D. Warranty Information

NOTE

: The original purchaser is automatically registered. If you are not the original

purchaser, please consult the OSS website: www.oceanicss.com to validate your warranty and to

update warranty registration information within 15 days of transfer. All warranty transactions must

be accompanied by proof of original purchase. Be sure to save your sales receipt and present it

whenever you return your FRV for warranty service or when selling your FRV to another person.

The receipt contains the FRV’s serial number.

Limited Lifetime Warranty Limitations and Exclusions: The Warranty Is Subject to the Fol-

lowing Limitations and Exclusions:

1. Limited 5-year Warranty (Excludes Batteries and the Vest Soft Parts)

Your FRV must be used in accordance with the FRV User Manual. The Warranty does not apply

to defects or damage caused by: (i) misuse, neglect or improper or rough handling (including

punctures, bending, compressing or dropping of the FRV); (ii) any use of the FRV not in

accordance with the FRV User Manual; (iii) using the FRV with or connecting the FRV to any

product, accessory software and/or service not manufactured, supplied or approved by OSS ;

(iv) normal wear and tear; or (v) accidents, fire, power changes, other hazards, acts of God and

other causes beyond the reasonable control of OSS . Cosmetic damage(s), such as scratches,

nicks and fraying are not covered under warranty except when the product is new, out of the

original packaging. This warranty does not extend to the FRV or its accessories used for rental,

commercial or military purposes. The Warranty will be void if: (i) the FRV has been opened,

modified or repaired by any person other than OSS ; (ii) the FRV’s serial numbers have been

removed, erased, defaced or altered in any way or is illegible, as determined by OSS in its sole

discretion; or (iii) the FRV has been exposed to chemical products, including, but not limited to,

solvents and insect repellents; (iv) This product has been used in excess of 100 meters (328 feet)

or in unmanned submersions including, but not limited to, submersions in an unmanned vehicle or

on a rope, (v) damaged by accidents, fire, power changes, other hazards, acts of God and other

causes beyond the reasonable control of OSS. Only the FRV remote communicator, the actuator

and the vest have been designed for underwater use. Never dive with the charger connected to

the FRV. Doing so will damage the accessories and/or the FRV, and will also void the Warranty.

Warranty coverage on your FRV covers the product for 5 years subject to the conditions listed

above and utilizes a prorated replacement policy below. OSS warrants to the purchaser for 5

years, from the date of shipping, that the product will be free from defects in materials and work-

manship, provided that it is subjected to normal use, proper care and prescribed service subject

to the limitations listed above. Some components may be replaced with another component with

a different serial number. The replacement component will be either completely re-manufactured

and tested like new, or at our option, we will make the replacement with new components.
