50 Limited Warranty
VIDEO CASSETTE RECORDER or PLAYER
90 days Free Exchange / 91 days–One Year Reduced-Cost Exchange
WHO IS COVERED?
You must have proof of the date of purchase to exchange
your product. A sales receipt or other document showing
the date that you purchased the product is considered such
proof.
WHAT IS COVERED?
Warranty coverage begins the day you buy your product. For
90 days thereafter, you may exchange the defective product
for a new product at the store from which it was purchased
or through Philips. This exchange is made at no cost to you.
From 91 days to one year from the date of purchase, you must
follow the exchange procedures set out on the next page.
For an exchange during this warranty period you must pay
$29.95 (plus your local sales tax) for a new or renewed
product. This reduced-cost exchange ends one year after the
date of purchase.
The replacement product is covered only for the warranty
period of the original product. When the warranty on the
original product expires, the warranty on all replaced prod-
ucts also expires.
WHAT IS EXCLUDED?
Your warranty does not cover:
•
labor charges for installation or setup of the product,
adjustment of customer controls on the product, and
installation or repair of antenna systems outside of the
product.
•
product repair and/or part replacement because of mis-
use, accident, unauthorized repair or other cause not
within the control of Philips Consumer Electronics.
•
reception problems caused by signal conditions or cable
or antenna systems outside the product.
•
a product that requires modification or adaptation to
enable it to operate in any country other than the coun-
try for which it was designed, manufactured, approved
and/or authorized, or repair of products damaged by
these modifications.
•
incidental or consequential damages resulting from the
product. (Some states do not allow the exclusion of inci-
dental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion
may not apply to you. This includes, but is not limited to,
prerecorded material, whether copyrighted or not copy-
righted.)
•
damage caused by the use of non-VHS tapes or tapes
that have not been tested and labeled for use in two,
four, six, and eight hour VHS recorders.
•
a product that is used for commercial or institutional
purposes (including but not limited to rental purposes).
WHERE IS EXCHANGE AVAILABLE?
Warranty exchange is available in all countries where the
product is officially distributed by Philips Consumer
Electronics. In countries where Philips Consumer Electronics
does not distribute the product, the local Philips service
organization will attempt to exchange the product, although
there may be a delay if the appropriate product is not readily
available.
MAKE SURE YOU KEEP...
Please keep your sales receipt or other document showing
proof of date of purchase. Attach it to the owner’s manual

ing material in case you need to return your product.
BEFORE EXCHANGING THE PRODUCT...
