 THE WARRANTY BELOW REPLACES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED 

OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF 
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS, OR ADEQUACY FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR 
USE. TELEDYNE LECROY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, 
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE. THE 
CUSTOMER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TRANSPORTATION AND INSURANCE 
CHARGES FOR THE RETURN OF PRODUCTS TO THE SERVICE FACILITY. 
TELEDYNE LECROY WILL RETURN ALL PRODUCTS UNDER WARRANTY WITH 
TRANSPORT PREPAID.

The product is warranted for normal use and operation, within 

specifications, for a period of three years from shipment. Teledyne LeCroy 

will either repair or, at our option, replace any product returned to one of 

our authorized service centers within this period. However, in order to do 

this we must first examine the product and find that it is defective due to 

workmanship or materials and not due to misuse, neglect, accident, or 

abnormal conditions or operation. 
Teledyne LeCroy shall not be responsible for any defect, damage, 

or failure caused by any of the following: a) attempted repairs or 

installations by personnel other than Teledyne LeCroy representatives; b) 

improper connection to incompatible equipment; or c) for any damage 

or malfunction caused by the use of non-Teledyne LeCroy supplies. 

Furthermore, Teledyne LeCroy shall not be obligated to service a product 

that has been modified or integrated where the modification or integration 

increases the task duration or difficulty of servicing the instrument. Spare 

and replacement parts, and repairs, all have a 90-day warranty.
The instrument's firmware has been thoroughly tested and is presumed 

to be functional. Nevertheless, it is supplied without warranty of any kind 

covering detailed performance. Products not made by Teledyne LeCroy 

are covered solely by the original manufacturer's warranty.
