1)
This new Mendota Fireplace must be installed & serviced by a competent, authorized service contractor. It must be installed and operated at all times
in accordance with the installation and operating instructions furnished with the Fireplace. All adjustments to logs, coals or burner must be made by
an authorized Mendota person. Any alteration, willful abuse, accident or misuse of the product shall nullify this warranty. This warranty does not
cover glass or log breakage.
This limited warranty does not cover the cost of service calls, the cost of labor to remove or install parts covered by this limited warranty, freight or
other transportation expenses, which may be incurred in connection with obtaining performances under this limited warranty. The remedy for dam-
ages as the result of any defects in this product which have been warranted herein is limited to replacement parts and does not include any incidental,
indirect or consequential damages or expenses sustained in connection with the product, including damages to property, except as provided by law.
2)
This warranty is non-transferable and is made to the original retail purchaser, provided the purchase was made through an authorized Mendota dealer.
Mendota is not responsible for any damage to or malfunction of the Fireplace unless caused by a defect in material or workmanship from normal
home use. Damage caused by abuse, improper installation, improper servicing, and installation by unqualified personnel or breech of conditions of
this limited warranty will excuse Mendota from performance of any part of this limited warranty. Mendota has the right to investigate and inspect the
exact, original Fireplace and entire installation (without any alterations or tampering) in the event a claim is made to determine whether the claimed
damage or malfunction was caused by abuse, improper installation or other cause outside this warranty. Mendota is not responsible for any repairs or
material purchases that have not received prior written approval from Mendota.
NOTE: Minor warping of certain parts or discoloration is normal and is not a defect covered by this warranty. Major warping of parts can be caused
by over-firing of your Mendota Fireplace. Over-firing above rated nameplate specification is as contrary to the manufacturer's instructions and may
void this warranty.
This warranty may not be extended by our representatives or any third party in any manner. The company neither assumes, nor authorizes any third
party to assume, on its behalf, any other liabilities with respect to the sale of this Mendota product.
3)
Mendota may at its discretion, fully discharge all obligations of this warranty by refunding the wholesale price of the defective part(s).
4)
All other warranties - expressed or implied - with respect to the product, its components and accessories, or any obligation/liabilities on the part of
the company are hereby expressly excluded. Products made by other manufacturers, sold with the Fireplace or thereafter, are not covered by this lim-
ited warranty. The use of unauthorized components will make this warranty null and void.
5)
It remains the full responsibility of the owner to operate this appliance within the guide-
lines provided in the Installation Manual and the Operating Instructions Manual accom-
panying this appliance. Further, the owner shall bear full responsibility to enforce
clearances to combustibles requirements and cautioning others about hot glass surfaces
and hot metal surfaces. Owner, by operating this appliance, accepts that this is a heat
producing appliance which has glass and steel parts that are hot enough to cause severe
burns. Owner accepts that this appliance requires close monitoring of children and vul-
nerable individuals who are in the vicinity of this appliance when this appliance is in op-
eration. Mendota does not assume or accept any liability claims for burns or other
physical or material damages resulting from touching hot glass surfaces and hot metal
surfaces that are part of this appliance or other adjacent object such as hearth pads and
mantels that may heat up during operation of this appliance.
This warranty shall be effective only if the original purchaser of the Mendota appliance is regis-
tered with Mendota Division within thirty (30) days of the date of purchase. Such registration
or the failure to register shall not be deemed to create any obligation or liability by the manu-
facturer and this warranty with its conditions and limitations shall be the only procedure for ob-
taining any rights against the manufacturer and expresses the sole obligation and
responsibilities of the manufacturer which are offered to the original purchaser and accepted
upon purchase of the appliance.
Mendota Division, reserves the right to make changes at any time without notice, in design, material, specifications, prices and the right to discontinue styles
and products.

above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state
to state.
