Limited Connected Equipment Guarantee
Your Connected Equipment Guarantee covers the original purchaser for
connected equipment damaged by a transient voltage surge/spike (“Occurrence”)
while properly connected through this power conditioner for a period of five (5)
years from the date of purchase (See your package for amounts).
Audiovox Electronics Corporation (“Audiovox”) will repair the damaged equipment
or will reimburse an amount equal to the fair market value of the equipment or
the original purchase price of the equipment, whichever is less, up to the
maximum amount set forth for the Connected Equipment Guarantee for this
power conditioner.
The fair market value of the equipment shall be the current value of the equipment
specified in the most recent edition of the Orion Blue Book by Orion Research
Corporation, Roger Rhors Publisher. The cost, if any, of shipping equipment to and
from such repair facility shall be borne solely by the original purchaser.
Audiovox reserves the right to inspect the damaged power conditioner and the
damaged equipment, and the site where damaged occurred. All cost of shipping
the damaged power conditioner and the damaged equipment shall be borne

The Connected Equipment Guarantee is Null and Void If:
• The power conditioner and/or the damaged equipment in use during the
Occurrence is not provided to Audiovox for inspection upon Audiovox’s

installed, altered in any way, tampered with, and that the damage did not
result from the Occurrence or that no Occurrence in fact took place.

• The Occurrence is due to low voltage disturbances (i.e. brown out or sags).
• Audiovox is not permitted to promptly inspect the site where damage
occurred.
