Statement of Limited Product Warranty
What this Warranty
Covers & Who it Applies to: The limited warranty
provided by BBH Home Appliances
in this Statement of Limited Product
Warranty applies only to the Thermador
Dishwashers ("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.
Thermador
reserves the right to request proof of purchase at the time any warranty
claim is submitted to confirm that the Product falls within the scope of this
limited product warranty.
Please make sure to return your registration card; while not necessary
to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for Thermador
to
notify you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product recall.
How
Long
the
Warranty
Lasts:
Thermador
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,
Thermador 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.
Ifa reasonable number of attempts to repair the Product
have been made without success, then Thermador will replace your Product
(upgraded models may be available to you, in Thermador's sole discretion,
for an additional charge). All removed parts and components shall become
the property of Thermador 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. Thermador's
sole liability and responsibility
hereunder is to repair
manufacturer-defective
Product only, using a Thermador-authorized
service
provider during normal business hours. For safety and property damage
concerns, Thermador
highly recommends
that you do not attempt to
repair the Product yourself, or use an un-authorized
servicer; Thermador
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
AUTOMATICALLYBECOMENULLANDVOID. Authorized service providers are
those persons or companies that have been specially trained on Thermador
products, and who possess, in Thermador'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
Thermador).
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Thermador 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, Thermador
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.

is under no obligation,
at law or
otherwise, to provide you with any concessions, including repairs, pro-rates,
or Product replacement,
