This manufacturer’s warranty is governed by the laws of the country in which you purchased your Belkin, Linksys or Wemo product. In many countries, consumers have rights under local consumer laws. Those consumer rights may differ between countries, states and provinces, and often cannot be excluded. Your local consumer rights organization can advise you on your legal rights.
This manufacturer’s warranty is not intended to:

• change or exclude any rights under consumer law that cannot be lawfully changed or excluded; or
• limit or exclude any right you have against the person who sold the Belkin, Linksys or Wemo product to you if that person has breached their sales contract with you.

WHAT DOES THIS WARRANTY COVER?
Belkin warrants that the product hardware and any software media (i.e., media on which the product software is provided) will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use during the Warranty Period described below.
