PROCEDURES FOR WARRANTY SERVICE REQUESTS
Any claim for warranty assistance must be made promptly. Determine if
the water heater is “in-warranty” (that is, within the applicable warranty
period) by reviewing a copy of the original sales receipt or warranty
registration. The Owner must present a copy of the original sales receipt
or warranty registration for a warranty service request.
If the water heater is “in-warranty”, contact the retailer from whom the
water heater was purchased (or the installer) for assistance. Be prepared
to provide the retailer or installer with a copy of the original receipt,
complete model and serial numbers, and the date of installation of the
water heater, in addition to an explanation of the water heater problem.
Warranty coverage is subject to validation of “in-warranty” coverage
by Ariston claims department personnel. All alleged defective or
malfunctioning components must be returned to Ariston via the local
distribution channels where the original purchase was made.
NOTE:
Any components or water heaters returned to Ariston for warranty
analysis will become the property of Ariston and will not be returned,
even if credit is denied.
If all warranty conditions are satisfied, Ariston will provide replacement
components to the retailer.

NO OTHER WARRANTIES
This warranty gives the Owner specific legal rights. The Owner may also
have other rights that vary from state to state. Some states do not allow
the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages so this
limitation or exclusion may not apply to the Owner.
These are the only written warranties applicable to the water heater
manufactured and sold by Ariston. Ariston neither assumes nor authorizes
anyone to assume for it any other obligation or liability in connection with
said water heaters.
Ariston reserves the right to change specifications or discontinue models
without notice.
