LIMITED WARRANTY FOR HOOVER® PRODUCT / 5 (FIVE) YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY (DOMESTIC USE)

warranted product.
WHAT THIS WARRANTY COVERS: This limited
warranty provided by Royal Appliance Mfg.
Co., doing business as TTI Floor Care North
America (referred to hereafter as "Warrantor")
applies only to products purchased in the U.S.
(including its territories and possessions), a
U.S. Military Exchange, or Canada. When used
and maintained in normal household use and in
accordance with the Owner's Guide, this product
is warranted against original defects in material
and workmanship for 5 (FIVE) years from
the date of original purchase (the "Warranty
Period"). If Warrantor determines that the issue
you are experiencing is covered under the terms
of this warranty (a "covered warranty claim"),
we will, at our sole discretion and free of charge
(subject to the cost of shipping), either (i)
repair your product; (ii) ship you a replacement
product, subject to availability; or (iii) in the
event that the applicable parts or replacement
are not reasonably available, ship you a similar
product of equal or greater value. In the unlikely
event that we are unable to repair your product
or ship a replacement or similar product, we
reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to issue
you a refund or store credit (if applicable) of the
actual purchase price at the time of the original
purchase as reflected on the original sales
receipt. Parts and replacements may be new,
refurbished, lightly used, or remanufactured, in
Warrantor's sole discretion.
WHO THIS LIMITED WARRANTY COVERS: This
limited warranty extends only to the original
retail purchaser, with original proof of purchase
from Warrantor or an authorized dealer of
Warrantor products, in the U.S., U.S. Military
Exchanges, and Canada.
WHAT THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER: This
warranty does not cover use of the product
in a commercial operation (such as maid,
janitorial, and equipment rental services, or any
other income-generating activity); improper
maintenance of the product; the product if
it has been subject to misuse, negligence,
neglect, vandalism, or the use of voltages other
than that on the data plate of this product.
This warranty does not cover damage resulting
from an act of God, accident, owner's acts or
omissions, service of this product by other than
Warrantor or a Warrantor authorized service
provider (if applicable), or other acts beyond the
control of Warrantor. This warranty also does
not cover use outside the country in which the
product was initially purchased, or resale of the
product by the original owner. Pick-up, delivery,
transportation, and house calls are not covered
by this warranty. In addition, this warranty does
not cover any product that has been altered or
modified, or repairs made necessary by normal
wear or the use of other products, parts, or
accessories which are either incompatible with
this product or adversely affect this product's
operation, performance, or durability. Normal
wear items are not covered under this warranty.
Depending on the product, normal wear items
may include, but are not limited to, belts, filters,
brushrolls, blower fans, blower and vacuum
tubes, and vacuum bags and straps.
OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS: This warranty
is not transferable and may not be assigned;
any assignment made in contravention of
this prohibition is void. This warranty shall be
governed and construed under the laws of the
state of North Carolina. The Warranty Period
will not be extended by any replacement of
batteries, parts, or products or by virtue of any
repair performed under this warranty.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS THE EXCLUSIVE
WARRANTY AND REMEDY, AND ALL EXPRESS AND
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THE LIMITED
WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE, INCLUDING
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. IN NO EVENT
WILL WARRANTOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL,
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE TO OWNER
OR ANY PARTY CLAIMING THROUGH OWNER,
WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE,
TORT, OR STRICT PRODUCTS LIABILITY OR
ARISING FROM ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, EVEN
IF THIS WARRANTY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL
PURPOSE. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, NO WARRANTIES THAT
ARISE BY OPERATION OF LAW, IF APPLICABLE,
SHALL EXCEED THE DURATION OF THE LIMITED
WARRANTY PROVIDED HEREIN. Warrantor's
liability for damages to you for any costs
whatsoever arising out of this statement of
limited warranty shall be limited to the amount
paid for this product at the time of original
purchase.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, disclaimers of implied warranties,
or limitations on the duration of implied
warranties, so the above exclusions,
disclaimers, and/or limitations may not apply
to you. This warranty gives you specific legal
rights, and you may also have other rights,
which vary from state to state.
GENUINE PARTS AND ACCESSORIES: We
recommend using only with genuine HOOVER®
solutions (for carpet and spot cleaners), parts,
and accessories. Damage caused by use with
other than genuine HOOVER® solutions, parts,
and accessories is not covered by and may void
your warranty.
