Statement of Limited Product Warranty
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive
Remedy
During this warranty period, Gaggenau 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 a reasonable number attempts to repair the Product
have been made without success, then Gaggenau will
replace your Product (upgraded models may be
available to you, in Gaggenau's sole discretion, for an
additional charge). All removed parts and components
shall become the property of Gaggenau 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. Gaggenau's sole liability and
responsibility hereunder is to repair manufacturer-
defective Product only, using a Gaggenau-authorized
service provider during normal business hours. For
safety and property damage concerns, Gaggenau highly
recommends that you do not attempt to repair the
Product yourself, or use an unauthorized servicer;
Gaggenau 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
Gaggenau products, and who possess, in Gaggenau'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 Gaggenau). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Gaggenau 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,
Gaggenau 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.
