CONSUMER WARRANTY INFORMATION
Worldwide, Guillemot Corporation S.A., whose registered office is located at Place du Granier, B.P.
97143, 35571 Chantepie, France (hereinafter “Guillemot”) warrants to the consumer that this
Thrustmaster product shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship, for a warranty period
which corresponds to the time limit to bring an action for conformity with respect to this product. In
the countries of the European Union, this corresponds to a period of two (2) years from delivery of
the Thrustmaster product. In other countries, the warranty period corresponds to the time limit to
bring an action for conformity with respect to the Thrustmaster product according to applicable laws
of the country in which the consumer was domiciled on the date of purchase of the Thrustmaster
product (if no such action exists in the corresponding country, then the warranty period shall be one
(1) year from the original date of purchase of the Thrustmaster product).
Notwithstanding the above, rechargeable batteries are covered by a warranty period of six (6)
months from the date of original purchase.
Should the product appear to be defective during the warranty period, immediately contact
Technical Support, who will indicate the procedure to follow. If the defect is confirmed, the product
must be returned to its place of purchase (or any other location indicated by Technical Support).
Within the context of this warranty, the consumer’s defective product shall, at Technical Support’s
option, be either replaced or returned to working order. If, during the warranty period, the
Thrustmaster product is subject to such reconditioning, any period of at least seven (7) days during
which the product is out of use shall be added to the remaining warranty period (this period runs
from the date of the consumer’s request for intervention or from the date on which the product in
question is made available for reconditioning, if the date on which the product is made available for
reconditioning is subsequent to the date of the request for intervention). If permitted under
applicable law, the full liability of Guillemot and its subsidiaries (including for consequential
damages) is limited to the return to working order or the replacement of the Thrustmaster product. If
permitted under applicable law, Guillemot disclaims all warranties of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose.
This warranty shall not apply: (1) if the product has been modified, opened, altered, or has suffered
damage as a result of inappropriate or abusive use, negligence, an accident, normal wear, or any
other cause unrelated to a material or manufacturing defect (including, but not limited to, combining
the Thrustmaster product with any unsuitable element, including in particular power supplies,
rechargeable batteries, chargers, or any other elements not supplied by Guillemot for this product);
(2) if the product has been used for any use other than home use, including for professional or
commercial purposes (game rooms, training, competitions, for example); (3) in the event of failure to
comply with the instructions provided by Technical Support; (4) to software, said software being
subject to a specific warranty; (5) to consumables (elements to be replaced over the product’s
lifespan: disposable batteries, audio headset or headphone ear pads, for example); (6) to
accessories (cables, cases, pouches, bags, wrist-straps, for example); (7) if the product was sold at
public auction.
This warranty is nontransferable.
The consumer’s legal rights with respect to laws applicable to the sale of consumer goods in his or
her country are not affected by this warranty.
