STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
PRODUCT WARRANTY
STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
14.1 What this warranty covers & Who it ap-
plies 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 ("Prod-
uct"), 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 house-
hold 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 pur-
chaser of the product warranted herein and to each suc-
ceeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary home
use during the term of the warranty.
Please make sure to register your Product; while not nec-
essary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way
for Bosch to notify you in the unlikely event of a safety no-
tice or product recall.
14.2 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 deliv-
ery. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of
the original delivery, and shall not be stalled, tolled, ex-
tended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever. This
Product is also warranted to be free from cosmetic de-
fects 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 cos-
metic warranty specifically excludes any display, floor, "As
Is", or "B" stock appliances.
14.3 Repair/replace as your exclusive rem-
edy
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 re-
pair 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 addi-
tional 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
STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY en-us
such parts. Bosch's sole liability and responsibility hereun-
der is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using
a Bosch authorized service provider during normal busi-
ness hours. For safety and property damage concerns,
Bosch highly recommends that you do not attempt to re-
pair 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 enti-
ties and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representa-
tives 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 lia-
bility, 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 envi-
ronment; in any such event, if you request, Bosch would
still pay for labor and parts and ship the parts to the near-
est 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 in-
stalled 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 responsibil-
ity.
14.4 Out of warranty product
Bosch is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to pro-
vide you with any concessions, including repairs, prorates,
or Product replacement, once this warranty has expired.
14.5 Warranty exclusions
The warranty coverage described herein excludes all de-
fects or damage that are not the direct fault of Bosch, in-
cluding without limitation, one or more of the following:
¡ Use of the Product in anything other than its normal,
customary and intended manner (including without limi-
tation, any form of commercial use, use or storage of an
indoor product outdoors, use of the Product in conjunc-
tion with air or water-going vessels).
¡ Any party's willful misconduct, negligence, misuse,
abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure to
maintain, improper or negligent installation, tampering,
failure to follow operating instructions, mishandling,
unauthorized service (including selfperformed "fixing" or
exploration of the appliance's internal workings).
¡ Adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind.
¡ A failure to comply with any applicable state, local, city,
or county electrical, plumbing and/or building codes,
regulations, or laws, including failure to install the prod-
uct in strict conformity with local fire and building codes
and regulations.
