Upon pickup, the Customer acknowledges the equipment is in good working order and accepts the rental condition as is. In the event equipment is shipped to the Customer, Customer failure to notify Bluewater Photo of any defects or problems with the equipment within 24 hours of receipt shall be conclusively deemed as acknowledgment that all equipment has passed customer approval and is in good working order. The Customer agrees to keep and maintain all of the rental equipment in good condition and assumes full responsibility for all the equipment and supplies until the all rented items are returned. The Customer agrees not to remove, cover, alter or deface any tags, serial numbers or nameplates on the equipment. To prevent damage, Customer agrees to test the housing underwater prior to use with camera and lens equipment. If o-ring sealed compartments are opened, Customer agrees to take appropriate care to avoid water droplets from entering and further agrees to carefully inspect, clean, and service any o-ring involved, as well as the corresponding sealing surfaces. Upon completion of each dive, Customer agrees to rinse all equipment in fresh water, protect the equipment from any impact, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and/or high temperature, and take precaution of any other circumstance that could damage the rented equipment. In the event of any loss or damage to the rented equipment regardless of the reason, the Customer agrees to fully cover the cost of the repairs and/or the replacement value as determined by the manufacturer’s list price at the time of said loss.
