Epson America, Inc., Limited Warranty
Basic Two-Year Warranty and 90-Day Lamp Warranty
What Is Covered: Epson America, Inc. (“Epson”) warrants to the original retail purchaser of the Epson 
product enclosed with this limited warranty statement that the product, if purchased new and operated 
in the United States or Canada, will be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of 
two (2) years from the date of original purchase (except that the warranty period is 90 days for 
projector lamps). For warranty service, you must provide proof of the date of original purchase.
What Epson Will Do To Correct Problems: If your product requires service, Epson will ask you to bring 
the product securely packaged in its original container or equivalent, along with proof of the date of 
original purchase, to your Epson Dealer or Epson Customer Care Center as instructed by Epson. 
Epson will, at its option, repair or replace the defective unit, without charge for parts or labor. When 
warranty service involves the exchange of the product or of a part, the item replaced becomes Epson 
property. The exchanged product or part may be new or previously refurbished to the Epson standard 
of quality, and at Epsons option, the replacement may be another model of like kind and quality. 
Epsons liability for replacement of the covered product will not exceed the original retail selling price 
of the covered product. Exchange or replacement products or parts assume the remaining warranty 
period of the product covered by this limited warranty. However, each replacement lamp carries the 
limited 90-day warranty stated above.
What This Warranty Does Not Cover: This warranty does not apply to refurbished or reconditioned 
products. This warranty covers only normal use of the product. 24-hour-per-day or other high duty 
commercial use causes strain and is not considered normal use. This warranty does not cover 
consumables (e.g., filters), other than lamps as provided herein. This warranty is not transferable. 
Epson is not responsible for warranty service should the Epson label or logo or the rating label or serial 
number be removed. Epson is not responsible for warranty service should the product fail to be 
properly maintained or fail to function properly as a result of misuse, abuse, improper installation, 
neglect, improper shipping, damage caused by disasters such as fire, flood, and lightning, improper 
electrical current, software problems, interaction with non-Epson products, use in a smoke or 
dust-filled environment, or service other than by an Epson Authorized Servicer. Postage, insurance, or 
shipping costs incurred in presenting your Epson product for carry-in warranty service are your 
responsibility. If a claimed defect cannot be identified or reproduced in service, you will be held 
responsible for costs incurred.
THE WARRANTY AND REMEDY PROVIDED ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF 
ALL OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, 
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR 
PURPOSE. SOME LAWS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. 
IF THESE LAWS APPLY, THEN ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED 
TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD IDENTIFIED ABOVE. UNLESS STATED HEREIN, ANY 
STATEMENTS OR REPRESENTATIONS MADE BY ANY OTHER PERSON OR FIRM ARE 
VOID. IN THE EVENT THE REMEDIES ABOVE FAIL, EPSONS ENTIRE LIABILITY SHALL 
BE LIMITED TO A REFUND OF THE PRICE PAID FOR THE EPSON PRODUCT

COVERED BY THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS WRITTEN 
WARRANTY, NEITHER EPSON AMERICA, INC. NOR ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE LIABLE 
FOR ANY LOSS, INCONVENIENCE, OR DAMAGE, INCLUDING DIRECT, SPECIAL, 
INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, RESULTING FROM THE USE OR 
INABILITY TO USE THE EPSON PRODUCT, WHETHER RESULTING FROM BREACH OF 
WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY.
In Canada, warranties include both warranties and conditions.
Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts and some 
jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the 
above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, 
and you may also have other rights, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
