For example; A Clock has a total run-time of 9 days. An issue may not present itself until day 6 or 7, and then it may take a bit of time to make the required adjustments and then at the very least it would have to run out for the full 9-day run-time, and in a lot of circumstances multiple times to ensure the issues were remedied. NOTE: Warranty Repairs are exceedingly rare.
