APPENDIX A – WARRANTY

AAF INTERNATIONAL 

LIMITED WARRANTY

The Seller warrants that it will provide free replacement parts in the event any product manufactured 
by the Seller proves defective in material or workmanship for a period of twelve (12) months from 
initial startup or eighteen (18) months from date of shipment, whichever expires sooner. Product(s) not 
manufactured by the Seller but also sold under this agreement are warranted only to the extent that the 
manufacturer warranted them to the Seller or directly to Buyer. 

The Seller’s liability to Buyer shall not exceed the lesser of the cost of correcting defects in the 
product(s) sold or the original purchase price of the product(s) and the Seller shall in no event be 
liable to Buyer or third parties for any delays. The Seller’s warranty does not apply to any product(s) or 
goods which: (1) have been opened, dissembled, repaired, or altered by anyone other than the Seller 
or its authorized service representative; or, (2) which have been subjected to misuse, misapplication, 
negligence, accidents, damage, abuse, improper storage, or abnormal use or service; or, (3) have been 
operated or installed in a manner contrary to Seller’s printed instructions; or, (4), have been installed in 
an incorrect or improper application; or, (5) have become corroded or subjected to abrasion. The Seller 
is not obligated to pay any costs or expenses in connection with the removal and re-installation of such 
product(s) or goods, including but not limited to labor, service costs, and shipping charges. The same 
obligations and conditions shall extend to replacement parts furnished by the Seller hereunder. This 
parts warranty and any optional extended warranties are granted only to the original user. Seller’s duty 
to perform under this or any warranty may be delayed, at Seller’s sole option, until Seller has been paid 
in full for all products or goods purchased by Buyer. No such delay shall extend the warranty period.

To obtain assistance under this limited warranty please contact the selling agency. To obtain information

THIS WARRANTY CONSTITUTES BUYER’S SOLE REMEDY. IT IS GIVEN IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER 
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. THERE IS NO IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY 
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER TERMS OF ANY 
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE SELLER AND BUYER, IN NO EVENT AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES 
SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL 
DAMAGES, WHETHER THE THEORY BE BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY, BREACH 
OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, OR STRICT LIABILITY. 

No person (including any agent, salesman, dealer or distributor) has the authority to expand the Seller’s 
obligation beyond the terms of this express warranty, or to state that the performance of the product(s) 
is other than published by the Seller.
