THREE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

For Plasma Displays

from Vidikron, a business of Runco International, LLC (“Vidikron”)

Congratulations on your purchase of a Vidikron video product and welcome to the Vidikron family! With proper installation, setup and care, you should enjoy many years of unparalleled video performance.

This is a LIMITED WARRANTY as defined in the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Please read it carefully and retain it with your other important documents.

WHAT IS COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY:

The following Vidikron plasma display models are covered under this Limited Warranty:

VP-5000VHD, VP-5000VHDa, VP-6500VHD, VP-6500VHDa and VP-103VHD (“Product” individually and “Products” collectively).

SERVICE LABOR: Vidikron will pay for service labor at an Authorized Service Center when needed as a result of manufacturing defect for a period of three (3) years from the date of delivery to the initial end user (excluding the plasma glass panel).

PARTS (not including plasma glass panel): Vidikron will provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that fail due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of delivery to the initial end user. Such replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the remaining portion (if any) of the original warranty period.

PLASMA GLASS PANEL: Vidikron will pay for service labor at an Authorized Service Center when needed as a result of a manufacturing defect for a period of one (1) year from the effective date of delivery to the initial end user. In addition, Vidikron will provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that fail due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the effective date of delivery to the initial end user. Such replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the remaining portion (if any) of the original warranty period.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY:

Image burn-in on plasma display panels is specifically excluded from coverage under this Limited Warranty. Image burn-in is the result of misuse of the Product and therefore cannot be repaired under the terms of this Limited Warranty.

Normal viewing material such as television/satellite broadcasts, videotape or DVDs (not put into pause for extended periods of time) will not cause damage to your display under normal conditions. Many DVD players are also equipped with screen savers for this reason.

TO AVOID IMAGE RETENTION (Burn-in):Please ensure that still images are left on your plasma display panel for no more than a few minutes. Also ensure that images displayed in the 4:3 aspect ratio mode (black or gray stripes, but no picture information is present on the left and right edges of the screen) are used as infrequently as possible. This will prevent permanent image burns on your plasma display panel, which can be seen permanently under certain conditions once burn-in has occurred.

The types of images to avoid include video games, still images and computer screens with stationary tool bars and icons. (This is why computers are equipped with screen savers – to prevent still images from burning into the monitor’s phosphors after being displayed continuously for an extended period of time).

This Limited Warranty only covers failure due to defects in materials and workmanship that occur during normal use and does not cover normal wear and tear nor any Product on which the serial number has been defaced, modified, or removed. This Limited Warranty does not cover: cabinets or any appearance items; failure resulting from accident, misuse, abuse, neglect, mishandling, misapplication, or faulty or improper installation or setup adjustments; improper maintenance; alteration; improper use of any input signal; damage due to lightning or power line surges, spikes and brownouts; damage that occurs during shipping or transit; damage that is attributed to acts of God; customer caused defects; or rental costs incurred due to Product failure. In the case of remote control units, damage resulting from leaking, old, damaged or improper batteries is also excluded from coverage under this Limited Warranty.
