Information
What this Warranty
Covers & Who it Applies
to: The limited
warranty
provided
by BSH Home Appliances
Corporation
(Bosch ®) in this State-
ment
of Limited
Product
Warranty
applies
only to Bosch ® dishwashers
("Product")
sold to you, the first
using purchaser,
provided
that the
Product
was purchased:
(1) for your normal,
household
(non-commercial)
use, and has in fact at all times only been used for normal
house-
hold purposes;
(2) new at retail (not a display,
"as is", or previously
returned
model),
and not for resale, or commercial
use; and (3) within
the
United
States
or Canada,
and has at all times
remained
within
the country
of original
purchase.
The warranties
stated
herein apply only to the
first
purchaser
of the Product
and are not transferable.
• Please make sure to return your registration
card; while
not necessary
to effectuate
warranty
coverage,
it is the best way for Bosch ® to notify
you in the unlikely event of a safety notice
or product
recall.
How Long the Warranty
Lasts: Bosch ® warrants
that the Product
is free from defects
in materials
and workmanship
for a period
of three
hun-
dred sixty five (365)
days from the date of purchase.
The foregoing
timeline
begins
to run upon the date of purchase,
and shall not be stalled,
tolled,
extended,
or suspended,
for any reason whatsoever.
Labor and shipping
costs are included in this basic coverage.
Extended
Limited
Warranty:
Bosch ® also provides
these additional
limited
warranties:
• 5 Year Limited
Warranty
on Electronics:
Bosch ® will repair or replace
any Bosch ® microprocessor
or printed
circuit
board
if it proves to be
defective
in materials
or workmanship
(excludes
labor charges).
• 5 Year Limited
Warranty
on Dish Racks: Bosch ® will replace the upper or lower dish rack (excluding
rack components),
if the rack proves
defective
in materials
or workmanship
(excludes
labor charges).
• Lifetime
Warranty
against
Stainless
Steel Rust Through:
Bosch ® will replace your dishwasher

the same model
or a current
model that is
substantially
equivalent
or better
in functionality,
if the inner liner should
rust through
(excludes
labor charges).
• Bosch ® will replace the stainless
steel door if the door should
rust through
(excludes
labor charges).
The foregoing
timeline
begins to run upon the date of purchase,
and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended,
or suspended,
for any reason whatsoever.
Repair/Replace
as Your Exclusive
Remedy:
During
this warranty
period,
Bosch ® or one of its authorized
service
providers
will repair
your
Product
without
charge
to you (subject
to certain
limitations
stated
herein)
if your Product
proves to have been manufactured
with
a defect
in
materials
or workmanship.
If reasonable
attempts
to repair the Product
have been made without
success,
then Bosch ® will replace your Prod-
uct (upgraded
models
may be available
to you, in the sole discretion
of Bosch ®, for an additional
charge).
All removed
parts
and components
shall become
the property
of Bosch ® at its sole option.
All replaced
and/or
repaired
parts shall assume the identity of the original
part for pur-
poses of this warranty
and this warranty
shall
not be extended
with respect to such parts.
Bosch®'s
sole liability and responsibility
hereunder
is to repair manufacturer-defective
Product
only, using a Bosch®-authorized
service
provider
during
normal
business
hours. For safety and
property
damage
concerns,
Bosch ® highly recommends
that you do not attempt
to repair the Product
yourself,
or use an unauthorized
ser-
vicer; Bosch ® will have no responsibility
or liability for repairs or work performed
by a non-authorized
servicer.
If you choose
to have someone
other
than
an authorized
service
provider
work on your
Product,
THIS WARRANTY WILL AUTOMATICALLY
BECOME
NULL AND VOID. Autho-
rized service
providers
are those
persons
or companies
that have been specially
trained
on Bosch ® products,
and who possess,
in the opinion
of Bosch ® , a superior
reputation
for customer
service
and technical
ability
(note
that they are independent
entities
and are not agents,
part-
ners, affiliates
or representatives
of Bosch®).
Notwithstanding
the foregoing,
Bosch ® will not incur any liability, or have responsibility,
for the
Product
if it is located
in a remote
area (more
than
100 miles from
an authorized
service
provider)
or is reasonably
inaccessible,
hazardous,
threatening,
or treacherous
locale, surroundings,
or environment;
in any such event,
if you request,
Bosch ® would
still pay for labor and parts
and ship the parts to the nearest
authorized
service
provider,
but you would
still be fully liable and responsible
for any travel time or other
spe-
cial charges
by the service
company,
assuming
they agree to make the service
call.
Out of Warranty
Product:
Bosch ® is under no obligation,
at law or otherwise,
to provide
you with
any concessions,
including
repairs,
pro-
rates, or Product
replacement,
once this warranty
has expired.
