Appendix  
Limited warranty  
Kodak warrants its digital cameras and accessories (excluding batteries) to be free  
from malfunctions and defects in both materials and workmanship for the warranty  
period specified on your Kodak Product packaging. Retain the original dated sales  
receipt. Proof of purchase date is required with any request for warranty repair.  
Limited warranty coverage  
Warranty service is only available from within the country where the Products were  
originally purchased. You may be required to ship Products, at your expense, to the  
authorized service facility for the country where the Products were purchased. Kodak  
will repair or replace Products if they fail to function properly during the warranty  
period, subject to any conditions and/or limitations stated herein. Warranty service  
will include all labor as well as any necessary adjustments and/or replacement parts. If  
Kodak is unable to repair or replace a Product, Kodak will, at its option, refund the  
purchase price paid for the Product provided the Product has been returned to Kodak  
along with proof of the purchase price paid. Repair, replacement, or refund of the  
purchase price are the sole remedies under the warranty. If replacement parts are  
used in making repairs, those parts may be remanufactured, or may contain  
remanufactured materials. If it is necessary to replace the entire Product, it may be  
replaced with a remanufactured Product. Remanufactured Products, parts and  
materials are warranted for the remaining warranty term of the original Product, or 90  
days after the date of repair or replacement, whichever is longer.  
Limitations  
This warranty does not cover circumstances beyond Kodak's control. This warranty  
does not apply when failure is due to shipping damage, accident, alteration,  
modification, unauthorized service, misuse, abuse, use with incompatible accessories  
or attachments (such as third party ink or ink tanks), failure to follow Kodak's  
operation, maintenance or repacking instructions, failure to use items supplied by  
Kodak (such as adapters and cables), or claims made after the duration of this  
warranty. Kodak makes no other express or implied warranty for this product. In the  
event that the exclusion of any implied warranty is ineffective under the law, the  
duration of the implied warranty will be the length of the express warranty period

Appendix  
specified on your Kodak product packaging. The option of repair, replacement, or  
refund is Kodak's only obligation. Kodak will not be responsible for any special,  
consequential or incidental damages resulting from the sale, purchase, or use of this  
product regardless of the cause. Liability for any special, consequential or incidental  
damages (including but not limited to loss of revenue or profit, downtime costs, loss  
of the use of the equipment, cost of substitute equipment, facilities or services, or  
claims of your customers for such damages resulting from the purchase, use, or failure  
of the Product), regardless of cause or for breach of any written or implied warranty is  
expressly disclaimed.  
Your rights  
Some states or jurisdictions do not allow exclusion or limitation of incidental or  
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.  
Some states or jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty  
lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific  
rights, and you may have other rights which vary from state to state or by jurisdiction.  
Outside the United States and Canada  
In countries other than the United States and Canada, the terms and conditions of  
this warranty may be different. Unless a specific Kodak warranty is communicated to  
the purchaser in writing by a Kodak company, no warranty or liability exists beyond  
any minimum requirements imposed by law, even though defect, damage, or loss may  
be by negligence or other act.

Appendix  
Regulatory compliance  
FCC compliance and advisory  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B  
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to  
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential  
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy  
and, if not installed or used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful  
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that  
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause  
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by  
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the  
interference by one or more of the following measures: 1) reorient or relocate the  
receiving antenna; 2) increase the separation between the equipment and the  
receiver; 3) connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to  
which the receiver is connected; 4) consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV  
technician for additional suggestions. Any changes or modifications not expressly  
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to  
operate the equipment. Where shielded interface cables have been provided with the  
product or specified additional components or accessories elsewhere defined to be  
used with the installation of the product, they must be used in order to ensure  
compliance with FCC regulation.
