12. Service and Warranty
TEN YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
Kidde warrants to the original purchaser that the enclosed smoke alarm will
be free from defects in material and workmanship or design under normal
use and service for a period of ten (10) years from the date of purchase.
The obligation of Kidde under this warranty is limited to repairing or replac-
ing the smoke alarm or any part which we find to be defective in material,
workmanship or design, free of charge to the customer, upon sending the
smoke alarm with proof of date of purchase, postage and return postage
prepaid, to Warranty Service Department, Kidde, 1016 Corporate Park Dr.,
Mebane, NC 27302.
This warranty shall not apply to the smoke alarm if it has been damaged,
modified, abused or altered after the date of purchase or if it fails to oper-
ate due to improper maintenance or inadequate AC or DC electrical power.
THE LIABILITY OF KIDDE OR ANY OF ITS PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY CORPO-
RATIONS ARISING FROM THE SALE OF THIS SMOKE ALARM OR UNDER
THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL NOT IN ANY CASE
EXCEED THE COST OF REPLACEMENT OF SMOKE ALARM AND, IN NO
CASE, SHALL KIDDE OR ANY OF ITS PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY CORPORA-
TIONS BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGES RESULTING
FROM THE FAILURE OF THE SMOKE ALARM OR FOR BREACH OF THIS OR
ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR
DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE COMPANY’S NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT.
Since some states do not allow limitations on the duration of an implied
warranty or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or conse-
quential damages, the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to
you. While this warranty gives you specific legal rights, you may also have
other rights which vary from state to state.
The above warranty may not be altered except in writing signed by both
parties hereto.
If after reviewing this manual you feel that your smoke alarm is defective
in any way, do not tamper with the unit.
