Appendix C:  Warranty and Return 
Information 

You may return the CFFA3000 Interface board for any reason within 30 days of receiving it. This 
should allow you enough time to evaluate the compatibility with your system. I guarantee your 
CFFA3000 Interface board to be free of defects under normal usage for a period of one year from 
the date you receive the product. This means that if the board fails, and you have treated it properly, 
I will repair, replace, or refund your money at my discretion, to be determined by me on a case-by-
case basis. 

If you want to return the product under warranty, please contact me via E-mail at [email protected] to 
discuss return arrangements. Include your name and the serial number from the sticker on the back 
of the board. It is your responsibility to get the product you are returning back to my door. I will not 
be responsible for lost shipments. Please choose the shipping method and insurance that you deem 
necessary.
