The warranty is transferable during the term of the applicable warranty period of the RØDE Microphone, provided that the original purchaser has registered the microphone for the extended warranty and provided RØDE with a copy of the original proof of purchase from an authorised RØDE dealer. Each and every claim made pursuant to this warranty by any person other than the original purchaser will incur an AUS$20.00 charge payable to RØDE upon making a warranty claim.
The warranty does not affect any statutory rights that the original purchaser may have in accordance with the law applicable in the jurisdiction where the RØDE Microphone was purchased or any rights that the original purchaser may have against the authorized RØDE dealer pursuant to their original purchase agreement. Such statutory rights may not apply to subsequent owners of the RØDE Microphone.
In order to claim pursuant to this warranty in the period of one (1) year from the date of purchase of the RØDE microphone, the RØDE microphone must be delivered, together with the original proof of purchase, to the authorized RØDE service centre in the region in which the RØDE microphone was originally purchased.
In order to claim pursuant to this warranty during the extended warranty period, the RØDE microphone must be delivered to the authorized RØDE service centre in the region in which the RØDE microphone was originally purchased.
Once the RØDE microphone has been received, the authorized RØDE service centre will then arrange the repair (or replacement where applicable pursuant to paragraph 2 above) in accordance with the warranty repair procedure prescribed by RØDE for their authorized service centre network. The warranty repair will be conducted by the authorized RØDE service centre as promptly as possible and within a reasonable time from the date of submission for the warranty repair.
In circumstances where a warranty repair is being claimed from an authorized RØDE service centre outside the region in which the RØDE microphone was originally purchased, then only the cost of parts required for the proper repair of the RØDE Microphone will be covered by this warranty, while the cost of labour for the repair of the RØDE Microphone will be charged to the original purchaser by that authorized RØDE service centre. That authorized RØDE service centre may waive the cost of labour in that service centre’s sole discretion.
The list of authorized RØDE service centres in each region is available at www.rode.com/contact_us.

That authorized RØDE service centre may waive the cost of return shipping to a nominated address after the warranty repair at that service centre’s sole discretion.
RØDE will not accept any warranty repair without the original proof or purchase of the RØDE microphone, or without the registration of the RØDE microphone during the extended warranty period. It is the original purchaser’s responsibility to keep the original proof or purchase safe at all times, as RØDE is not obliged to provide a replacement of the original proof or purchase, and to transfer that proof of purchase to any subsequent owners of the RØDE microphone.
Any repair or replacement of an RØDE microphone pursuant to this warranty does not extend the warranty, and the original term of the warranty will remain.
RØDE shall not be liable for damages in excess of the purchase price of the RØDE microphone arising out of the use or inability to use the RØDE microphone insofar as allowed to be disclaimed by law in the jurisdiction where the RØDE Microphone was purchased.

This warranty can be extended to ten (10) years from the date of purchase. To be eligible for the extension of the warranty, the original purchaser must register the purchase of their RØDE Microphone online. The terms and conditions of the original warranty will then apply for the term of the extended warranty period.
