Statement of Limited Product Warranty
Bosch Dishwashers
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to: The limited warranty provided BSH Home Appliances
("Bosch") in this Statement 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 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 (365) days (i.e., 1 year) 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:
• 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).
• 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 with
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 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 umauthorized 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 WILLAUTOMATICALLY BECOME
NULLAND VOID. Authorized sen,ice 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.
