Meade Limited Warranty
Every Meade telescope and telescope accessory is warranted
by Meade Instruments Corp (“Meade”) to be free of defects in
materials and workmanship for a period of ONE YEAR from the
date of original purchase in the U.S.A. and Canada. Meade will
repair or replace a product, or part thereof, found by Meade to
be defective, provided the defective part is returned to Meade,
freight-prepaid, with proof of purchase. This warranty applies to
the original purchaser only and is non-transferable. Meade
products purchased outside North America are not included in
this warranty, but are covered under separate warranties issued
by Meade international distributors.
RGA Number Required: Prior to the return of any product or part,
a Return Goods Authorization (RGA) number must be obtained
from Meade by writing, or calling (800) 626-3233. Each returned
part or product must include a written statement detailing the
nature of the claimed defect, as well as the owner’s name,
address, and phone number.
This warranty is not valid in cases where the product has been
abused or mishandled, where unauthorized repairs have been
attempted or performed, or where depreciation of the product is
due to normal wear-and-tear. Meade specifically disclaims
special, indirect, or consequential damages or lost profit which may
result from a breach of this warranty. Any implied warranties which
cannot be disclaimed are hereby limited to a term of one year
from the date of original retail purchase.
This warranty gives you specific rights. You may have other
rights which vary from state to state.
Meade reserves the right to change product specifications or to
discontinue products without notice.
WARNING!
Never use a Meade ® Telescope to look at
the Sun! Looking at or near the Sun will
cause instant and irreversible damage to
your eye. Eye damage is often painless, so
there is no warning to the observer that
damage has occurred until it is too late. Do
not point the telescope or its finder at or near
the Sun. Do not look through the telescope
or its finder as it is moving. Children should
always have adult supervision while
observing.
