Statement Of Limited Product Warranty - Bosch HBL54 Use And Care Manual

STATEMENT OF LIMITED
PRODUCT WARRANTY
What this Warranty Covers & Who it
Applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances
"Bosch" in this Statement of Limited Product Warranty
applies only to the Bosch appliance sold to you, the first
using purchaser, provided that the Product was purchased:
• For your normal, household (non-commercial) use, and
has in fact at all times only been used for normal
household purposes.
• New at retail (not a display, "as is", or previously
returned model), and not for resale, or commercial use.
• 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
and 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.
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 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.
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:
• 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).
• Any party's willful misconduct, negligence, misuse,
abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure
to maintain, improper or negligent installation,
tampering, failure to follow operating instructions,
mishandling, unauthorized service (including self-
performed "fixing" or exploration of the appliance's
internal workings).
• Adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind.
• 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 the
product in strict conformity with local fire and building
codes and regulations.
• Ordinary wear and tear, spills of food, liquid, grease
accumulations, or other substances that accumulate
on, in, or around the Product.
