LIMITED WARRANTY
LIMITED WARRANTY:
This Limited Warranty provided by MicroTech Hearing Instruments (“MicroTech”), to
you, the original purchaser of a MicroTech hearing instrument, covers your new
hearing instrument when sold by a hearing professional authorized by MicroTech .
The duration of this Limited Warranty begins when you first take delivery of your
hearing instrument from an authorized hearing professional and ends twenty-four
(24) months later (“warranty period”) .
LIMITATION ON DURATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES:
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, ARISING BY WAY OF STATE LAW, INCLUDING ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND/OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE
WARRANTY PERIOD . There is no warranty of any nature made by MicroTech beyond
this Limited Warranty . No person has authority to enlarge, amend, or modify this
Limited Warranty . MicroTech is not responsible for any undertaking, representation,
or warranty (written, express, or implied) made by any hearing professional or other
person beyond those expressly set forth in this Limited Warranty .
Some States do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the
above limitation may not apply to you .
WHAT THIS LIMITED WARRANTY COVERS:
This Limited Warranty covers only a “defect” in the workmanship performed and/or
materials used to manufacture your hearing instrument . “Defect” means the failure
of the workmanship performed and/or materials used to conform the hearing
instrument to MicroTech’s design and manufacturing specifications and tolerances .
Your hearing professional may have issued a warranty or service plan that goes
beyond the provisions of this Limited Warranty . Please contact him or her for further
information .
MicroTech will either replace the hearing instrument or repair any covered defect in
your hearing instrument, provided that you deliver your hearing instrument to one of
MicroTech’s authorized hearing professionals and notify the hearing professional of
the defect during the warranty period and within thirty (30) days of discovering the
defect . There will be no cost to you for MicroTech’s repair or replacement of the
instrument itself, but the hearing professional may charge a fee for services he or she
provides . Performance of warranty repairs on your hearing instrument shall not
extend the duration of the warranty period . Any repairs performed on your hearing
instrument after the warranty period has expired shall be considered “good will”
repairs, which shall not alter the terms of this Limited Warranty .
HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE:
Deliver your hearing instrument (at your expense) to the MicroTech authorized
hearing professional from whom you purchased it . If that professional is unavailable,
visit www .starkey .com or call the toll-free telephone number on the back of the
Operations Manual to locate another authorized MicroTech hearing professional .
WHAT THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER:
Batteries, earmolds, accessories, or damage to your hearing instrument caused by
misuse or neglect, accident, unauthorized alteration, or failure to provide reasonable
and necessary maintenance and cleaning .
DISCLAIMER OF CONSEQUENTIAL AND INCIDENTAL DAMAGES:
THE PURCHASER SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER FROM STARKEY ANY
CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY DEFECT
IN THE HEARING INSTRUMENT, INCLUDING BY WAY OF EXAMPLE ONLY,
EXPENSES TO DELIVER THE HEARING INSTRUMENT TO AN AUTHORIZED
HEARING PROFESSIONAL, HOTEL ROOMS, OR LOST WAGES . THIS EXCLUSION
AND DISCLAIMER OF CONSEQUENTIAL AND INCIDENTAL DAMAGES SHALL BE
DEEMED INDEPENDENT OF, AND SHALL SURVIVE, ANY FAILURE OF THE
ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY .
Some States do not allow the exclusion or limitation of consequential or incidental
damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to you .
YOUR LEGAL REMEDIES:
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT “EXTEND TO FUTURE PERFORMANCE .”
ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES MAY AND SHALL NOT BE COMMENCED MORE THAN 90 DAYS
AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD . THE PERFORMANCE OF
REPAIRS SHALL NOT SUSPEND THIS LIMITATIONS PERIOD FROM EXPIRING .
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL STARKEY BE OBLIGATED TO REFUND ALL
OR ANY PART OF THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE HEARING INSTRUMENT . Some
States do not allow the reduction in the limitation period, so the above reduction in
the limitation period may not apply to you .
This warranty gives you specific legal rights . You may also have other rights which
vary from State to State .
This warranty is valid only in the United States .
