How Long the Warranty Lasts: Bosch warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workman-
ship for a period of three hundred sixty-five days (365) days from the date of pur-
chase. 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 mate-
rials 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).
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 prop-
erty 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 ser-
vicer. If you choose to have someone other than an authorized service provider
work on your Product, THIS WARRANTY WILL AUTOMATICALLY 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 independent entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or rep-
resentatives 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 authorized service provider) or is reasonably inac-
cessible, hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or envi-
ronment; 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.
Out of Warranty Product: Bosch is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any con-
cessions, including repairs, pro-rates, or Product replacement, once this war-
ranty has expired.
Warranty Exclusions: The warranty coverage described herein excludes all defects or damage that
are not the direct fault of Bosch, including without limitation, one or more of the
following: (1) use of the Product in anything other than its normal, customary
and intended manner (including without limitation, any form of commercial use,
use or storage of an indoor product outdoors, use of the Product in conjunction
with air or water-going vessels); (2) any party's willful misconduct, negligence,
misuse, abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure to maintain,
improper or negligent installation, tampering, failure to follow operating instruc-
tions, mishandling, unauthorized service (including self-performed "fixing" or
exploration of the appliance's internal workings); (4) adjustment, alteration or
modification of any kind; (5) a failure to comply with any applicable state, local,
city, or county electrical, plumbing and/or building codes, regulations, or laws,
including failure to install the product in strict conformity with local fire and build-
ing codes and regulations; (6) ordinary wear and tear, spills of food, liquid,
grease accumulations, or other substances that accumulate on, in, or around
the Product; and (7) any external, elemental and/or environmental forces and
factors, including without limitation, rain, wind, sand, floods, fires, mud slides,
freezing temperatures, excessive moisture or extended exposure to humidity,
lightning, power surges, structural failures surrounding 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
