ranty period, BSH or tis authorized service center will repair or replace, at its sole 
option, any Cooktop that proves to have been defective under conditions of nor-
mal use without charge. All removed parts and components shall become the 
property of BSH, at BSH's 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.

top and the ceramic glass of the Cooktop shall be free from defects in materials 
for a period of time beginning on the twelfth (12th) month from the Date of Installa-
tion and continuing until the sixtieth (60th) month from the Date of Installation

out charge, excluding any labor (including but not limited to labor charges incurred 
in the removal and reinstallation of any Cooktop), transportation, and/or shipping 
costs incurred in the performance of this extended warranty. All replaced parts 
covered under this paragraph shall assume the Identity of the original for pur-
poses of this extended warranty and this warranty shall not be extended with 
respect to such parts.

tomary), (2) misuse, abuse, accidents or neglect, (3) improper operation,

To the extent allowed by law, this warranty sets out your exclusive remedies with 
respect to products covered by it, whether the claim arises in contract or tort 
(including strict liability and negligence) or otherwise. BSH will not be liable for 
consequential or incidental damages, losses, or expenses. THIS WARRANTY IS 
IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES. ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED 
BY LAW, WHETHER FOR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICU-
LAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY FOR THE 
PERIOD THAT THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY IS EFFECTIVE. No attempt to 
alter, modify, or amend this warranty shall be effective unless authorized in writing 
by an officer of BSH.
How to Obtain Warranty Service
To obtain warranty service for the Cooktop, call the number or write to the address

Notice to California Owners
If your Cooktop needs warranty service and there is no authorized BSH service 
center reasonably close to you, you may notify the BSH reseller from whom you 
purchased the Cooktop. If the BSH reseller fails to repair or replace the defective 
parts, or partially refund your purchase price (where applicable), you may have 
the Cooktop repaired at any large appliance repair shop or center and you will be 
reimbursed for all reasonable expenses provided the costs are substantiated in 
writing and the work performed is covered by this warranty. BSH shall not reim-
burse any repair costs hereunder which exceed the depreciated value of the 
Cooktop.
