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:
n
For your normal, household (non-commercial) use,
and has in fact at all times only been used for
normal household purposes.
n
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
n
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.
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 purchase 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.
Extended Limited Warranty
Bosch also provides these additional limited
warranties:
n
2-year limited warranty: Bosch will repair or replace
all components which are proven to have a defect
in material or workmanship (excludes labor costs).
n
5-year limited warranty on electronics: Bosch will
repair or replace all microprocessors or printed
circuit boards which are proven to have a defect in
material or workmanship (excludes labor costs).
n
Lifetime warranty against rusting of stainless steel
parts: Bosch will repair or replace all components
which are proven to have a defect in material or
workmanship (excludes labor costs).
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 in a 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,
prorates, or Product replacement, once this warranty
has expired.
