OBTAINING WARRANTY SERVICE
Your Dynabook Limited Warranty includes a Carry-in or Send-in warranty service. In some areas of some countries, a Pick-up & Return warranty service might also be provided. To find out about the local coverage, please contact Dynabook or your authorized service provider.

ADDITIONAL COSTS
Dynabook is not liable for any transport, delivery or insurance costs, import duties, taxes, licensing fees and any charges from telephone communications as consequence of the failure of the USB Type-C™ Adapter. However, should your Standard Warranty be covered by Pick-up & Return service type, the costs for repair or replacement (at Dynabook’s option), logistics and insurance will be covered by Dynabook save that Dynabook reserves the right to charge the end user for such costs if the end user culpable raised a claim under this Limited Warranty which in fact is not covered by it. In such case and to the extent permitted by applicable law, Dynabook or its authorized service providers reserve the right to retain the USB Type-C™ Adapter until the end user pays the costs of preparing the cost estimate.
