WARRANTY INFORMATION
In Australia, consumers are protected from the consequences of faulty or defective products by the Australian Competition and Consumer Act. Products must be fit for purpose and free from material and manufacturing defects. Alpine offers warranty terms that, in many cases, exceed the basic requirements, and different product types have different warranty periods and conditions. Warranty applies from the date of purchase. This guide provides a reference as to what is covered by warranty and for how long.
