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, the first using purchaser, 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 (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 only to the first purchaser of the Product and are not transferable.
Please make sure to return your registration card; 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 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.
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 purchase 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.
Extended Limited Warranty
Bosch also provides these additional limited warranties:
• 2-year limited warranty: Bosch will repair or replace all components which are proven to have a defect
in material or workmanship (excludes labor costs).
• 5-year limited warranty on electronics: Bosch will repair or replace all microprocessors or printed
circuit boards which are proven to have a defect in material or workmanship (excludes labor costs).
• Lifetime warranty against rusting of stainless steel parts: Bosch will repair or replace all components
which are proven to have a defect in material or workmanship (excludes labor costs).
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). 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 property damage
concerns, Bosch highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use an unauthorized servicer; Bosch will have no responsibility or liability for repairs or work performed by a nonauthorized servicer. 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 representatives 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
inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or in a 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.
Out of Warranty Product
Bosch is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any concessions, including repairs,
prorates, or Product replacement, once this warranty 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:
• 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).
• Any party's willful misconduct, negligence, misuse, abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure
to maintain, improper or negligent installation, tampering, failure to follow operating instructions,
mishandling, unauthorized service (including self performed "fixing" or exploration of the appliance's
internal workings).
• Adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind.
• 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
building codes and regulations.
• Ordinary wear and tear, spills of food, liquid, grease accumulations, or other substances that accumulate
on, in, or around the Product.
• 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 other structures or objects around the Product. Also excluded
from this warranty are Products on which the serial numbers have been altered, defaced, or removed;
service visits to teach you how to use the Product, or visits where there is nothing wrong with the Product;
correction of installation problems (you are solely responsible for any structure and setting for the Product,
including all electrical, plumbing or other connecting facilities, for proper foundation/flooring, and for any
alterations including without limitation cabinetry, walls, floors, shelving, etc.); and resetting of breakers or
fuses.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, THIS WARRANTY SETS OUT YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES
WITH RESPECT TO PRODUCT, WHETHER THE CLAIM ARISES IN CONTRACT OR TORT
(INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OR NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE. THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU
OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY
LAW, WHETHER FOR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR
OTHERWISE, SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY FOR THE PERIOD THAT THIS EXPRESS LIMITED
WARRANTY IS EFFECTIVE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE MANUFACTURER BE LIABLE FOR
CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, "BUSINESS LOSS", AND/OR PUNITIVE
DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR EXPENSES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION TIME AWAY FROM WORK,
HOTELS AND/OR RESTAURANT MEALS, REMODELLING EXPENSES IN EXCESS OF DIRECT
DAMAGES WHICH ARE DEFINITIVELY CAUSED EXCLUSIVELY BY BOSCH, OR OTHERWISE. SOME
STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, AND SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED
WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY
GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY
FROM STATE TO STATE.
No attempt to alter, modify or amend this warranty shall be effective unless authorized in writing by an
officer of BSH.
