Product Limited Warranty
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Trimble
Navigation Limited (“Trimble”) warrants that for a period of
(1) year from date of purchase this Trimble product (the
“Product”) will substantially conform to Trimble's publicly
available specifications for the Product and that the
hardware and any storage media components of the Product
will be substantially free from defects in materials and
workmanship.
Product Software
Product software, whether built into hardware circuitry as
firmware, provided as a standalone computer software
product, embedded in flash memory, or stored on magnetic
or other media, is licensed and not sold. If accompanied by
a separate end user license agreement, use of any such
software will be subject to the terms of such end user license
agreement (including any differing limited warranty terms,
exclusions and limitations), which shall control over the
terms and conditions set forth in this limited warranty).
Software Updates
During the limited warranty period you will be entitled to
receive such Fix Updates and Minor Updates to the Product
software that Trimble releases and makes commercially
available and for which it does not charge separately, subject
to the procedures for delivery to purchasers of Trimble
products generally. If you have purchased the Product from
an authorized Trimble distributor rather than from Trimble
directly, Trimble may, at its option, forward the software Fix
Update or Minor Update to the Trimble distributor for final
distribution to you. Major Upgrades, new products, or
substantially new software releases, as identified by Trimble
are expressly excluded from this update process and limited
warranty. Receipt of software updates shall not serve to
extend the limited warranty period.
For purposes of this warranty the following definitions shall
apply: (1) “Fix Update” means an error correction or other
update created to fix a previous software version that does
not substantially conform to its published specifications; (2)
“Minor Update” occurs when enhancements are made to
current features in a software program; and (3) “Major
Upgrade” occurs when significant new features are added to
software, or when a new product containing new features
replaces the further development of a current product line.
Trimble reserves the right to determine, in its sole discretion,
what constitutes a significant new feature and Major
Upgrade.
Warranty Remedies
If the Trimble Product fails during the warranty period for
reasons covered by this Limited Warranty and you notify
Trimble of such failure during the warranty period, Trimble at
its option will repair OR replace the nonconforming Product,
