WARRANTY POLICY
All Pentax cameras purchased through authorized bona fide photo- graphic distribution channels are guaranteed against defects of material or workmanship for a period of twelve months from date of purchase. Service will be rendered, and defective parts will be replaced without cost to you within that period, provided the equip- ment does not show evidence of impact, sand or liquid damage, mis- handling, tampering, battery or chemical corrosion, operation con- trary to operating instructions, or modification by an unauthorized repair shop. The manufacturer or its authorized representatives shall not be liable for any repair or alterations except those made with its written consent and shall not be liable for damages from delay or loss of use or from other indirect or consequential damages of any kind, whether caused by defective material or workmanship or other- wise; and it is expressly agreed that the liability of the manufacturer or its representatives under all guarantees or warranties, whether expressed or implied, is strictly limited to the replacement of parts as hereinbefore provided. No refunds will be made on repairs by non- authorized Pentax service facilities.
| Procedure During | |
| Any Pentax which proves defective during the | |
| period should be returned to the dealer from whom you purchased | |
| the equipment or to the manufacturer. If there is no representatives | |
| of the manufacturer in your country, send the equipment to the man- | |
| ufacturer, with postage prepaid. In this case, it will take a consider- | |
| able length of time before the equipment can be returned to you | |
| owing to the complicated customs procedures required. If the equip- | |
| ment is covered by warranty, repairs will be made and parts replaced | |
| free of charge, and the equipment will be returned to you upon com- | |
| pletion of servicing. If the equipment is not covered by warranty, reg- | |
| ular charges of the manufacturer or of its representatives will apply. | |
| Shipping charges are to be borne by the owner. If your Pentax was | |
| purchased outside of the country where you wish to have it serviced | |
Appendix | during the warranty period, regular handling and servicing fees may | |
be charged by the manufacturer's representatives in that country. | ||
|
Notwithstanding this, your Pentax returned to the manufacturer will be serviced free of charge according to this procedure and warranty policy. In any case, however, shipping charges and customs clear- ance fees to be borne by the sender. To prove the date of your pur- chase when required, please keep the receipt or bills covering the purchase of your equipment for at least a year. Before sending your equipment for servicing, please make sure that you are sending it to the manufacturer's authorized representatives or their approved repair shops, unless you are sending it directly to the manufacturer. Always obtain a quotation for the service charge, and only after you accept the quoted service charge, instruct the service station to pro- ceed with the servicing.

•The local warranty policies available from Pentax distributors in some countries can supersede this warranty policy. Therefore, we recommend that you review the warranty card supplied with your product at the time of purchase, or contact the PENTAX distributor in your country for more information and to receive a copy of the warranty policy.
