be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled

Chamberlain’s warranty
Chamberlain warrants to the original purchaser of the Merlin® Swing Gate Opener (Unit) that all parts of the Unit, other than remote controlled transmitters and accessories, globes and batteries, are free from
defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 24 months from the date of purchase when installed in a residential premise with a residential specified gate that is designed for the sole purpose of domestic
domicile. Chamberlain warrants that remote controlled transmitters and accessories included with the Unit are free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 12 months from the date of purchase.
Batteries and globes are not covered under the Chamberlain Limited Warranty.
It is a condition of this Chamberlain Limited Warranty that the Unit is sold, installed and serviced by a Professional Dealer appointed by Chamberlain. A Merlin® branded gate opener purchased over the internet
and installed by a person other than a Professional Dealer will not be covered by this Chamberlain Limited Warranty.
During the applicable Chamberlain Limited Warranty period, if you are concerned that the Unit may be defective, for prompt on-site service call the Professional Dealer that sold/installed the opener, or our service
centre on the toll free number below and a Chamberlain technician will diagnose the problem and arrange for this to be rectified. Once the problem has been diagnosed, subject to your rights under the Australian
Consumer Law with respect to major failures, Chamberlain or
its Professional Dealer will provide you with:
1. repairs to the Unit
or
2. a replacement Unit.
Repairs and replacement parts provided under this Chamberlain Limited Warranty are provided free of charge and are warranted for the remaining portion of the original warranty period.
This Chamberlain Limited Warranty provides benefits which are in addition to your other rights and remedies as a consumer.

Warranty, we may, subject to your other rights and remedies as a consumer, charge you a fee to repair, replace and/or return the Unit to you. This Chamberlain Limited Warranty does not cover any failure of, or defect in,
the Unit due to:
