Essential Information

√ The warranty period for Return & Refund Service, Replacement Service and Warranty Repair Service may vary with respect to your product, the part experiencing issues, or the country of purchase. Please refer to support team of us for the warranty period for your product and products in your country.
√ You are responsible for shipping costs when sending product(s) for return, repair or replacement.
√ VIONEER will examine the returned product(s) to identify the problem. If the problem qualifies for service under this policy, VIONEER will bear the cost for refund, replacement, or repair and return the product(s) at our cost to you.
√ If VIONEER determines that the issue in question is not covered by this VIONEER After-Sales Policy, you will have to apply for Customer Paid Repair Service. VIONEER will not start repair until you agree to the cost for repair quoted by VIONEER. If you disagree with the cost for repair, VIONEER will return the product(s) with you burdening the cost of return shipping.
√ Please note that products and components presented for repair may be replaced by refurbished goods of the same type rather than being repaired. These refurbished goods have been tested and are similar to brand new goods in function and appearance. If any refurbished parts or units do not meet our quality assurance requirements, brand new parts or units will be issued. Any replaced parts may come with different serial numbers.
√ Please be aware that where a product is capable of retaining user-generated data, such data may be lost during the repair process. We therefore recommend that you back up your data prior to any repair.
√ Please note that data analysis service will not be provided after warranty expiration.
√ Customers can obtain warranty service only at a designated VIONEER repair center in the region where he/she purchased the product. However, depending on part availability, customers can obtain cross-regional repair service at an additional charge.
√ If a customer in Region A wants to send in their products to a designated VIONEER repair center in the Region B without informing VIONEER, the customs duty, customs clearance, and other costs incurred will be covered by the customer.
√ If the device is water-damaged, its performance may be severely affected, and the device will be beyond repair. So a replacement service is provided, instead of repair services, if the product is sent in.
√ Before sending your product for repair, please remove any customized decorations and items on it (including but not limited to decorative stickers, UAS stickers, paintings, etc.). VIONEER will not be responsible for any damage or loss that may occur to these customized decorations and items.
√ To guarantee your legal rights, please check whether your product is intact (check whether any damage has occurred to your product during transportation) when signing for it. If the product has a defect, please report it to us within seven (7) days of signing for it; or it will be deemed that the product you signed for is intact and fully functional.
