For any product expressly covered under this warranty, Univentor is liable only to the extent
of replacement or repair of the defective items. Univentor shall not be liable for any

refuses all unauthorised return shipments.

specific difficulties, an appropriate course of action will be described and the problem
resolved accordingly. Do not return any products for service until a RETURN
AUTHORISATION NUMBER (RA#) has been obtained. The RA# identifies you as the
sender and describes in full detail the problems you have.Turnaround time for service can
be quoted to you at the time your RA# is issued, although we can not determine the actual
amount of service required until we have received your unit and diagnosed the problem.
