Warranty

23

If after reviewing this manual you feel that your smoke alarm

is defective in any way, do not tamper with the unit. In many

cases, the quickest way to exchange your alarm is to return it

to the original place of purchase. Alternatively, you may

return it for servicing to Kidde. If you have questions, call

Kidde Customer Service at 1-800-880-6788.

10 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 ten years from the date of purchase.
The obligation of Kidde 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 customer, upon sending the smoke alarm with
proof of date of purchase, postage and return postage prepaid,
to Kidde Canada Inc., P.O. Box 40, Apsley, ON K0L 1A0.
1-800-880-6788.

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 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 this 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 this
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 provinces do not allow limitations on 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 province to province.

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 parties hereto.
