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
("Product"), 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 from a BSH authorized dealer or directly
from BSH (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 to the original
purchaser of the product warranted herein and to each
succeeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary
home use during the term of the warranty.
Please make sure to register your Product; 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 the original
delivery. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the
date of the original delivery, and shall not be stalled,
tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason
whatsoever. This Product is also warranted to be free from
cosmetic defects in material and workmanship (such as
scratches of stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes,
chips, dents, or other damage to the finish) of the Product,
for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of delivery or
closing date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty
excludes slight color variations due to inherent differences
in painted and porcelain parts, as well as differences
caused by kitchen lighting, product location, or other
similar factors. This cosmetic warranty specifically excludes
any display, floor, "As Is", or "B" stock appliances.
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). Nothing in this warranty requires
damaged or defective parts to be replaced with parts of a
different type or design than the original part. 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 a non-authorized service provider; Bosch will have no
responsibility or liability for damage resulting from repairs
or work performed by a non-authorized service provider.
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).
Nevertheless, taking your product to be serviced by
a repair shop that is not affiliated with or an authorized
dealer of Bosch will not void this warranty. Also, using
third-party parts will not void this warranty.
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. Further, to
the extent you have installed the Product in a difficult-to-
access location or have otherwise installed temporary or
permanent fixtures that create barriers to accessing or
removing the Product, Bosch will not incur any liability for,
or have responsibility, for work or costs associated with
moving the Product or otherwise creating access to the
Product in order to repair or replace it. All such costs shall
be your sole responsibility.

Out of Warranty Product

Bosch is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to
provide you with any concessions, including repairs,
prorates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has
expired.
