ZODIAC POOL CARE, INC. WARRANTS THE RANGER POOL CLEANER AGAINST ALL MANUFACTURING DEFECTS AND ALL WEAR AND TEAR FOR

(1) YEAR. ALL WARRANTIES ARE EFFECTIVE FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE. 

Should this product prove defective in workmanship, materials or wear during the applicable warranty period, the consumer’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be such

repair or replacement of the product as provided below.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY EXCLUDES THE FOLLOWING:

1. Discoloration of the BARACUDA

®

RANGER™ pool cleaner. This is caused by reaction to ultraviolet rays and the chemicals used in the pool water. Discoloration

does not affect the operating ability of the BARACUDA RANGER. Therefore, this Limited Warranty does not cover the replacement of discolored parts.

2. Damage to or malfunction of the unit resulting from excess chlorination or improper water chemistry balance.

3. Replacement of parts which fail or become defective as a result of improper installation, negligence, misuse, abuse or tampering by unauthorized repair personnel.

4. Age, pool water imbalance, and improper installation can cause vinyl pool liners to become brittle or unduly wrinkled. Corrosion of the supporting walls and /or

irregularities in the pool base may also cause liner failure. The use of this product in such an environment is at the pool owner’s risk. Therefore, the pool owner  here-
by releases the manufacturer from any and all claims for damage where these conditions exist.

5. The RANGER is designed for use in aboveground pools only. If unit is used in any other application, the pool owner hereby releases the manufacturer from any and

all claims. This misuse will void all warranty on the unit.
