16. Service and Warranty

ten-year limited warranty

Kidde warrants that the enclosed alarm will be free from defects in material and workmanship or design under normal 

use and service for a period of ten years from the 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 or design, free 

of charge, upon receiving the alarm with proof of date of purchase, postage and return postage prepaid, to Warranty 

Service Department, Kidde, 1016 Corporate Park Drive, Mebane, NC 27302. Before shipping the product, follow the steps 

in the Permanently Disable Alarm / Discharge Battery section.

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 particular 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 consequen-

tial 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 Alarm is not a substi-

tute for property, fire, disability, life or other insurance of any kind. Appropriate insurance coverage is your responsibility. 

Consult your insurance agent. Opening the unit will void the warranty.
