MAKING A LIMITED WARRANTY CLAIM:

Tides may require Buyer to provide the part(s) believed to be defective for examination. If Tides approves the warranty claim, Tides at its option, will either provide the Buyer with a replacement part(s) or reimburse the Buyer for the original sales price of the returned part. This is Buyer’s sole remedy for the returned part. Contact Tides for more information.
