TEN 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 
workmanship or design under normal use and service for a period of 
ten 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 customer, upon sending the smoke alarm 
with proof of date of purchase, postage and return postage prepaid, to 
Warranty Service Department, KIDDE Safety, 1016 Corporate Park Dr., 
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 AC or DC electrical 
power.

THE LIABILITY OF KIDDE SAFETY 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 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 COMPANY’S NEGLIGENCE OR 
FAULT.

Since some states do not allow limitations on the duration of an implied 
warranty or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or con-
sequential 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 pur-
pose, with respect to the battery.

The above warranty may not be altered except in writing signed by both 
parties hereto.
