. 

To take advantage of this warranty, 
the product or part must be returned 
for examination, postage prepaid, to 
an authorized repair station 
designated by our office. 
Proof of purchase date and an 
explanation of the complaint must 
accompany the merchandise. 

If our inspection discloses a defect, 
we will either repair or replace the 
product, or refund the purchase price 
if we cannot readily and quickly 
provide a repair or replacement, if you 
are willing to accept a refund. 

We will return repaired product or 
replacement at JET’S expense, but if 
it is determined there is no defect, or 
that the defect resulted from causes 
not within the scope of JET’S 
warranty, then the user must bear the 
cost of storing and returning the 
product. 

The JET Group reserves the right to
