· Products which are outside of the PJ/RJ/TD series of Brother products;

· Damage caused by the chemical or electrochemical effects of water;
· Minor variations to the Product specification which are of no significance to the Product’s value or fitness for purpose;
· Damage to third party items or parts, materials or equipment not manufactured by Brother;

Repairs or replacement (at Brother discretion) provided under Brother CORE Service Pack neither extend the standard warranty or Brother CORE Service Pack period nor commence a new Brother CORE Service Pack period for the Product. The service period for any spare parts, print heads and platen rollers provided under the Brother CORE Service Pack ends with the expiry of the standard service period of the Product.
Where services are unreasonably or dishonestly requested by you, whether during the Brother CORE Service Pack term or otherwise, Brother reserves the right to charge you an appropriate amount for the repair of the Products. Any charges or sums shall be payable by you, plus any applicable VAT and/or sales taxes.
