12. SERVICE AND WARRANTY

If after reviewing this manual you feel that your smoke alarm is defective in any way,
do not tamper with the unit.  Return it for servicing to: KIDDE Safety, 1394 South
Third St., Mebane, NC 27302. 1-800-880-6788 (See Warranty for in-warranty returns)

FIVE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

KIDDE Safety warrants to the original purchaser that the enclosed smoke
alarm (but not the battery) will be free from defects in material and workman-
ship or design under normal use and service for a period of five years from
the date of purchase.  The obligation of KIDDE Safety under this warranty is
limited to repairing or replacing the smoke alarm or any part which we find to
be defective in material, workmanship or design, free of charge to the cus-
tomer, upon sending the smoke alarm with proof of date of purchase,
postage and return postage prepaid, to Warranty Service Department, KIDDE
Safety, 1394 South Third St., Mebane, NC 27302.

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 A.C. or D.C. electrical power.

THE LIABILITY OF KIDDE SAFETY OR ANY OF ITS PARENT OR SUB-
SIDIARY CORPORATIONS 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 SAFETY 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 COMPA-
NY’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 Safety 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.
