Motion Media warrants the Videophones supplied hereunder against defects in
materials and workmanship for 15 months from the date of shipment by Motion

option, repair or replace a returned product found to be faulty.
This warranty does not apply if the product has been installed or used other
than strictly in accordance with operating and other instructions issued by
Motion Media, nor if it has been misused, accidentally or wilfully damaged,
modified in any way or repaired by other than Motion Media or its authorised
agent. In particular, it does not apply if the product has been connected to an

reasonable charges made by Motion Media. Where prices or charges have been

time. All carriage, insurance and duty charges shall be paid by Talk Visual
