discretion, repair or replace any product not operating as warranted
with a similar or functionally equivalent product, during the
applicable warranty term. SMC will endeavour to repair or replace
any product returned under warranty within 30 days of receipt of

become obsolete and SMC will, at its discretion, replace an older

Lifetime * warranty by registering new products within 30 days of
purchase from SMC or its Authorized Reseller. Registration can be
accomplished via the enclosed product registration card or online

limited warranty. The Limited Lifetime warranty covers a product
during the Life of that Product, which is defined as a period of 5
years from the date of purchase of the product from SMC or its
authorized reseller.
All products that are replaced become the property of SMC.
Replacement products may be either new or reconditioned. Any
replaced or repaired product carries, either a 30-day limited
warranty or the remainder of the initial warranty, whichever is
longer. SMC is not responsible for any custom software or firmware,
configuration information, or memory data of Customer contained
