Limited Remedies
①If the product exhibits material and/or workmanship defects within the limited warranty period, SMAD will cover the cost of the replacement parts free of charge to the customer. However, the customer is responsible for all shipping or transportation costs associated with warranty services, including returning the product to us, which must be prepaid. Additionally, the customer bears the risk of loss or damage to the product during transportation until it is delivered and formally received by SMAD.
②During the warranty period, repair is primarily prioritized, and generally, free replacement of new products is not supported as a principle. If the product is confirmed as irreparable during the warranty period, a new product may be replaced depending on the situation.
