STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances (“Bosch”) in this
Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Bosch appliance sold
to you (“Product”), provided that the Product was purchased:
- For your normal, household (non-commercial) use, and has in fact at all times only been used for normal household purposes.
- New at retail from a BSH authorized dealer or directly from BSH (not a display, “as is”, or previously returned model), and not for resale, or commercial use.
- Within the United States or Canada, and has at all times remained within the country of original purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply to the original purchaser of the product
warranted herein and to each succeeding owner of the product purchased for
ordinary home use during the term of the warranty.
Please make sure to register your Product; 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 and sixty-five (365) days from the
date of the original delivery. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the
date of the original delivery, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or
suspended, for any reason whatsoever. This Product is also warranted to be
free from cosmetic defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches of
stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chips, dents, or other damage to
the finish) of the Product, for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of
delivery or closing date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty excludes
slight color variations due to inherent differences in painted and porcelain
parts, as well as differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location, or
other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any
display, floor, “As Is”, or “B” stock appliances.
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 reasonable 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). Nothing in this warranty requires damaged or defective parts to be
replaced with parts of a different type or design than the original part. 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 manufacturerdefective 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 a non-authorized service provider; Bosch
will have no responsibility or liability for damage resulting from repairs or
work performed by a non-authorized service provider. 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 independent
entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of
Bosch). Nevertheless, taking your product to be serviced by a repair shop that
is not affiliated with or an authorized dealer of Bosch will not void this
warranty. Also, using third-party parts will not void this warranty.
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 authorized 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.
Further, to the extent you have installed the Product in a difficult-toaccess
location or have otherwise installed temporary or permanent fixtures that
create barriers to accessing or removing the Product, Bosch will not incur any
liability for, or have responsibility, for work or costs associated with
moving the Product or otherwise creating access to the Product in order to
repair or replace it. All such costs shall be your sole responsibility.
