STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT
WARRANTY
What this Warranty Covers & Who it
Applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances in
this Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to
the Bosch freestanding and slide-in range, (“Product”) sold
to you, the first using purchaser, provided that the Product
was purchased: (1) for your normal, household (non-com-
mercial) use, and has in fact at all times only been used for
normal household purposes; (2) new at retail (not a display,
“as is”, or previously returned model), and not for resale, or
commercial use; and (3) within the United States or Can-
ada, and has at all times remained within the country of
original purchase. The warranties stated herein apply only
to the first purchaser of the Product and are not transfer-
able. Bosch
reserves the right to request proof of pur-
chase at the time any warranty claim is submitted to
confirm that the Product falls within the scope of this limited
product warranty.
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
sixty-five days (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.
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 a reasonable number of
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 compo-
nents 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 treacherous locale, surround-
ings, 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 pro-
vide you with any concessions, including repairs, pro-rates,
or Product replacement, once this warranty has expired.
Warranty Exclusions
The warranty coverage described herein excludes all
defects or damage that are not the direct fault of Bosch,
including without limitation, one or more of the following: (1)
use of the Product in anything other than its normal, cus-
tomary and intended manner (including without limitation,
any form of commercial use, use or storage of an indoor
product outdoors, use of the Product in conjunction with air
or water-going vessels); (2) any party’s willful misconduct,
negligence, misuse, abuse, accidents, neglect, improper
operation, failure to maintain, improper or negligent instal-
lation, tampering, failure to follow operating instructions,
