ADDITIONAL RIGHTS. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The benefits of this warranty are in addition to rights you may have under consumer protection laws. Some jurisdictions do not permit certain limitations or exclusions described in this warranty, so certain limitations and exclusions of this warranty may not apply to you.
What is covered by the warranty? Subject to the terms and conditions of this warranty, Koss warrants that this Product will be free of any defect in materials and workmanship under normal use during the ninety (90) day period following retail purchase by the initial user (the “Warranty Period”). Koss requires your original receipt to determine the Warranty Period. Any defect in materials or workmanship must be discovered and reported to Koss within the Warranty Period or it will not be covered by this warranty. You may not transfer the warranty and no one but you is benefited by it. This is the only express warranty made by Koss and is in lieu of any (if any) others concerning this Product.
You may also have an implied warranty and/or condition under the law of some jurisdictions. If so, the duration of all implied warranties is limited to the Warranty Period. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty or condition lasts, so this limitation might not apply to you.
What is not covered? The warranty does not cover: damage resulting from abnormal or commercial use; modifications by you of the Product; cosmetic damage; any defect resulting from abuse, misuse, accident, failure to follow Product instructions; problems caused by you; problems caused by maintenance or repair of the Product by anyone other than Koss or a Koss designated party; or damage caused by liquid. (The Product may contain a liquid sensor that indicates the presence of excessive liquid.) Koss is not liable for any damage to or loss of any user data. Normal decrease in battery capacity over time is not covered by this warranty.
Unless otherwise required by law, this warranty does not cover any open so urce software (software provided under public license by third parties).
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE PRODUCT. Opening the Product or attempting to open the Product may cause damage that this warranty does not cover. This warranty is void if the Product is returned with any alterations, including removal of the external cover.
What do you have to do to place a warranty claim? You are required to submit the Product to Koss for inspection to confirm the alleged defect. Koss will not provide coverage under this warranty unless you comply with all terms. To request warranty service, you must: (1) return the Product in prepaid, secure and protective packaging to Koss Corp., 4129 N. Port Washington Ave., Milwaukee, Wisconsin, U.S.A. 53212; and (2) enclose a short but specific description of the alleged defect with a copy of your original receipt and sufficient information to allow Koss to contact you.
What will Koss do? During the Warranty Period Koss will perform any repair or replacement that is covered by this warranty without charge to you. If Koss does not confirm the alleged defect, Koss will inform you of the estimated fee for repair efforts. There is no charge for this estimate. After the Warranty Period, service for the Product, including battery replacement, may be available from Koss for a fee.
EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY BREACH OF THE WARRANTY SHALL BE THE OBLIGATION OF KOSS, AT ITS SOLE OPTION (subject to applicable law), TO EITHER (1) REPAIR OR REPLACE THE PRODUCT; OR (2) PAY TO YOU DAMAGES YOU ACTUALLY INCURRED IN REASONABLE RELIANCE, BUT ONLY UP TO THE AMOUNT OF THE PURCHASE PRICE THAT YOU PAID LESS REASONABLE DEPRECIATION BASED ON ACTUAL USE where permitted by law. Koss reserves the right to repair or replace the Product or parts (including discontinued items) with a product or parts which may be new, refurbished, reconditioned or returned, including items manufactured by Koss or others, but which are comparable in function and performance to the original product or part. Unless otherwise required by law, repair and replacement services and repaired, replaced, reconditioned or refurbished parts and/or products are not warranted and any (if any) implied warranties, conditions or duties regarding such services are hereby disclaimed.
EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES and LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Except as provided in the above “Exclusive Remedy” section, Koss shall not be liable to you or anyone else for any loss, injury or damages relating to the warranted product, this warranty, any implied warranty or condition, or to any remedy elected by Koss, including (without limitation) attempts to repair or replace the product. Also, Koss shall not be liable for any general, special, direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, exemplary, punitive, or other damages of any kind or nature whatsoever (except for the damages described in the “EXCLUSIVE REMEDY” section above). The Exclusive Remedy elected by Koss shall constitute Koss’ only liability to you or anyone else whether such liability is based on contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise. The foregoing limitations and exclusions shall apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
No Koss agent or employee is authorized to modify this warranty. If any term of this warranty is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the remaining terms shall remain enforceable. The laws of the State of Wisconsin, USA, govern this warranty.
NOTE: Avoid playing the Product at high volume levels. Some studies have concluded that prolonged and extensive exposure to noise in excess of 95dB may impair hearing. Never use the Product while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas. Exercise caution if you are wearing the Product while engaged in activities such as walking, race-walking, jogging, cycling, etc. which may bring you in contact with vehicular traffic.
