the product will be repaired free of charge for the purchaser.
Without prejudice to the provisions of art. 130 Legislative Decree 206/05, in particular as regards the objective
impossibility or excessive cost of the repair.
If the product is returned after expiry of the warranty period or the defect is not covered by the warranty, or the product is
free from defects, Dimsport S.r.l. will charge the purchaser for transport, administrative and technical costs sustained.

Product return procedure

For any type of repair work on products, the purchaser must contact the Dimsport Technical Support Service to request
the R.M.A. number, notifying in writing, when requesting the R.M.A.:
- product serial no.
- fault encountered
The Dimsport Technical Support Service will carry out tests to verify the entity of the problem; this will be followed by an
email communication with the R.M.A. number and the specific instructions to be followed. The R.M.A. number shall be
indicated in the document accompanying the goods and on the packaging.

Limits on repairs carried out under warranty

The Dimsport S.r.l. warranty does not cover defects occurring beyond the term of duration of the warranty, defects that
did not exist at the time of delivery of the product, defects resulting from negligent or careless use, incorrect installation
or maintenance, incorrect storage and/or conservation, maintenance or technical work carried out by non-authorised
personnel, damage due to transport or corrosion, or products whose serial numbers have been altered or cancelled.
Merely by way of example, the following are excluded from the warranty:
 aesthetic damage to the product such as scratches, dents, chips or nicks both to the outer shell and to the
display, in addition to damage attributable to knocks and/or dropping;
 damage caused by modification of the product or alteration (hardware or software) of it, without the prior written
authorisation of Dimsport;
 defects resulting from accidents, natural calamities or other causes including rain, hail, lightning and fire.

The warranty does not cover damages which are a consequence of current overloads due to the network to which the
product is connected or caused by other equipment, systems or components when improperly connected or used without
authorisation.
The materials subject to wear (including capacitors, batteries, LCD screens) are specifically excluded from this warranty,
unless the wear or damage is attributable to a material or manufacturing defect.
Any breakage of seals or tampering with the product will result in forfeiture of the warranty.

Technical support beyond the warranty terms

The product is supplied with a 24-month warranty from the date reported on the purchase invoice.
If the product manifests operating problems beyond the warranty terms, or the warranty does not apply, the purchaser
shall contact the Dimsport Technical Support Service in order to agree the procedure for sending said product for repair
or inspection.
In the event of repairs carried out not covered by the warranty, the costs for repair, inspection, software updating or any
reset will be sustained by the purchaser.
Dimsport reserves the right, without previous agreement with the purchaser, not to carry out the repair when reset or
repair of the product are uneconomic, taking account of the value of the product and the cost of the work required.

Repair work not authorised by Dimsport – tampering

CAUTION! The equipment is sold with tamper-proof seals bearing the wording “Warranty void if seal is broken”. Removal
of these seals and/or modification of any part of the hardware or software will entail the forfeiture of any warranty
provided on the product by these conditions and suspension of performance of the services scheduled by the contract
with the user. The purchaser of the product may carry out any work for the replacement of individual parts and/or
maintenance/updating only after express written authorisation by the Dimsport Technical Support Service.
CAUTION! Dimsport may consider the performance of non-authorised work on its hardware and/or removal of the seals
as attempts at tampering aimed at violation of the current laws concerning protection of industrial and intellectual
property rights, reserving the right to inform the competent authorities of said actions. In this case the author of said
actions may not plead good faith in his/her defence.

INTRODUCTION
NEWGENIUS is the first Touch&Map tool allowing the serial reading and
programming of the memory of the ECU (electronic control unit) managing the vehicle
engine. Its STAND ALONE conception and its TOUCH SCREEN panel make it a
unique tool. Being an INDEPENDENT tool, NewGenius does not need to be
connected to a PC during the reading and the programming procedures, thus
avoiding dangerous blocks or slowdowns caused by the multitasking operative
system of the PC. Moreover it is a particular easy and user-friendly tool thanks to its
practical TOUCH SCREEN panel.
To grant the highest standards of safety, NewGenius is equipped with a battery which
– should an accidental disconnection from the OBDII socket happen during
programming – allows to easily restore the communication with the ECU, as all the
DIMSPORT-branded serial programming protocols grant.
This new revolutionary tool supports CAN systems, as well as K LINE, L LINE, and
J1850.

case, you just go back to the menu of the serial protocol and select the other communication channel.
