The limited warranty period for any replacement parts provided by the Company and for any
Products repaired or replaced under this limited warranty shall be the remainder of the original
warranty period.

that may be purchased separately and installed with the Product. This warranty also does not
cover (a)normal maintenance and service, (b)normal wear and tear, (c)any Products or parts

tions, (e)any Product that has been moved from its original point of installation, (f)damage
caused by environmental or natural elements, (g)damage in transit, (h)natural wear of finish,
(i)Products in commercial or nonresidential use, or (j)damage caused by fire, flood or other
act of God. This warranty covers only Products sold to original consumers in the United States
by the Company or U.S. distributors authorized by the Company.
This warranty supersedes all prior warranties and is not transferable from the original con-
sumer purchaser.
No Other Warranties: This Limited Warranty contains the Company’s sole obligation and your
sole remedy for defective products. The foregoing warranties are exclusive and in lieu of any
other warranties, express or implied. THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL OTH-
ER EXPRESS WARRANTIES, AND DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL WARRANTIES IMPLIED
BY LAW, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. To the extent that applicable law prohibits the exclusion of
implied warranties, the duration of any applicable implied warranty is limited to the period
specified for the express warranty above. Some states do not allow limitations on how long
an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Any oral or written
description of the Product is for the sole purpose of identifying it and shall not be construed
as an express warranty.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Limited Warranty shall be interpreted in such man-
ner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision is held to be prohibited
or invalid, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity,
without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the other remaining provisions of the
Limited Warranty.
Remedy: During the applicable limited warranty period, the Company will, at its option, pro-
vide replacement parts for, or repair or replace, without charge, any Product or part thereof, to
the extent the Company finds it to be covered by and in breach of this limited warranty under
normal use and service. The Company will ship the repaired or replaced Product or replace-
ment parts to you at no charge. You are responsible for all costs for removal, reinstallation
and shipping, insurance or other freight charges incurred in the shipment of the Product or
part to the Company. If you must send the Product or part to the Company, as instructed by
the Company, you must properly pack the Product or part—the Company is not responsible
for damage in transit. The Company reserves the right to utilize reconditioned, refurbished,
