Limited 1 Year Warranty

Warranty Registration at www.zBoost.com

zBoost warrants every zBoost product to be free from defects in material and workmanship under 

normal use for the warranty period of one year. 

Who Is Covered?

You must have proof of purchase to receive warranty service. A sales receipt or other 

documentation showing the product purchased and the purchase date is considered proof of 

purchase. This limited warranty extends only to the original consumer purchaser or any person 

receiving the product as a gift from the original consumer purchaser and to no other purchaser or 

transferee. 

What is Covered?

Warranty coverage begins the day you purchase the product. For one year from the original 

date, the zBoost Cell Phone Signal Booster will be repaired or replaced with a new, repaired, 

refurbished or comparable product (whichever is deemed necessary by zBoost) if it becomes 

defective or inoperative. The exchange will be made without charge to you for parts and labor. You 

will be responsible for the cost of shipping to the location designated by zBoost. If zBoost cannot 

reasonably repair or replace the unit then zBoost may, at its sole discretion, refund the price you 

paid for the product or the price of the unit. 

All products, including replacement products, are covered only for the original warranty period. 

When the warranty on the original product expires, the warranty on the replacement product also 

expires.

What is Excluded?

Your warranty does NOT cover:

• 

Labor charges for set up of the unit.

• 

Product replacement because of misuse, accident, lightning damage, unauthorized repair or 

other cause not within the control of zBoost.

• 

Incidental or consequential damages resulting from the product. Some states do not allow 

the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply 

to you.

• 

Any modifications or other changes to the product, including but not limited to software or 

hardware modifications in any way other than as expressly authorized by zBoost  will void 

this limited warranty.

• 

Product that has been modified or adapted to enable it to operate in any country other than 

the country for which it was designed, manufactured, approved and/or authorized, or repair 

of products damaged by these modifications.

All zBoost products that are packaged with other zBoost accessory products are intended for resale 

and use as a single unit, and such product kits are required to be sold to the end user or subsequent 

reseller as packaged. The “de-kitting” and sale as a standalone product of any one or more components 

of such a product kit is in violation of zBoost’ warranty. No “de-kitted” product will be eligible for return for 

any reason. The sale of separate, not-kitted cable, antennas and other accessories is allowed and fully 

warranted
