place other methods of navigation. Purchaser is
advised to perform careful position charting and use

1. ASHTECH WARRANTY
Ashtech warrants their GPS receivers and hardware
accessories to be free of defects in material and
workmanship and will conform to our published
specifications for the product for a period of one year
from the date of original purchase or such longer pe-
riod as required by law. THIS WARRANTY APPLIES
ONLY TO THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER OF THIS
PRODUCT.
In the event of a defect, Ashtech will, at its option,
repair or replace the hardware product with no charge
to the purchaser for parts or labor. The repaired or re-
placed product will be warranted for 90 days from
the date of return shipment, or for the balance of the
original warranty, whichever is longer. Ashtech war-
rants that software products or software included in
hardware products will be free from defects in the
media for a period of 30 days from the date of ship-
ment and will substantially conform to the then-cur-
rent user documentation provided with the software
(including updates thereto). Ashtech's sole obliga-
tion shall be the correction or replacement of the me-
dia or the software so that it will substantially
conform to the then- current user documentation.
Ashtech does not warrant the software will meet pur-
chaser's requirements or that its operation will be un-
interrupted, error-free or virus-free. Purchaser
assumes the entire risk of using the software.
2. PURCHASER'S REMEDY
PURCHASER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS
WRITTEN WARRANTY OR ANY IMPLIED WARRAN-
TY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE REPAIR OR RE-
PLACEMENT, AT ASHTECH'S OPTION, OF ANY
DEFECTIVE PART OF THE RECEIVER OR ACCESSO-
RIES WHICH ARE COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY.
REPAIRS UNDER THIS WARRANTY SHALL ONLY
BE MADE AT AN AUTHORIZED ASHTECH SERVICE
CENTER. ANY REPAIRS BY A SERVICE CENTER
NOT AUTHORIZED BY ASHTECH WILL VOID THIS
WARRANTY.
3. PURCHASER'S DUTIES
To obtain service, contact and return the product
with a copy of the original sales receipt to the dealer
from whom you purchased the product.
Ashtech reserves the right to refuse to provide service
free-of-charge if the sales receipt is not provided or if
the information contained in it is incomplete or illeg-
ible or if the serial number is altered or removed.
Ashtech will not be responsible for any losses or dam-
age to the product incurred while the product is in
transit or is being shipped for repair. Insurance is
recommended. Ashtech suggests using a trackable
shipping method such as UPS or FedEx when return-
ing a product for service.
4. LIMITATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES
EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN ITEM 1 ABOVE, ALL
OTHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES,
INCLUDING THOSE OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTIC-
ULAR PURPOSE OR MERCHANTABILITY, ARE
HEREBY DISCLAIMED AND IF APPLICABLE, IM-
PLIED WARRANTIES UNDER ARTICLE 35 OF THE
UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON CONTRACTS
FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS.
Some national, state, or local laws do not allow limi-
tations on implied warranty or how long an implied
warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply
to you.
5. EXCLUSIONS
The following are excluded from the warranty cover-
age:
(1) periodic maintenance and repair or replacement
of parts due to normal wear and tear;
(2) batteries;
(3) finishes;
(4) installations or defects resulting from installa-
tion;
(5) any damage caused by (i) shipping, misuse,
abuse, negligence, tampering, or improper use; (ii)
disasters such as fire, flood, wind, and lightning; (iii)
unauthorized attachments or modification;
(6) service performed or attempted by anyone other
than an authorized Ashtechs Service Center;
(7) any product, components or parts not manufac-
tured by Ashtech,
(8) that the receiver will be free from any claim for
infringement of any patent, trademark, copyright or
other proprietary right, including trade secrets
(9) any damage due to accident, resulting from inac-
curate satellite transmissions. Inaccurate transmis-
sions can occur due to changes in the position,
health or geometry of a satellite or modifications to
the receiver that may be required due to any change
in the GPS. (Note: Ashtech GPS receivers use GPS or
GPS+GLONASS to obtain position, velocity and time
information. GPS is operated by the U.S. Govern-
ment and GLONASS is the Global Navigation Satel-
lite System of the Russian Federation, which are
solely responsible for the accuracy and maintenance
of their systems. Certain conditions can cause inac-
curacies which could require modifications to the re-
ceiver. Examples of such conditions include but are
not limited to changes in the GPS or GLONASS trans-
mission.).
Opening, dismantling or repairing of this product by
anyone other than an authorized Ashtech Service
Center will void this warranty.
