property of Motorola.

Exclusions (Products and Accessories)

This warranty does not apply to:
(a) Consumable parts, such as batteries or
protective coatings designed to diminish over time
unless failure has occurred due to a defect in
materials or workmanship. As with all batteries, the
maximum capacity of the battery will decrease with
time and use; this is not a defect. Only defective
batteries and batteries that leak are covered by this
warranty.
(b) Cosmetic damage, including but not limited to
scratches, dents, cracks or other cosmetic
damage.
(c) Damage caused by use with non-Motorola
products. Defects or damage that result from the
use of non-Motorola branded or certified Products,
accessories or other peripheral equipment,
including without limitation housings, parts, or
software, are excluded from coverage.
(d) Damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse,
liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external
causes; including but not limited to: (i) improper
usage or operation (e.g. operating the Product
outside their permitted or intended uses as defined
by Motorola, including but not limited to as set forth
by Motorola in the Products' User Manual, Quick
Start Guide, Online Tutorials, and other
documentation), improper storage (e.g. subjecting
the Product to extreme temperatures), abuse or
neglect (e.g. broken/bent/missing
clips/fasteners/connectors); impact damage (e.g.
dropping the Product) (ii) contact with liquids,
water, rain, extreme humidity, heavy perspiration or
other moisture; sand, food, dirt or similar
substances (except for Products sold as resistant
to such substances, but only to the extent the
damage was not caused by incorrectly securing the
phone's protective elements or subjecting the
Product to conditions beyond its stated
specifications or limits); (iii) use of the Products for
commercial rental purposes; or (iv) external causes
or acts which are not the fault of Motorola, including
but not limited to flood, fire, earthquake, tornado or
other acts of God, are excluded from coverage.
(e) Unauthorized Service or Modification. Defects
or damage resulting from service, testing,
adjustment, installation, maintenance, alteration, or
modification in any way, including but not limited to
tampering with or altering the software, by
someone other than Motorola, or its authorized
service centers, are excluded from coverage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Product which
has had its bootloader unlocked, or whose
operating system has been altered, including any
failed attempts to unlock the bootloader or alter
such operating system, is not covered by this
warranty, regardless of whether such modifications
are authorized, approved, or otherwise sanctioned
by Motorola.
(f) A product or part that has been modified in any
manner without the written permission of Motorola.
