Limited Warranty Limits And Exclusions
This warranty ONLY COVERS failures due to defects in materials or workmanship, and DOES NOT 
COVER normal wear and tear or cosmetic damage, nor does it cover markings or retained images on 
the picture tube resulting from viewing  
xed images (including, among other things, letterbox pictures 
on standard 4:3 screen TV’s, or non-expanded standard 4:3 pic  tures on wide screen TV’s, or onscreen 
data in a stationary and   xed location). The warranty ALSO DOES NOT COVER damages which 
occurred in shipment, or failures which are caused by products not supplied by the warrantor, or failures 
which result from accidents, misuse, abuse, neglect, mishandling, misapplication, alteration, faulty 
installation, set-up ad  just ments, misadjustment of consumer controls, improper maintenance, power 
line surge, lightning damage, modi  cation, or commercial use (such as in a hotel, of  ce, restaurant, or 
other business), rental use of the product, service by anyone other than a Factory Servicenter or other 
Authorized Servicer, or damage that is attributable to acts of God.

COVERAGE”.  THE WARRANTOR IS NOT LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL 
DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT, OR ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH

illustration only.)  
ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE WARRANTY OF 
MERCHANTABILITY, ARE LIMITED TO THE PERIOD OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or 
limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the exclusions may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you speci  c legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state 
to state. If a problem with this product develops during or after the warranty period, you may contact 
your dealer or Servicenter. If the problem is not handled to your satisfaction, then write to the warrantor’
