U-Line Corporation Limited Warranty
1.U-Line Corporation ("U-Line") warrants each U-Line product to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year from the date of purchase. U-Line further warrants the sealed system (consisting of the compressor, the condenser, the evaporator, the hot gas bypass valve, the dryer and the connecting tube) in each U-Line product to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of five years from the date of purchase.
2.During the initial one year warranty period for all U- Line products U-Line shall: (1) repair any product or replace any part of a product; and (2) for all Marine, RV and Domestic U-Line products sold and serviced in the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) and Canada, U-Line shall be responsible for the labor costs performed by a U-Line authorized service company, incurred in connection with the replacement of any defective part. During years two through five of the warranty period for the sealed system, U-Line shall: (1) at U-line’s option repair or replace any part of the sealed system; and (2) for all Marine, RV and Domestic U-Line products sold and serviced in the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) and Canada, U-Line shall be responsible for the labor costs incurred in connection with the replacement of any defective part of the sealed system. All other charges, including transportation charges for replacements under this warranty and labor costs not specifically covered by this warranty, shall be the responsibility of the purchaser. This warranty extends only to the original purchaser of the U-Line product. The registration Card included with the product should be promptly completed by you and mailed back to U-Line or you can register on-line at www.u-lineservice.com.
3.The following conditions are excluded from this limited warranty: damage caused by outdoor use; use of cleaners other than the recommended stainless steel cleaners and U-Line Clear Ice Maker cleaner; installation charges; damages caused by disasters or acts of God, such as fire, floods, wind and lightning; damages incurred or resulting from shipping, improper installation, unauthorized modification, or misuse/abuse of the product; customer education calls; food loss and spoilage; door and water level adjustments (except during the first 30 days from the date of installation); defrosting the product; adjusting the controls; door reversal; and cleaning the condenser.
4.U-Lines' Outdoor Limited Warranty, set forth in this Paragraph 4, shall apply to U-Line models deemed suitable for outdoor use by Underwriters Laboratory ("UL") as noted in the U-Line Product Catalog, U-Line's website and/or on the serial tag located inside the product. Exposure to temperatures below freezing may cause damage to the product. Damage resulting to the product (and/or the surroundings) caused by this exposure is not covered under this warranty. Such models shall
continue to be covered by the warranty terms set forth in Paragraphs 1 and 2 above, to the extent such models:
A. Are subjected to temperatures between 50 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Although these products will function in ambient temperatures below 50 degrees and above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, performance may decline. Performance degradation due to operating above or below the designated ambient temperature range is not a manufacturing defect and any issues resulting from exposure to higher temperatures, such as spoiled food or low ice production, are not covered under this warranty policy; and/or
B. Come into contact with rain by virtue of outdoor use. Exposure to other sources of water shall also cause this warranty to be void, including flooding of the area in proximity of the unit greater than 1/8” deep in water, hurricanes, splashing of pool water, or directing a spray from a hose or similar device into and around the unit.
5.If a product defect is discovered during the applicable warranty period, you must promptly notify either U-Line at P.O. Box 245040, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53224 or at
800-779-2547 or the dealer from whom you purchased the product. In no event shall such notification be received later than 30 days after the expiration of the applicable warranty period. U-line may require that defective parts be returned, at your expense, to U-Line's factory in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for inspection. Any action by you for breach of warranty must be commenced within one year after the applicable warranty period.
6.THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ALL OF WHICH ARE DISCLAIMED. U-Line’s sole liability and your exclusive remedy under this warranty is set forth in the paragraphs above. U-Line shall have no liability whatsoever for any incidental, consequential or special damages arising from the sale, use or installation of the product or from any other cause whatsoever, whether based on warranty (express or implied) or otherwise based on contract, tort or any other theory of liability.
7.Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, 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.
