Warranty Policy
All PENTAX camera accessories purchased through authorized bona fide photographic distribution channels are guaranteed
against defects of material or workmanship for a period of twelve months from date of purchase. Service will be rendered,
and defective parts will be replaced without cost to you within that period, provided the equipment does not show evidence of
impact, sand or liquid damage, mishandling, tampering, battery or chemical corrosion, operation contrary to operating
instructions, or modification by an unauthorized repair shop. The manufacturer or its authorized representatives shall not be
liable for any repair or alterations except those made with its written consent and shall not be liable for damages from delay
or loss of use or from other indirect or consequential damages of any kind, whether caused by defective material or
workmanship or otherwise; and it is expressly agreed that the liability of the manufacturer or its representatives under all
guarantees or warranties, whether expressed or implied, is strictly limited to the replacement of parts as herein before
provided. No refunds will be made on repairs performed by non-authorized PENTAX service facilities.
Procedure During 12-month Warranty Period
Any PENTAX which proves defective during the 12-month warranty period should be returned to the dealer from whom you
purchased the equipment or to the manufacturer. If there is no representative of the manufacturer in your country, send the
equipment to the manufacturer, with postage prepaid. In this case, it will take a considerable length of time before the
equipment can be returned to you owing to the complicated customs procedures required. If the equipment is covered by
warranty, repairs will be made and parts replaced free of charge, and the equipment will be returned to you upon completion
of servicing. If the equipment is not covered by warranty, regular charges of the manufacturer or of its representatives will
apply. Shipping charges are to be borne by the owner. If your PENTAX was purchased outside of the country where you wish
to have it serviced during the warranty period, regular handling and servicing fees may be charged by the manufacturer’s
representatives in that country. Notwithstanding this, your PENTAX returned to the manufacturer will be serviced free of
charge according to this procedure and warranty policy.
In any case, however, shipping charges and customs clearance fees are to be borne by the sender. To prove the date of your
purchase when required, please keep the receipts or bills covering the purchase of your equipment for at least a year. Before
sending your equipment for servicing, please make sure that you are sending it to the manufacturer’s authorized
representatives or their approved repair shops, unless you are sending it directly to the manufacturer. Always obtain a
quotation for the service charge, and only after you accept the quoted service charge, instruct the service station to proceed
with the servicing.
