Optional CoolSNAP Camera System Service Contract 

The optional CoolSNAP Camera System Service Contract provides extended coverage for the CoolSNAP 
camera system. All terms and conditions listed in the CoolSNAP Camera System Warranty, including those 
pertaining to shipping costs and appropriate system use, apply to the CoolSNAP Camera System Service 
Contract. 

The Service Contract also guarantees that Roper Scientific shall ship a complete replacement CoolSNAP 
camera system within forty-eight (48) hours of receiving notification of a CoolSNAP camera system defect. 
All components of the defective CoolSNAP camera system must be returned to Roper Scientific. Shipment 
of these components should not be made without prior authorization by Roper Scientific. 

When purchased within two (2) months of the date listed on the packing slip shipped with the original 
equipment, the Service Contract is valid for a period of twenty-seven (27) months from the packing slip 
date. 

This period comprises the initial CoolSNAP Camera System Warranty period of twelve (12) months, the 
CoolSNAP Camera System Service Contract period of twelve (12) months, and an additional three (3) 
months of free coverage. 

When purchased prior to the lapse of the CoolSNAP Camera System Warranty or an active CoolSNAP 
Camera System Service Contract, the CoolSNAP Camera System Service Contract is valid for twelve (12) 
months beyond the lapse date of the Camera System Warranty or current Service Contract. 

The CoolSNAP Camera System Service Contract can be renewed repeatedly. If the renewal occurs outside 
of a period covered by Warranty or Service Contract, Roper Scientific may, at its sole discretion, require an 
inspection of the camera system as a condition of consent to place it under Service Contract.
