What This Limited Warranty Covers

Should your altimeter fail due to a manufacturing defect, Freefall Data Systems LLC will repair or replace it, or its defective parts, free of charge for two years from the date of purchase. This Limited Warranty applies only to the original purchaser with proof of purchase, and only covers failures due to defects in materials and workmanship that occur during normal skydiving operations within the two-year warranty period.

What This Limited Warranty Does Not Cover

This Limited Warranty does not cover damage or failure resulting from an accident, hard impact, water damage, neglect, misuse, mishandling, or modification of the product, or any failure caused by operation of the product outside the scope of its specifications. This warranty applies to our altimeters' control units. It does not cover StickyLights, which are designed to be adhered to other manufacturers' products and are disposable by their nature. Altimeters obtained through giveaways and raffles are not covered by this Limited Warranty. Our altimeters are manufactured for skydiving only.

How to Obtain Warranty Service

Register your product under Product Registration and keep your proof of purchase. To make a warranty claim, contact FDS at sales@freefalldatasystems.com with your proof of purchase and a description of the failure. Visit the Repairs page for more information.

Limitation of Liability

By using our products, you accept full responsibility for their use and agree that you are solely responsible for each skydive you make as well as your own safety, as described in our Warning. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Freefall Data Systems LLC's total liability is limited to the repair or replacement of the product or, at FDS's option, a refund of the purchase price, and FDS shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages arising from the use of, or inability to use, its products, whether or not the product is defective.

Any implied warranties, including the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are limited in duration to the two-year duration of this written warranty. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
