Further, verbal or informal specifications will not be covered by the Warranty. To be enforceable, a product specification must be stated in SAF official literature. No product shall be considered defective or otherwise in breach of the Warranty simply because it needs to be adapted to or otherwise does not comply with the laws and regulations (including frequency range) of the customer’s home country or jurisdiction.
