Master Protection Agreements
Congratulations on making a smart purchase. Your new
Kenmore ® product is designed and manufactured for
years of dependable operation. But like all products, it
may require preventive maintenance or repair from time
to time. That’s when having a Master Protection Agree-
ment can save you money and aggravation.
The Master Protection Agreement also helps extend the
life of your new product. Here’s what the Agreement*
includes:
• Parts and labor not just for repairing defects, but to
help keep products operating properly under normal
use. Our coverage goes well beyond the product
warranty. No deductibles, no functional failure
excluded from coverage— real protection.
• Expert service by a force of more than 10,000
authorized Sears service technicians, which means
someone you can trust will be working on your
product.
• Unlimited service calls and nationwide service, as
often as you want us, whenever you want us.
• “No-lemon” guarantee – replacement of your
covered product if four or more product failures
occur within twelve months.
• Product replacement if your covered product can’t
be fi xed.
• Annual Preventive Maintenance Check at your
request – no extra charge.
• Fast help by phone – we call it Rapid Resolution –
phone sup-port from a Sears representative on all
products. Think of us as a “talking owner’s manual.”
• Power surge protection against electrical damage
due to power fl uctuations.
• $250 Food Loss Protection annually for any food
spoilage that is the result of mechanical failure of
any covered refrigerator or freezer.
• Rental reimbursement if repair of your covered
product takes longer than promised.
• 25% discount o ff the regular price of any non-
covered repair service and related installed parts.
Once you purchase the Agreement, a simple phone call
is all that it takes for you to schedule service. You can
call anytime day or night, or schedule a service ap-
pointment online.
The Master Protection Agreement is a risk free pur-
chase. If you cancel for any reason during the product
warranty period, we will provide a full refund. Or, a
prorated refund anytime after the product warranty
period expires. Purchase your Master Protection Agree-
ment today!
