1.  Scope

1.1  This limited warranty is issued by Crestron Electronics, Inc. together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, excluding Crestron Europe BV, (collectively “Crestron”), and is applicable only to Crestron AIR, Aspire, Essence, Excite, FS, Reference, Saros, and Ultimate speaker products (collectively, “Covered Products”), provided that the customer of such product (“Customer”) purchased the Covered Product directly from Crestron, an authorized Crestron dealer, or other parties authorized by Crestron or from an authorized Crestron dealer or other reseller authorized by Crestron (collectively “Authorized Reseller”).

1.2  This warranty is a limited warranty and gives you specific legal rights.  You may also have additional rights under applicable law, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and this limited warranty does not affect such rights.  Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the limitation or exclusion under this limited warranty may not apply to you.

1.3  Batteries and lamps are not warranted by Crestron under this or any other warranty.

1.4  This warranty applies in the territory where the Covered Products are distributed by Crestron, via an Authorized Reseller.

2.  Limited Warranty

2.1  Subject to the exclusions and restrictions in this warranty, Crestron warrants that if any AIR, Aspire, Essence, Excite, FS, Reference, Saros, and Ultimate speaker product is found to exhibit defects in material or workmanship under normal use for the lifetime of the Covered Product or if any speaker grill or outdoor rated speaker is found to exhibit defects in material or workmanship under normal use for a period of five (5) years from the date of Crestron’s shipment of the Product, so long as Customer promptly notifies Crestron via an Authorized Reseller of the defect and arranges for the return of the defective Covered Product, Crestron will, at its sole discretion, either: (a) provide a replacement product; (b) repair the defective Covered Product; or (c) issue a credit against the purchase price of comparable replacement product purchased from an Authorized Reseller.

2.2  Replacement products and repair parts provided by Crestron may be new, used, repaired, reconditioned, refurbished, and / or made by a different manufacturer.  The warranty period for any replacement product or repaired defective Covered Product shall be limited to the unexpired portion of the warranty on the originally purchased Covered Product.

2.3  Certain Covered Products include operational software and firmware (collectively, the “Software”).  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1, such Software is governed by the Crestron Software End-User License Agreement, which can be found at: https://www.crestron.com/Crestron-Software-End-User-License-Agreement.

3.  Terms and Conditions of Limited Warranty

3.1  Customers should inquire of the Authorized Reseller, from whom they purchased the Covered Product, regarding the nature and extent of that Authorized Reseller’s warranty, if any.  This warranty is provided only to Customers that originally purchased the Covered Product and shall not extend to subsequent owners.  This warranty does not cover, and Crestron is not responsible for labor costs to diagnose, remove, repair, replace, reinstall, and/or program any Covered Product.  The claimed defects are subject to validation by Crestron technical support personnel.

3.2  This warranty shall be null and void, and Crestron shall have no liability under the terms of this warranty, if the Covered Product has been used in an application or environment other than that for which it was intended or if it has been subjected to misuse, abuse, accidental damage, modification, improper repair or installation procedures or adverse environmental factors including incorrect line voltages, improper wiring, improperly rated fuses or circuit breakers, insufficient ventilation or incorrect temperatures or an act of God.  This warranty does not cover any Covered Product that has had the serial number altered, defaced, or removed.

3.3  THIS WARRANTY SHALL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY TO CUSTOMER.  IN NO EVENT SHALL CRESTRON BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (PROPERTY OR ECONOMIC DAMAGES INCLUSIVE) ARISING FROM THE SALE OR USE OF THE COVERED PRODUCT.  CUSTOMER ASSUMES, AND WILL HOLD CRESTRON HARMLESS, WITH RESPECT TO ALL SUCH LOSSES.  Crestron’s liability on any claim for damages arising out of or in connection with the manufacture, sale, installation, delivery, or use of the Covered Product shall never exceed the purchase price of the Covered Product.  Crestron is not liable for any claim made by a third party or made by Customer for a third party.

3.4  Further, Crestron shall have no liability for any claims of infringement of any patent, trademark, copyright or other intellectual property for the following: (a) if the Covered Products are used in combination with other third party products or without Crestron’s express authorization; (b) if the Covered Products were modified by anyone other than Crestron; (c) for the use or sale of the Covered Product other than as specified and authorized in Crestron’s documentation; or (d) for the use or sale of any version of Crestron software other than the most current version.

3.5  EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY, CRESTRON MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, NOR AUTHORIZES ANY OTHER PARTY TO OFFER ANY WARRANTY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED BY LAW, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THIS WARRANTY PERIOD.

3.6  This warranty supersedes any and all previous warranties and Crestron’s obligations under any implied warranties shall be limited to the terms of this express warranty.  Crestron reserves the right to amend this warranty from time to time.  However, to the extent that any amended warranty materially changes Crestron’s warranty obligations, such amendments will not apply to Covered Product orders already placed and accepted by Crestron.

4.  To Make a Warranty Claim

4.1  To make a warranty claim, promptly notify Crestron by contacting the Customer Support Center at support@crestron.com or visit our website at www.crestron.com to obtain additional local contact information.  You may also contact your Authorized Reseller.  Crestron, in its sole discretion, will determine what action, if any, is required under this warranty.  No products may be returned for credit, exchange, or service without prior authorization from Crestron.  If your Covered Products are authorized for return, Crestron or your Authorized Reseller will provide further instruction regarding the Return Material Authorization (“RMA”) process.  Covered Products may not be returned without an RMA number.

4.2  Most problems can be corrected over the phone through close cooperation between Customer and the Crestron Customer Support Center.  To better enable Crestron to address a warranty claim, please have the Covered Product’s serial and model numbers as well as its current operating system version, if applicable.  If Crestron, in its sole discretion, determines that an on-site visit or other remedial action is necessary, Crestron may coordinate the dispatch of a representative from an Authorized Reseller, to Customer’s site, and/or coordinate a warranty service call between Customer and an Authorized Reseller.

5.  Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
