Limited Warranty Policy
J.N. Taylor & Company Pty Ltd (“JNT”) accepts the manufacturers limited warranty responsibilities ONLY for equipment imported by ourselves and distributed through our authorised dealers. Unless prior warranty authorisation has been received from our Principals, JNT does NOT accept any warranty responsibilities for equipment purchased outside of Australia or through a non-authorised reseller. For a full list of our products and authorised Australian distributors please check our web site: www.furuno.com.au
All products imported by JNT comply with the Australian Communications & Media Authorities C-Tick program. The JNT ACMA C-Tick Declaration of Conformity does not cover equipment that has been imported by a business or individual from an overseas supplier.
The Limited Warranty commences from date of purchase of products by the original owner. Products or components that are represented as being waterproof are guaranteed to satisfy the IP Rating specified in the equipment specifications only, for and within the limits of the warranty period stated above.
Subject to the manufacturer’s warranty, authorisation and acceptance, JNT will itself, or through an authorised agent, provide warranty in accordance with the Manufacturer’s Limited Warranty Policy, provided the work is to be carried out during normal working hours and within a radius of 50 kilometres of the service location for equipment that cannot be easily removed. It is at the discretion of JNT to request that the equipment be returned to its Service Centre or to the nearest Authorised Service Agent for repair. At their own discretion, JNT or its authorised Service Agent will only attend onboard repairs if sufficient proof is given that the equipment has been installed and commissioned by one of its authorised agents. Routine maintenance or normal adjustments are not covered by this warranty.
Suitable proof of purchase showing date of purchase and serial numbers must be made available to JNT or their authorised agent at time of requesting a warranty service.
IMPORTANT:
Products that fall under “The Trailer Boat Range” are a return to base repair / service. Please check with your dealer.
