Rocket Fish RF-HTS205 Use and maintenance manual

Rated Capabilities Limitation
Surge Suppressor’s are designed to eliminate disrupting and damaging
eects of momentary (less than 1ms) voltage spikes or impulses from
lightning or other power transients. If it can be shown that a voltage spike
lasting longer than 1ms has occurred, the occurrence will be deemed
outside the rated capabilities of the Surge Suppressor and the Limited
Warranty and Connected Equipment Guarantee are void.
Exclusion of Consequential and Other Damages.
The sole and exclusive remedies of the Initial Customer are those provided
by the Limited Warranty and Connected Equipment Guarantee. This
exclusion of other express warranties applies to written and oral express
warranties. Rocketfish excludes any liability for personal injury under the
Limited Warranty and Connected Equipment Guarantee. Rocketfish
excludes any liability for direct, indirect, special, incidental or consequen-
tial damages, whether for damage to or loss of property (EXCEPT FOR AND
ONLY FOR) the specific limited agreement of Rocketfish to provide certain
warranty benefits regarding Connected Equipment under the Rocketfish
Connected Equipment Guarantee), loss of profits, business interruption,
loss of information or data. This exclusion applies even though damage or
loss is caused by negligence or other fault.
NOTE: Some States or Provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not
apply to you.
DO NOT USE FOR MEDICAL OR LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT OR
OTHER HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES OR WITH AQUARIUMS
Rocketfish does not sell the Surge Suppressor for use in high-risk activities
or with aquariums.
The Surge Suppressor is not designed or intended for use in hazardous
environments requiring fail-safe performance, including the operation of
nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, air traffic
control, weapons systems, life support or medical applications, or for use
in any circumstance in which the failure of the Surge Suppressor could
lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe physical or property
damage, or that would aect operation or safety of any medical or life
support device (collectively,“High Risk Activities”). Rocketfish expressly
disclaims any express or implied warranty of fitness for High Risk Activities
or with aquariums. Rocketfish does not authorize use of any Surge
Suppressor in any High Risk Activities or with Aquariums. ANY SUCH USE
IS IMPROPER AND IS A MISUSE OF A ROCKETFISH SURGE SUPPRESSOR.
The Limited Warranty and the Connected Equipment Guarantee are
governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Minnesota,
without reference to conflict of law principles.
The application of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
Making a Connected Equipment Guarantee Claim
To make a claim for damage to Connected Equipment under the
Connected Equipment Guarantee, you must do the following:
1. Provide reasonable proof of purchase (for example, a sales receipt) that
establishes you as the Initial Customer of the Surge Suppressor.
2. Call Rocketfish at [phone] (toll free) within fifteen (15) days of
the date of the event for which you wish to make a Connected
Equipment claim.
3. When you contact Rocketfish, identify the Surge Suppressor (by model
number) and the item(s) of Connected Equipment (by manufacturer and
model). Have information on all applicable insurance or other resources of
recovery/payment that are available to the Initial Customer and the name
of the power utility supplier for the location of the Connected Equipment.
Rocketfish will then send you additional instructions and the appropriate
claim forms.
Rocketfish’s Duties
Rocketfish will inspect and examine the Surge Suppressor and the item(s)
of Connected Equipment (or at Rocketfish’s election, your written
statement and repair cost estimate for those item(s)). You must return the
Surge Suppressor for inspection.
If the damage to Connected Equipment is covered by the Connected
Equipment Guarantee, Rocketfish’s sole obligation and the Initial
Customer’s exclusive remedy is: repair (or pay the cost of repair) or
replacement of the Connected Equipment by Rocketfish; or at the option
of Rocketfish, as permitted by law, payment by Rocketfish to the Initial
Customer the Agreed Damage Amount for the Connected Equipment. The
“Agreed Damage Amount” for all items of the Initial Customer’s Connected
Equipment shall be the lesser of the amount determined under Clause (1)
or (2) below, reduced by any amounts described in Clause (3) below:
1. The fair market value of the Connected Equipment as established by the
lower of (a) the average price the same or similar items are being sold for
on eBay, (b) the price list of Orion Blue Book (or if such price list is no
longer published, a published or announced price list reasonably selected
by Rocketfish), or (c) the lowest price the same or similar items can be
purchased for in the United States; or
2. The Aggregate Limit for all Connected Equipment as set forth below,
minus:
3. The amount(s) of all payment you have or are entitled to receive from
insurance, other warranties, extended warranties, or from other sources or
persons for the Connected Equipment or damage to such equipment so
that Rocketfish’s maximum liability shall be reduced to reflect all such
other payments or sources of recovery.
If Rocketfish replaces the connected equipment or pays the Agreed
Damage Amount to the Initial Customer, the Initial Customer shall transfer
all item(s) to Rocketfish without warranty by the Initial Customer, but free
of lien or other interest.
Rocketfish reserves the right to inspect the Surge Suppressor, the
Connected Equipment, and the site where the event occurred. All costs of
shipping the Surge Suppressor and the Connected Equipment to and from
Rocketfish for inspection shall be borne solely by the Initial Customer.
Rocketfish reserves the right to negotiate the cost and choose the facility at
which any repairs will take place, and Rocketfish must be notified and
approve any repair facility before any Connected Equipment is serviced.
Any repair or modification of the Connected Equipment or Surge Suppres-
sor by a facility or entity not approved by Rocketfish voids this Connected
Equipment Guarantee. If Rocketfish determines, in its sole discretion, that it
is impractical to ship the damaged equipment to Rocketfish, Rocketfish
may designate, in its sole discretion, an equipment repair facility to inspect
and estimate the cost to repair such equipment. The cost, if any, of shipping
the equipment to and from such repair facility and of such estimate shall be
borne solely by the Initial Customer. Damaged equipment must remain
available for inspection until the claim is finalized. Whenever claims are
settled, Rocketfish reserves the right to be subrogated under any existing
insurance policies the claimant may have Province.
If you are the Initial Customer, you are asked to read the following terms
and conditions carefully before using the Surge Suppressor. By using the
Surge Suppressor you consent to be bound by and become a party to the
terms and conditions of the Limited Warranty and Connected Equipment
Guarantee provided in this document. If you do not agree to the terms and
conditions of the Limited Warranty and Connected Equipment Guarantee,
you should return the Surge Suppressor for a full refund prior to using it.
CONNECTED EQUIPMENT AGREEMENT
The Initial Customer is protected for the lifetime of the Surge Suppressor
against certain losses due to the Surge Suppressor’s defective material or
workmanship that is directly and properly connected to electronic
equipment (referred to as the “Connected Equipment”), subject to certain
terms and conditions provided here.
The Connected Equipment Guarantee is not“first dollar”coverage.
Rocketfish’s obligation is reduced by any amounts that the Initial
Customer is entitled to recover from other sources regarding the
Connected Equipment, including insurance, other warranty, or extended
warranty coverage, whether or not the Initial Customer makes a claim for
recovery, including but not limited to a claim under any applicable
insurance, other warranty, or extended warranty.
