Magellan MG-6160 manual Limited Warranty

Limited Warranty

Paradox Security Systems Ltd. (“Seller”) warrants its products to be free from manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for one-year following the date of manufacture. Seller will, within this period, at its option, repair or replace any product failing to operate correctly without charge to the original purchaser or user. This warranty will not apply to any equipment, or any parts thereof, which have been repaired by others, improperly installed, improperly used, abused, altered, damaged, subjected to acts of God, or on which any serial numbers have been altered, defaced or removed. Seller will not be responsible for any dismantling or reinstallation charges.

THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION HEREIN. THERE IS NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR A WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ON THE PART OF SELLER, ITS SUPPLIERS AND/OR AFFILIATES.

Any action for breach of warranty, including but not limited to any implied warranty of merchantability, must be brought within three months following the end of the warranty period. IN NO CASE WILL SELLER OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO ANYONE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE SELLER’S OWN NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT.

In case of defect, contact the security professional who installed and maintains your security system. In order to exercise the warranty, the product must be returned to the indicated RMA location by the security professional, shipping costs prepaid and insured. After repair or replacement, Seller assumes the cost of returning products under warranty. Seller will have no obligation under this warranty, or otherwise, if the product has been repaired by others, improperly installed, improperly used, abused, altered, damaged, subjected to accident, nuisance, flood, fire or acts of God, or on which any serial numbers have been altered, defaced or removed. Seller will not be responsible for any dismantling, reassembly or reinstallation charges.

This warranty contains the entire warranty. Any prior agreements or representations, whether oral or written, are either merged herein or are expressly cancelled. Seller neither assumes, nor authorizes any other person purporting to act on its behalf to modify, to change, or to assume for it, any other warranty or liability concerning its products.

Notwithstanding anything herein, in no event shall Seller or its affiliates be liable for an amount in excess of Seller’s original selling price of the product, for any loss or damage, whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or otherwise arising out of any failure of the product. Seller’s warranty, as hereinabove set forth, shall not be enlarged, diminished or affected by and no obligation or liability shall arise from Seller offering to render or rendering technical advice or services in connection with the purchase of goods hereunder.

SELLER STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE ENTIRE SYSTEM BE COMPLETELY TESTED MONTHLY.

Warning: Despite frequent testing, and due to, but not limited to, any or all of the following: criminal tampering, electrical or communication disruption, or improper use, it is possible for the system to fail to perform as expected. Seller does not represent that the product/system may not be compromised or circumvented or that the product or system will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; nor that the product or system will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. A properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce risk of burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise but it is not insurance or a guarantee that these events will not occur. CONSEQUENTLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR OTHER LOSS BASED ON A CLAIM THE PRODUCT FAILED TO GIVE WARNING. Therefore, the installer should in turn advise the consumer to take any and all precautions for his or her safety including, but not limited to, fleeing the premises and calling 911, the police and/or fire department, in order to mitigate the possibilities of harm and/or damage.

Seller is not an insurer of either the property or safety of the user’s family or employees, and limits its liability for any loss or damage including incidental or consequential damages to Seller’s original selling price of the product in question, regardless of the cause of such loss and/or damage.

Some locations do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or differentiate in their treatment of limitations of liabilities for ordinary or gross negligence, therefore the above limitations may be reduced and/ or not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have additional rights depending on the location.

Limitations of Alarm Systems

It must be understood that while your Paradox alarm system is highly advanced and secure, it does not offer any guaranteed protection against burglary, fire or other emergency (fire and emergency options are only available on certain Paradox models). This is due to a number of reasons, including by not limited to inadequate or improper installation/positioning, sensor limitations, battery performance, wireless signal interruption, inadequate maintenance or the potential for the system or telephone lines to be compromised or circumvented. As a result, Paradox does not represent that the alarm system will prevent personal injury or property damage, or in all cases provide adequate warning or protection.

Your security system should therefore be considered as one of many tools available to reduce risk and/or damage of burglary, fire or other emergencies, such other tools include but are not limited to insurance coverage, fire prevention and extinguish devices, and sprinkler systems.

We also strongly recommend that you regularly maintain your security systems and stay aware of new and improved Paradox products and developments.

Warning for Connections to Non-Traditional Telephony (eg. VoIP)

Paradox alarm equipment was designed to work effectively around traditional telephone systems. For those customers who are using a Paradox alarm panel connected to a non-traditional telephone system, such as "Voice Over Internet Protocol" (VoIP) that converts the voice signal from your telephone to a digital signal traveling over the Internet, you should be aware that your alarm system may not function as effectively as with traditional telephone systems.

For example, if your VoIP equipment has no battery back-up, during a power failure your system's ability to transmit signals to the central station may be compromised. Or, if your VoIP connection becomes disabled, your telephone line monitoring feature may also be compromised. Other concerns would include, without limitation, Internet connection failures which may be more frequent than regular telephone line outages.

We therefore strongly recommend that you discuss these and other limitations involved with operating an alarm system on a VoIP or other non-traditional telephone system with your installation company. They should be able to offer or recommend measures to reduce the risks involved and give you a better

understanding.
