IN THIS WARRANTY INSTRUMENT. 
This warranty does not cover any service call or labor costs

appliance is represented as being capable of handling these 

substances in the appliance specifications, other special 

treatment of the water supply must be used to remove these 

substances before they enter this product. Otherwise, Hague

extend or expand this limited warranty. 
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 and exclusion 

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.
