Spare Parts & Consumable Warranty

For Epson New Zealand, this Warranty applies in addition to the warranties implied by the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act.

 

Spare Parts under $500- (excluding GST):

  • Whether provided during a Warranty repair, under Epson CoverPlus, or bought outside of warranty, these parts have a 90-day warranty or the remainder of the Product's Warranty or Epson CoverPlus, whichever is longer.

Spare Parts over $500- (excluding GST):

  • If provided free during an Warranty repair or under Epson CoverPlus, these parts carry a 90-day warranty or the remainder of the Product's Warranty or Epson CoverPlus, whichever is longer.
  • If purchased outside of Warranty or Epson CoverPlus, these parts have a 12-month warranty.

 

The Spare Parts warranty will apply provided the following conditions are met:

  1. They are purchased and installed by an Epson New Zealand authorised Service Agent
  2. The product the spare parts are fitted to meets the standard Warranty terms and conditions available from Epson’s website
  3. They are purchased and installed by an Epson authorised Service Agent

  5. At the time of installation of the purchased spare parts your Product was not more than five years old from the date of purchase, otherwise the period of warranty will be 90 days.


Consumables
Consumables by their nature have a finite life. The Epson warranty against defects in workmanship or materials is for the lesser of a period of 90 days or the rated life of the Consumable as described in the user’s guide or service manual.

 

In the case of Lamps for projectors, some Lamps carry a specific Warranty for a specific period and this is detailed under our standard product warranty terms and conditions where applicable.



Non-Genuine Items
If You use non-Genuine Lamps, software, replacement Parts or accessories in or with your Product during the relevant warranty period, You may damage the Product and may consequently invalidate this Warranty.


Note to this Warranty

During projection, some points (dots) may appear lit at all times, or they may be dark at all times. This is caused by the characteristics of the LCD panel, and is not a sign of a malfunction. The LCD panel is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology. However, black dots may appear on the panel, or some red, blue or green dots may light extremely brightly at times. Furthermore, sometimes stripe-shaped colour irregularities or brightness irregularities may also appear, which is also not a sign of malfunction. An inherent characteristic of laser projectors is the reduction of brightness over time. Epson New Zealand expects that after 20,000 hours of operation, the brightness of the laser projector will be 50% of the original Specification. This does not represent a failure of the Product.
