Limited Warranty (United States)
Robert Bosch Corporation warrants new Blaupunkt car audio products it distributes in the United States through authorized Blaupunkt dealers, or which are imported as original vehicle equipment by the automobile manufacturer, to be free from defects in material and workmanship, in accordance with the following:
For twelve (12) months after delivery to you, the original consumer purchaser, we will repair or at our option replace at no charge to you any car audio product which, under normal conditions of use and service, proves to be defective in materials or workmanship. However, this warranty does not cover expenses incurred in the removal or reinstallation of any car audio product, whether,or not proven defective, and does not cover products not purchased from an authorized Blaupunkt dealer. This warranty is limited to the original consumer purchaser and is not transferable. Repaired and replacement car audio products shall assume the identity of the original for purpose of this warranty and this warranty shall not be extended with respect to such products.
To obtain performance of this warranty, contact the nearest Blaupunkt authorized repair facility or our nearest office. A dated purchase receipt or other proof that the product is within the warranty period will be required in order to honor your claim. Carefully pack the unit and ship prepaid to the servicing location.

Specifically excluded from this warranty are failures caused by misuse, neglect, abuse, improper operation or installation, dropping or damaging a radio faceplate, unauthorized service or parts, or failure to follow maintenance instructions or perform normal maintenance activities. Normal maintenance activities for car audio products include but are not limited to cleaning, such as cleaning radio faceplate connectors and tape heads, tape player head demagnetization and tape player lubrication, compact disc and lens cleaning, and other minor maintenance activities and adjustments that are outlined in the owner’s manual or that are normally required for continued proper operation. Also excluded from this warranty is the correction of improper installation and the elimination of any external electromagnetic interference.
This warranty sets forth your exclusive remedies with respect to the products covered by it. We shall not be liable for any incidental, consequential, special or punitive damages arising from the sale or use of any Blaupunkt car audio products, whether such claim is in contract or tort. No attempt to alter, modify, or amend this warranty shall be effective unless authorized in writing by an officer of Robert Bosch Corporation.
THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY LAW, WHETHER FOR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE ANJ SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY FOR THE PERIOD THAT THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY IS EFFECTIVE.
In the event any provision, or any part or portion of this warranty shall be held invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, such holding shall not affect the remaining part or portions of that provision or any other provision hereof.
NOTICE TO CALIFORNIA OWNERS
If your Blaupunkt car audio product needs warranty repair service and there is no authorized service center reasonably close to you, you can return the defective unit to the dealer from whom you purchased it, or you can return it to any dealer who sells Blaupunkt car audio products. The dealer may, at the dealer’s option, replace, repair or refund the purchase price for any Blaupunkt car audio products which prove defective under conditions of normal use. If the dealer fails to repair, replace, or partially refund your money, you may take your Blaupunkt car audio product to any repair shop and they can repair your unit at our expense unless the repair cost exceeds the depreciated value of the unit, but you must contact Blaupunkt to receive authorization to do this before your car audio product is repaired.
