Warranty Statement

1. Sleipner Motor AS (The “Warrantor”) warrants that the equipment (parts, materials, and embedded software of products) manufactured by the Warrantor is free from defects in workmanship and materials for the purpose for which the equipment is intended and under normal use and service (the “Warranty”).
2. This Warranty is in effect for two years (Leisure Use) or one year (Commercial and other Non-leisure Use) from the date of purchase by the end user (for demonstration vessels, the dealer is deemed as the end user).
3. This Warranty is transferable and covers the equipment for the specific warranty period.
4. The warranty does not apply to defects or damages caused by faulty installation or hook-up, abuse or misuse of the equipment including exposure to excessive heat, salt or freshwater spray, or water immersion except for equipment specifically designed as waterproof.
5. In case the equipment seems to be defective, the warranty holder (the “Claimant”) must do the following to make a claim:
   • Contact the dealer or service center where the equipment was purchased and make the claim. Alternatively, the Claimant can make the claim to a dealer or service center found at www.sleipnergroup.com. The Claimant must present a detailed written statement of the nature and circumstances of the defect, to the best of the Claimant’s knowledge, including product identification and serial nbr., the date and place of purchase, and the name and address of the installer. Proof of purchase date should be included with the claim, to verify that the warranty period has not expired;
   • Make the equipment available for troubleshooting and repair, with direct and workable access, including the dismantling of furnishings or similar, if any, either at the premises of the Warrantor or an authorized service representative approved by the Warrantor. Equipment can only be returned to the Warrantor or an authorized service representative for repair following a pre-approval by the Warrantor’s Help Desk and if so, with the Return Authorisation Number visible postage/shipping prepaid and at the expense of the Claimant.
6. Examination and handling of the warranty claim:
   • If upon the Warrantor’s or authorized service Representative’s examination, the defect is determined to result from defective material or workmanship in the warranty period, the equipment will be repaired or replaced at the Warrantor’s option without charge and returned to the Purchaser at the Warrantor’s expense. If, on the other hand, the claim is determined to result from circumstances such as described in section 4 above or a result of wear and tear exceeding that for which the equipment is intended (e.g. commercial use of equipment intended for leisure use), the costs for the troubleshooting and repair shall be borne by the Claimant;
   • No refund of the purchase price will be granted to the Claimant unless the Warrantor is unable to remedy the defect after having a reasonable number of opportunities to do so. In the event that attempts to remedy the defect have failed, the Claimant may claim a refund of the purchase price, provided that the Claimant submits a statement in writing from a professional boating equipment supplier that the installation instructions of the Installation and Operation Manual have been complied with and that the defect remains.
7. Warranty service shall be performed only by the Warrantor, or an authorized service representative, and any attempt to remedy the defect by anyone else shall render this warranty void.
8. No other warranty is given beyond those described above, implied or otherwise, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose other than the purpose for which the equipment is intended, and any other obligations on the part of the Warrantor or its employees and representatives.
9. There shall be no responsibility or liability whatsoever on the part of the Warrantor or its employees and representatives based on this Warranty for injury to any person or persons, or damage to property, loss of income or profit, or any other incidental, consequential, or resulting damage or cost claimed to have been incurred through the use or sale of the equipment, including any possible failure or malfunction of the equipment or damages arising from collision with other vessels or objects.
10. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from country to country.
