IN NO EVENT SHALL JØTUL, ITS PARENT COMPANY, SHAREHOLDERS,

BE LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE TO YOU FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR OTHER SIMILAR DAMAGES,
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, LOST SALES, INJURY
TO PERSON OR PROPERTY, OR DAMAGES TO A STRUCTURE OR ITS
CONTENTS, ARISING UNDER ANY THEORY OF LAW WHATSOEVER.
ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
OR OTHERWISE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE LENGTH OF THIS
WRITTEN WARRANTY. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, JØTUL
MAKES NO ORAL, WRITTEN OR OTHER WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO
JØTUL OR SCAN STOVES OR FIREPLACES.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, or limitations on the length of implied
warranties. Therefore, the above exclusions or limitations may not
apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may
have other rights, which vary from state to state.
JØTUL reserves the right to discontinue, modify or change the materials
used to produce the Jøtul Stove or Fireplace. JØTUL shall have the
right to replace any defective component with substitute components
determined by JØTUL to be of substantially equal quality and price.
The dollar value of JØTULs liability for breach of this warranty shall be
limited exclusively to the cost of furnishing a replacement component.
JØTUL shall not in any event be liable for the cost of labor expended
by others in connection with any defective component. Any costs or
expenses beyond those expressly assumed by JØTUL under the terms
of this warranty shall be the sole responsibility of the owner(s) of the
Jøtul Stove or Fireplace Insert.
No dealer, distributor, or other person is authorized to modify, augment,
or extend this limited warranty on behalf of JØTUL. NO MODIFICATION
OR CHANGE TO THIS WARRANTY WILL BE EFFECTIVE UNLESS IT IS MADE
IN A WRITTEN DOCUMENT MANUALLY SIGNED BY AN AUTHORIZED
OFFICER OF JØTUL.
An authorized installer may have been provided with certain
information related particularly to the Jøtul Stove or Fireplace Insert;
however, no authorized installer or other person who may service the
appliance is an agent of JØTUL. No inference should be made that
JØTUL has tested, certified, or otherwise pronounced any person as
qualified to install or service the appliance. JØTUL shall not be liable or
otherwise responsible for any error or omission by a person installing
or servicing a Jøtul Stove or Fireplace Insert.
If you believe your Jøtul or Fireplace Insert is defective, you should
contact your nearest authorized Jøtul dealer, who will process a
warranty claim. IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR WARRANTY COVERAGE,
JØTUL MUST RECEIVE NOTICE OF A POSSIBLE DEFECT WITHIN SIXTY (60)
DAYS OF THE DATE THE DEFECT IS FIRST DISCOVERED, OR REASONABLY
COULD HAVE BEEN DISCOVERED.

EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS
NOTICE: This warranty is void if installation or service is performed
by someone other than an authorized installer or service agency, or if
installation is not in conformance with the installation and operating
instructions contained in this owners manual or local and/or national
fire and building regulations. A listing of local authorized installers,
service agencies and gas suppliers can be obtained from the National
Fireplace Institute at http://www.nficertified.org/.
This warranty does not cover the following:
1) Repair or replacement of parts that are subject to normal wear and
tear during the warranty period or to parts that may require replace-
ment in connection with normal maintenance. These parts include
paint, gaskets, burn plates, firebricks, fire grates, ceramic insulation
blankets or glass (glass is only warranted against thermal breakage).
2) Damage due to incorrect installations not in conformance with the
installation instructions contained in this owners manual or local
and/or national fire and building regulations.
3) Damage, including damage to enamel surfaces, caused by improper
operation, over-firing, and/or misuse. Improper operation, such as
burning the stove with the ash door open, can damage the stove.
Over-firing occurs when any part of the stove glows red. Over-firing
can also be identified by warped plates, rust-colored cast iron, paint
pigment that has turned dusty white, or bubbling, cracking and
discoloration of the enamel finish. Misuse includes, without limita-
tion, use that is not in conformance with the operating instructions
contained in this owners manual.
