Limited Warranty
Digital Security Controls warrants the original purchaser that for a
period of twelve months from the date of purchase, the product shall
be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal use.
During the warranty period, Digital Security Controls shall, at its
option, repair or replace any defective product upon return of the pro-
duct to its factory, at no charge for labour and materials. Any repla-
cement and/or repaired parts are warranted for the remainder of the
original warranty or ninety (90) days, whichever is longer. The ori-
ginal purchaser must promptly notify Digital Security Controls in wri-
ting that there is defect in material or workmanship, such written notice
to be received in all events prior to expiration of the warranty period.

ment included with the product. The Customer assumes all res-
ponsibility for the proper selection, installation, operation and
maintenance of any products purchased from DSC. Custom products
are only warranted to the extent that they do not function upon deli-

tomer within Canada and the United States, with the exception that

taxes, or VAT that may be due.
