SUMMARY OF WARRANTY

 

Crown International, 1718 West Mishawaka Road, Elkhart, Indiana 46517-4095 U.S.A. warrants to you, the ORIGINAL PUR-

CHASER and ANY SUB SEQUENT OWNER of each NEW Crown product, for a period of five (5) years from the date of purchase 

by the original purchaser (the “warranty period”) that the new Crown product  is free of defects in materials and workmanship. We 

further warrant the new Crown product regardless of the reason for failure, except as excluded in this Warranty.

Warranty is only valid within the country in which the product was purchased.

ITEMS EXCLUDED FROM THIS CROWN WARRANTY

 

This Crown Warranty is in effect only for failure of a new Crown product which occurred within the Warranty Period. It does 

not cover any product which has been damaged because of any inten tional misuse, accident, negligence, or loss which is cov-

ered under any of your insurance contracts. This Crown Warranty also does not extend to the new Crown product if the serial 
number has been defaced, altered, or removed.

WHAT THE WARRANTOR WILL DO

 

We will remedy any defect, regardless of the rea son for failure (except as excluded), by repair, replacement, or refund. We may 

not elect refund unless you agree, or unless we are unable to pro vide replacement, and repair is not practical or cannot be 

timely made. If a refund is elected, then you must make the defective or malfunctioning product available to us free and clear 

of all liens or other encumbrances. The refund will be equal to the actual purchase price, not including inter est, insurance, 

closing costs, and other finance charges less a reasonable depreciation on the product from the date of original purchase. 

War ranty work can only be performed at our autho rized service centers or at the factory. Warranty work for some products can 

only be performed at our factory. We will remedy the defect and ship the product from the service center or our factory within a 

reasonable time after receipt of the defec tive product at our authorized service center or our factory. All expenses in remedying 

the defect, including surface shipping costs in the United States, will be borne by us. (You must bear the expense of shipping 

the product between any for eign country and the port of entry in the United States including the return shipment, and all taxes, 
duties, and other customs fees for such for eign shipments.)

HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE

 

You must notify us of your need for warranty ser vice within the warranty period. All components must be shipped in a factory 

pack, which, if needed, may be obtained from us free of charge. Corrective action will be taken within a reason able time of 

the date of receipt of the defective product by us or our authorized service center. If the repairs made by us or our authorized 
service center are not satisfactory, notify us or our autho rized service center immediately.

DISCLAIMER OF CONSEQUENTIAL AND INCIDENTAL DAMAGES

NEW CROWN PRODUCT. THIS INCLUDES ANY DAMAGE TO ANOTHER PRODUCT OR PRODUCTS RESULT ING FROM 

SUCH A DEFECT. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATIONS OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL 
DAM AGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLU SION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

WARRANTY ALTERATIONS

length of time which you are deprived of the use of the new Crown product. Repairs and replacement parts provided under the
