Fluke warrants that software will operate substantially in accordance with its functional specifications for 90 days and that it has been properly recorded on non-defective media. Fluke does not warrant that it will be error free or operate without interruption. Fluke authorized resellers shall have no authority to extend a greater or different warranty on behalf of Fluke.
