This warranty is made to the original user at the original installation site and is not transferable. Hussmann merchandisers are warranted to be free from defect in material and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of one (1) year from the date of original installation (not to exceed fifteen (15) months from the

date of shipment for the factory). Hussmann Impact Modular Coils are warranted for a total of five (5) years based upon the above criteria. HussmannÕs obligation under this warranty shall be limited to repairing or exchanging any part or parts, without charge F.O.B. factory or nearest authorized parts depot within said period and which is proven to the satisfaction of the original manufacturing plant warranty group to be thus defective.

Hussmann covers the entire case or refrigeration product and all its components (except for lamps, driers, fuses, and other maintenance type replacement parts) for the one (1) year warranty period.

Additionally, Hussmann warrants for a total period of three (3) years all sealed, multi-glass assemblies except those used in sliding doors on closed meat display cases. If within three (3) years from the date of installation (not to exceed thirty-nine (39) months from the date of shipment from factory), it shall be proven to the satisfaction of the originating factory warranty group that there is impaired visibility through the multi-glass assemblies thereof caused by moisture between the glasses, the multi-glass assembly will be replaced free of charge, F.O.B. factory. This additional warranty excludes accident, misuse, or glass breakage.

On Hussmann manufactured self-contained display cases, Hussmann agrees to repair or exchange, at its option, the original motor/compressor unit only with a motor/compressor of like or of similar design and capacity if it is shown to the satisfaction of Hussmann that the motor/compressor is inoperative due to defects in factory workmanship or material under normal use and service as outlined in HussmannÕs ÒInstallation InstructionsÓ which are shipped inside new Hus- smann equipment. HussmannÕs sole obligation under this warranty shall be limited to a period not to exceed five years from date of factory shipment.

On Hussmann refrigeration systems, an additional (4) year extended warranty for the motor/compressor assem- bly is available, but must be purchased prior to shipment to be in effect. Hussmann reserves the right to inspect the job site, installation and reason for failure.

The motor/compressor warranties listed above do not include replacement or repair of controls, relays, capaci- tors, overload protectors, valve plates, oil pumps, gaskets or any external part on the motor/compressor replaceable in the field, or any other part of the refrigeration system or self-contained display case.
