KONTIKI LIMITED WARRANTY

KONTIKI POOL CLEANER IS WARRANTED AGAINST ALL MANUFACTURING DEFECTS AND ALL WEAR AND TEAR FOR ONE (1) YEAR. ALL

WARRANTIES ARE EFFECTIVE FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE. 

Should this product prove defective in workmanship, materials or wear during the applicable warranty period, the consumer’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be such

repair or replacement of the product as provided below.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY EXCLUDES THE FOLLOWING:

1. Discoloration of the KONTIKI pool cleaner. This is caused by reaction to ultraviolet rays and the chemicals used in the pool water. Discoloration does not affect the

operating ability of the KONTIKI. Therefore, this Limited Warranty does not cover the replacement of discolored parts.

2. Damage to or malfunction of the unit resulting from excess chlorination or improper water chemistry balance.

3. Replacement of parts which fail or become defective as a result of improper installation, negligence, misuse, abuse or tampering by unauthorized repair personnel.

4. Age, pool water imbalance, and improper installation can cause vinyl pool liners to become brittle or unduly wrinkled. Corrosion of the supporting walls and /or

irregularities in the pool base may also cause liner failure. The use of this product in such an environment is at the pool owner’s risk. Therefore, the pool owner  hereby
releases the manufacturer from any and all claims for damage where these conditions exist.

5. The KONTIKI is designed for use in aboveground pools only. If unit is used in any other application, the pool owner hereby releases the manufacturer from any and

all claims. This misuse will void all warranty on the unit.

THE LIMITED WARRANTY PROVIDED HEREIN IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE WRITTEN WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE KONTIKI

POOL CLEANER. ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES IMPOSED BY APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO EACH COMPONENT OF THE KONTIKI ARE LIMITED TO
THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH COMPONENT. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW
LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

In no event shall Kontiki be liable in contract or in tort, or under any other legal theory, for lost profits or revenues, loss of use or similar economic loss, or for indirect,

special, incidental, consequential or similar damages, even if it has been advised of the possibility of such claim. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

No claim under this Limited Warranty will be recognized unless the registration card, included in your box, is completed and returned within fifteen (15) days of the

purchase date. Only the original purchaser may submit a claim under this Limited Warranty. Purchaser’s claims against Kontiki, shall be limited to those claims which
may be asserted under the Limited Warranty relating to any defect, malfunction or wear of the Kontiki.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

IMPORTANT: FOR VINYL LINER POOL OWNERS

Vinyl liners are subject to deterioration or damage due to age, the effect of chemicals, corrosion or failure of the supporting  walls; as well as improper installation,
maintenance or cleaning of the supporting walls or base.

Before installing the Kontiki, examine the interior of your pool carefully. If your vinyl liner is brittle or has stones, wrinkles, roots or metal corrosion in contact with the underside
of the liner, or has damage to the base material or supporting walls, do not install the Kontiki before having a qualified professional perform the necessary repairs.

Kontiki will not be responsible for liner damage caused by (1) a Kontiki cleaner which is out of warranty or in disrepair, or (2) a Kontiki cleaner used in a pool
having a aged or deteriorated liner. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR LINER DAMAGE IF YOU USE THE KONTIKI UNDER CONDITION (1) OR (2).

For sale and use in the United States only. This pool cleaner is not warranted or guaranteed outside of the United States.
