FIVE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

Kidde warrants to the original purchaser that the enclosed smoke alarm (but
not the battery) will be free from defects in material and workmanship or
design under normal use and service for a period of five years from the date
of purchase.  The obligation of Kidde under this warranty is limited to repair-
ing or replacing the smoke alarm or any part which we find to be defective in
material, workmanship or design, free of charge to the customer, upon send-
ing the smoke alarm with proof of date of purchase, postage and return
postage prepaid to: Fyrnetics (Hong Kong) Limited, 21/F, Tower 2, Ever Gain
Plaza,88 Container Port Road, Kwai Chung, Hong Kong.

This warranty shall not apply to the smoke alarm if it has been damaged,
modified, abused or altered after the date of purchase or if it fails to operate
due to improper maintenance or inadequate AC or DC electrical power.

THE LIABILITY OF KIDDE OR ANY OF ITS PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY CORPORA-
TIONS ARISING FROM THE SALE OF THIS SMOKE ALARM OR UNDER THE
TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL NOT IN ANY CASE EXCEED THE
COST OF REPLACEMENT OF SMOKE ALARM AND, IN NO CASE, SHALL KIDDE
OR ANY OF ITS PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY CORPORATIONS BE LIABLE FOR
CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE FAILURE OF THE
SMOKE ALARM OR FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE
COMPANY’S NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT.

Since some states do not allow limitations on the duration of an implied war-
ranty or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.  While
this warranty gives you specific legal rights, you may also have other rights
which vary from state to state.

Also, Kidde makes no warranty, express or implied, written or oral, including
that of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose, with respect to
the battery.

The above warranty may not be altered except in writing signed by both par-
ties hereto.
