CONSUMER WARRANTY INFORMATION
Worldwide, Guillemot Corporation S.A., whose registered office is located at Place du Granier, B.P.
97143, 35571 Chantepie, France (hereinafter “Guillemot”) warrants to the consumer that this
Thrustmaster product shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship, for a warranty period
which corresponds to the time limit to bring an action for conformity with respect to this product. In the
countries of the European Union, this corresponds to a period of two (2) years from delivery of the
Thrustmaster product. In other countries, the warranty period corresponds to the time limit to bring an
action for conformity with respect to the Thrustmaster product according to applicable laws of the
country in which the consumer was domiciled on the date of purchase of the Thrustmaster product (if
no such action exists in the corresponding country, then the warranty period shall be one (1) year from
the original date of purchase of the Thrustmaster product).
Notwithstanding the above, rechargeable batteries are covered by a warranty period of six (6) months
from the date of original purchase.
Should the product appear to be defective during the warranty period, immediately contact Technical
Support, who will indicate the procedure to follow. If the defect is confirmed, the product must be
returned to its place of purchase (or any other location indicated by Technical Support).
Within the context of this warranty, the consumer’s defective product shall, at Technical Support’s option, be
either replaced or returned to working order. If, during the warranty period, the Thrustmaster product is subject to
such reconditioning, any period of at least seven (7) days during which the product is out of use shall be added
to the remaining warranty period (this period runs from the date of the consumer’s request for intervention or
from the date on which the product in question is made available for reconditioning, if the date on which the
product is made available for reconditioning is subsequent to the date of the request for intervention). If permitted
under applicable law, the full liability of Guillemot and its subsidiaries (including for consequential damages) is
limited to the return to working order or the replacement of the Thrustmaster product. If permitted under
applicable law, Guillemot disclaims all warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
This warranty shall not apply: (1) if the product has been modified, opened, altered, or has suffered damage as a
result of inappropriate or abusive use, negligence, an accident, normal wear, or any other cause unrelated to a
material or manufacturing defect (including, but not limited to, combining the Thrustmaster product with any
unsuitable element, including in particular power supplies, rechargeable batteries, chargers, or any other
elements not supplied by Guillemot for this product); (2) if the product has been used for any use other than
home use, including for professional or commercial purposes (game rooms, training, competitions, for example);
(3) in the event of failure to comply with the instructions provided by Technical Support; (4) to software, said
software being subject to a specific warranty; (5) to consumables (elements to be replaced over the product’s
lifespan: disposable batteries, audio headset or headphone ear pads, for example); (6) to accessories (cables,
cases, pouches, bags, wrist-straps, for example); (7) if the product was sold at public auction.
This warranty is nontransferable.
The consumer’s legal rights with respect to laws applicable to the sale of consumer goods in his or her
country are not affected by this warranty.
