accidental mistakes in installation.  To protect your investment in Digital plus 
products, Lenz GmbH offers a very aggressive 10 year Limited Warranty.  

This warranty is not valid if the user has altered, intentionally misused the Digital 
Plus product, or removed the product's protection, for example the heat shrink from

repairs or replacements. Should the user desire to alter a Digital Plus Product, they 
should contact Lenz GmbH for prior authorization.

discretion.  The user must pay for shipping to an authorized Lenz GmbH warranty 
center.  

Year 2 and 3:

  A full replacement for any item will be provided that has failed due 

to manufacturer defects.  If the failure was caused by accidental user installation or 
use, a minimal service charge may be imposed.  Should the item no longer be 
produced and the item is not repairable, a similar item will be substituted at the 
manufacturer’s discretion.  The user must pay shipping to and from the authorized
