LIMITED HARDWARE WARRANTY

Hushidasmart warrants that the hardware components of its Hardware Product shall be free from material defects in design, materials, and workmanship and will function, under normal use and circumstances, in accordance with the documentation provided, for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of sign for receipt of the Hardware Product. 

After the Warranty Period, certain return material authorization (“RMA”) services, as provided by Hushidasmart (which are not covered under this warranty), are available for all Hardware Products pursuant to a purchased and active Hushidasmart support agreement.

Your sole and exclusive remedy, and Hushidasmart’s sole and exclusive liability for defective hardware components, shall be that Hushidasmart, subject to the terms and conditions of this section, and solely upon confirmation of a defect or failure of a hardware component to perform as warranted, shall at its sole option, either repair or replace the nonconforming hardware component or return of the price paid for the Hardware Product. All replacement parts furnished to you under this warranty shall be refurbished and equivalent to new, and shall be warranted as new for the remainder of the original warranty period. If a hardware failure occurs in the first 30 days from the product’s sign of receipt, Hushidasmart will replace it with new part or full unit as may be needed. All defective parts, which have been replaced, shall become the property of Hushidasmart. All defective parts that have been repaired shall remain Your property. This warranty gives You specific legal rights. You may have other rights that vary from state to state.

EXCLUSIONS

The foregoing warranties and remedies shall be void as to any Hardware Products damaged or rendered unserviceable by one or more of the following: (1) improper or inadequate maintenance by anyone other than Hushidasmart or Hushidasmart’s authorized agents, (2) software or interfacing supplied by anyone other than Hushidasmart, (3) modifications, alterations or additions to the Hardware Products by personnel not certified by Hushidasmart or Hushidasmart’s authorized agents to perform such acts, or other unauthorized repair, installation or opening or other causes beyond Hushidasmart’s control, (4) unreasonable refusal to agree with engineering change notice programs, (5) negligence by any person other than Hushidasmart or Hushidasmart’s authorized agents, (6) misuse, abuse, accident, electrical irregularity, theft, vandalism, fire, water or other peril, (7) damage caused by containment and/or operation outside the environmental specifications for the Hardware Products, (8) alteration or connection of the Hardware Products to other systems, equipment or devices (other than those specifically approved by Hushidasmart) without the prior approval of Hushidasmart, or (9) any use that is inconsistent with the user manual supplied with the Hardware Product. The warranty period is not extended if Hushidasmart repairs or replaces a warranted product or any parts. Hushidasmart may change the availability of limited hardware warranties, at its discretion, but any changes will not be retroactive.

HARDWARE RETURN PROCEDURES

If one of Hardware Product component parts does not function as warranted during the warranty period, and such nonconformance can be verified by Hushidasmart, Hushidasmart, at its election, will provide either return and replacement service or replacement with a refurbished part/unit for the Hardware Product under the type of warranty service Hushidasmart designates for that Hardware Product. A defective Hardware Product or one of its component parts may only be returned to Hushidasmart upon Hushidasmart’s prior written approval. Any such approval shall reference an RMA number issued by an authorized Hushidasmart service representative. To request an RMA number, you or your local Hushidasmart Certified Solution Provider must contact Hushidasmart’s Technical Assistance Center (“TAC”) and open a Service Request. You should always register the Hardware Product in your Hushidasmart User Center account. If you do not register the Hardware Product with Hushidasmart, you may be required to present proof of purchase as evidence of your entitlement to warranty service. The Hardware Product’s identification number will be required for all RMA cases. Transportation costs, if any, incurred in connection with the return of a defective Hardware Product to Hushidasmart shall be borne by You. Any transportation costs incurred in connection with the redelivery of a repaired or replacement item to You by Hushidasmart shall be borne by Hushidasmart; provided, however, that if Hushidasmart determines, in its sole discretion, that the allegedly defective item is not covered by the terms and conditions of the warranty or that a warranty claim is made after the warranty period, the cost of the repair by Hushidasmart, including all shipping expenses, shall be reimbursed by You.

HARDWARE REPLACEMENT PROCEDURES

Hushidasmart will attempt to diagnose and resolve your problem over the phone or web. Upon determination of the hardware issue is related to a malfunction of one of the Hardware Product components, an RMA process will be initiated by Hushidasmart’s TAC. Hushidasmart’s TAC will either issue a replacement of the faulty part (like Power Supply, TV set, etc.) or a full Unit Replacement. For Warranty Replacement service, it is required that you deliver the faulty unit to a location Hushidasmart designates and provide courier name and tracking number to Hushidasmart’s TAC. After the Faulty unit is returned to Hushidasmart, Hushidasmart will use commercially reasonable efforts to ship the replacement hardware within 7-15 business days. Actual delivery times may vary depending on Your location. Hushidasmart’s TAC will send the required hardware to the Hardware Product’s physical location, as it appears in your User Center and as verified with You when opening the Support Service Request.
