Statement Of Limited Product Warranty - Bosch B22CS50SNB - 22.0 cu. ft Use And Care Manual

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY

Bosch Fridge-freezer
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies
to: The limited warranty provided BSH Home
Appliances in this Statement of Limited Product
Warranty applies only to the Bosch Fridge-
freezer ("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 household 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
hundred sixty-five days (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.
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 a reasonable number of attempts to repair the
Product have been made without success, then
Bosch will replace your Product (upgraded
models may be available to you, in Bosch's sole
discretion, 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 purposes 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 un-authorized
servicer; 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. Authorized service
providers are those persons or companies that
have been specially trained on Bosch products,
and who possess, in Bosch's opinion,
a superior reputation for customer service and
technical ability (note that they are independent
entities and are not agents, partners, 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 special
charges by the service company, assuming
they agree to make the service call.
Extended Limited Warranty: Bosch also
provides these additional limited warranties:
2 Year Limited Warranty: Bosch will
repair or replace any component that proves
to be defective in materials or workmanship
(excludes labor charges).
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).
Lifetime Warranty against Stainless
Steel Rust Thrugh: Bosch will repair or
replace any component that proves to be
defective in materials or workmanship
(excludes labor charges).
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.
Warranty Exclusions: The warranty coverage
described herein excludes all defects or
damage that are not the direct fault of Bosch,
including without limitation, one or more of the
following: (1) use of the Product in anything
other than its normal, customary and intended
manner (including without limitation, any form of
commercial use, use or storage of an indoor
product outdoors, use of the Product in
conjunction with air or water-going vessels);
(2) any party's willful misconduct, negligence,
misuse, abuse, accidents, neglect, improper

workings); (4) adjustment, alteration or
modification of any kind; (5) a failure to comply
with any applicable state, local, city, or county
electrical, plumbing and/or building codes,
regulations, or laws, including failure to install

wear and tear, spills of food, liquid, grease
accumulations, or other substances that

freezing temperatures, excessive moisture or
extended exposure to humidity, lightning,
power surges, structural failures surrounding
the appliance, and acts of God. In no event shall
Bosch have any liability or responsibility
whatsoever for damage to surrounding
property, including cabinetry, floors, ceilings,
and other structures or objects around the
Product. Also excluded from this warranty are
scratches, nicks, minor dents, and cosmetic
damages on external surfaces and exposed
parts; Products on which the serial numbers
have been altered, defaced, or removed;
service visits to teach you how to use the
Product, or visits where there is nothing wrong
with the Product; correction of installation
problems (you are solely responsible for any
structure and setting for the Product, including
all electrical, plumbing or other connecting
facilities, for proper foundation/flooring, and for
any alterations including without limitation
cabinetry, walls, floors, shelving, etc.); and
resetting of breakers or fuses.

WARRANTY SETS OUT YOUR EXCLUSIVE
REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO PRODUCT,
WHETHER THE CLAIM ARISES IN
CONTRACT OR TORT (INCLUDING STRICT
LIABILITY, OR NEGLIGENCE) OR
OTHERWISE. THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU

EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. ANY WARRANTY

MEALS, REMODELLING EXPENSES IN
EXCESS OF DIRECT DAMAGES WHICH
ARE DEFINITIVELY CAUSED EXCLUSIVELY
BY Bosch, OR OTHERWISE. SOME STATES
DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR
LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, AND SOME
STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON
HOW LONG IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS,
SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY GIVES
YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU

VARY FROM STATE TO STATE. No attempt
to alter, modify or amend this warranty shall be
effective unless authorized in writing by an
officer of BSH.
