STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
Bosch Fridge-Freezer
What this Warranty Covers & Who it
Applies to: The limited warranty provided
BSH Home Appliances in this Statement of
Limited Product Warranty applies only to
the Bosch Fridge-Freezer (“Product”) sold
to you, the first using purchaser, provided
that the Product was purchased: (1) for
your normal, household (non-commercial)
use, and has in fact at all times only been
used for normal household purposes;
(2) new at retail (not a display, “as is”, or
previously returned model), and not for
resale, or commercial use; and (3) within the
United States or Canada, and has at all
times remained within the country of
original purchase. The warranties stated
herein apply only to the first purchaser of
the Product and are not transferable.
z
Please make sure to return your
registration card; while not necessary to
effectuate warranty coverage, it is the
best way for Bosch to notify you in the
unlikely event of a safety notice or
product recall.
How Long the Warranty Lasts: Bosch
warrants that the Product is free from
defects in materials and workmanship for a
period of three hundred sixty-five days (365)
days from the date of purchase. The
foregoing timeline begins to run upon the
date of purchase, and shall not be stalled,
tolled, extended, or suspended, for any
reason whatsoever.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy:
During this warranty period, Bosch or one of
its authorized service providers will repair
your Product without charge to you (subject
to certain limitations stated herein) if your
Product proves to have been manufactured
with a defect in materials or workmanship.
If a reasonable number of attempts to repair
the Product have been made without
success, then Bosch will replace your
Product (upgraded models may be available
to you, in Bosch’s sole discretion, for an
additional charge). All removed parts and
components shall become the property of
Bosch at its sole option. All replaced and/or
repaired parts shall assume the identity of
the original part for purposes of this warranty
and this warranty shall not be extended with
respect to such parts. Bosch’s sole liability
and responsibility hereunder is to repair
manufacturer-defective Product only, using
a Bosch-authorized service provider during
normal business hours. For safety and
property damage concerns, Bosch highly
recommends that you do not attempt to
repair the Product yourself, or use an un-
authorized servicer; Bosch will have no
responsibility or liability for repairs or work
performed by a non-authorized servicer.
If you choose to have someone other than
an authorized service provider work on your
Product, THIS WARRANTY WILL AUTO-
MATICALLY BECOME NULL AND VOID.
Authorized service providers are those
persons or companies that have been
specially trained on Bosch products, and
who possess, in Bosch’s opinion, a superior
reputation for customer service and
technical ability (note that they are indepen-
dent entities and are not agents, partners,
affiliates or representatives of Bosch).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bosch will
not incur any liability, or have responsibility,
for the Product if it is located in a remote
area (more than 100 miles from an autho-
rized service provider) or is reasonably
inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or
treacherous locale, surroundings, or
environment; in any such event, if you
request, Bosch would still pay for labor and
parts and ship the parts to the nearest
authorized service provider, but you would
still be fully liable and responsible for any
travel time or other special charges by the
service company, assuming they agree to
make the service call.
Extended Limited Warranty: Bosch also
provides these additional limited warranties:
z
2 Year Limited Warranty: Bosch will
repair or replace any component that
proves to be defective in materials or
workmanship (excludes labor charges).
z
5 Year Limited Warranty on
Electronics: Bosch will repair or replace
any Bosch microprocessor or printed
circuit board if it proves to be defective in
materials or workmanship (excludes
labor charges).
z
Lifetime Warranty against Stainless
Steel Rust Thrugh: Bosch will repair or
replace any component that proves to
be defective in materials or workman-
ship (excludes labor charges).
Out of Warranty Product: Bosch is under
no obligation, at law or otherwise, to
provide you with any concessions,
including repairs, prorates, or Product
replacement, once this warranty has
expired.
Warranty Exclusions: The warranty
coverage described herein excludes all

fault of Bosch, including without limitation,

ding the appliance, and acts of God. In no
event shall Bosch have any liability or
responsibility whatsoever for damage to
surrounding property, including cabinetry,
floors, ceilings, and other structures or
objects around the Product. Also excluded
from this warranty are scratches, nicks,
minor dents, and cosmetic damages on

ting facilities, for proper foundation/flooring,

etc.); and resetting of breakers or fuses.
