HOME to arrange for free repair (or replacement if repair 
proves impossible).

Three-Year Limited Warranty on Burners

For three years from the date of purchase, any burner that

expendable parts that can wear out from normal use within 
the warranty period, or are conditions that can be the result 
of normal use, accident or improper maintenance.

All warranty coverage is void if this grill is ever used for 
commercial or rental purposes.

All warranty coverage applies only if this grill is used in the 
United States.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may 
also have other rights which vary from state to state.
