date of purchase. The obligation of Kidde under this warranty is limited to repairing or 
replacing the alarm or any part which we find to be defective in material, workmanship

This warranty shall not apply to the 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 power. Any implied warranties arising out of this sale, including but not 
limited to the implied warranties of description, merchantability and fitness for a par-
ticular purpose, are limited in duration to the above warranty period. In no event shall 
the Manufacturer be liable for loss of use of this product or for any indirect, special, 
incidental or consequential damages, or costs, or expenses incurred by the consumer or 
any other user of this product, whether due to a breach of contract, negligence, strict 
liability in tort or otherwise.
The Manufacturer shall have no liability for any personal injury, property damage or any 
special, incidental, contingent or consequential damage of any kind resulting from gas 
leakage, smoke, fire or explosion.
Since some states do not allow limitations of the duration of an implied warranty 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.
The above warranty may not be altered except in writing signed by both parties hereto.
Your Kidde Smoke Alarm is not a substitute for property, fire, disability, life or other 
insurance of any kind.
Appropriate insurance coverage is your responsibility. Consult your insurance agent.
