WARRANTY INFORMATION
This warranty is available to consumers only. You are a consumer if you
own a Cuisinart
®
PowerBlend Duet
™
Blender/Food Processor which was
purchased at retail for personal, family or household use. Except as
otherwise required under applicable law, this warranty is not available to
retailers or other commercial purchasers or owners.
We warrant that your Cuisinart
®
PowerBlend Duet
™
Blender/Food Processor
will be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal home
use for 3 years from the date of original purchase.
We suggest you complete and return the enclosed product registration card
promptly to facilitate verification of the date of original purchase. However,
return of the product registration card does not eliminate the need for the
consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase in order to obtain the
warranty benefits. In the event that you do not have proof of purchase date,
the purchase date for purposes of this warranty will be the date of
manufacture.
If your Cuisinart
®
PowerBlend Duet
™
Blender/Food Processor should prove
to be defective within the warranty period, we will repair or, if we think
necessary, replace it. To obtain warranty service, please call our Customer
Service Center toll-free at 1-800-76-0190 or write to:
Cuisinart
150 Milford Road
East Windsor, NJ 0850
To facilitate the speed and accuracy of your return, enclose $10.00 for
shipping and handling. (California residents need only supply a proof of
purchase and should call 1-800-76-0190 for shipping instructions.) Please
be sure to include your return address, description of the product's defect,
product serial number, and any other information pertinent to the return.
Please pay by check or money order.
NOTE:
For added protection and secure handling of any Cuisinart
®
product
that is being returned, we recommend you use a traceable, insured delivery
service. Cuisinart cannot be held responsible for in-transit damage or for
packages that are not delivered to us. Lost and/or damaged products are
not covered under warranty.
Your Cuisinart
®
PowerBlend Duet
™
Blender/Food Processor has been
manufactured to the strictest specifications and has been designed for
use only with authorized accessories and replacement parts. This warranty
expressly excludes any defects or damages caused by accessories,
replacement parts or repair service other than those authorized by
Cuisinart.
This warranty does not cover any damage caused by accident, misuse,
shipment or other than ordinary household use.
This warranty excludes all incidental or consequential damages. Some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of these damages, so they
may not apply to you.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY
California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents
have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store
where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store which sells Cuisinart
®
products of the same type. The retail store shall then, according to its
preference, either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent
repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the
amount directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product.
If the above two options do not result in the appropriate relief to the
consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent
repair facility if service or repair can be economically accomplished.
Cuisinart and not the consumer will be responsible for the reasonable
cost of such service, repair, replacement, or refund for nonconforming
products under warranty.
California residents may also, according to their preference, return
nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair or, if necessary,
replacement by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at
800-76-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair,
replacement, and shipping and handling for such nonconforming
products under warranty.
BEFORE RETURNING YOUR CUISINART
®
PRODUCT
Important: If the nonconforming product is to be serviced by someone
other than Cuisinart’s Authorized Service Center, please remind the servicer
to call our Consumer Service Center to ensure that the problem is properly
diagnosed, the product serviced with the correct parts, and to ensure that
the product is still under warranty.
