We shall in no event be liable for death, injuries to
persons or property, or for incidental, contingent,
special or consequential damages arising from the

To take advantage of this warranty, the prod-
uct or part must be returned to us with transporta-

if we cannot readily and quickly provide you with a
replacement. We will return repaired products at our
expense, but if we determine there is no defect, or
that the defect resulted from causes not within the
scope of our warranty, then you must bear the cost of
returning the product.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights
and you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state.
