MOTU LIMITED WARRANTY ON HARDWARE

Mark of the Unicorn, Inc. (“MOTU”) warrants this equipment against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for a period of TWO (2) YEARS from the date of original retail purchase. The Warranty Term begins on the date of purchase from an authorized MOTU reseller and applies solely to the original retail purchaser, who must activate the warranty by creating a user account at motu.com to register the product within 90 days of purchase. This warranty applies only to hardware products; MOTU software is licensed and warranted pursuant to separate written statements.

If you discover a defect, first contact MOTU technical support by phone, email or web (motu.com/support) to verify the warranty on your MOTU equipment and obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA). No service will be performed on any product returned without prior authorization. MOTU will, at its option, repair or replace the product at no charge to you, provided you return it during the warranty period as instructed by MOTU, with transportation charges prepaid. If you purchased your equipment in any country other than the US or Canada, you will be instructed to return the equipment to an authorized MOTU distributor or representative in the country of purchase. You must use the product’s original packing material for the shipment, and insure the shipment for the value of the product. Please include your name, address, phone number, email address, a description of the problem, and the original, dated bill of sale with the returned unit; do NOT include additional accessories such as cables, power supplies, manuals, etc. Please clearly print the Return Merchandise Authorization Number on the outside of the box below the shipping address. Repaired or replaced equipment will be returned to you via UPS Ground prepaid. (Expedited shipping methods such as UPS Next day, 2-day, and 3-day services are available for an additional cost.) Repaired equipment will be warranted for a period equal to the remainder of the original Limited Warranty or for 90 days, whichever is longer. Defective units must be shipped to MOTU within 30 days of receiving an RMA number. If you haven't shipped your unit within 30 days, you must be issued a new RMA number. If necessary, please contact our Support department to receive a new RMA number. Your interface must still be within the two year warranty period at the time of requesting a replacement.
