Congratulations on making a smart purchase.
Your new

can save you money and aggravation.
The Master Protection Agreement also helps extend the
life of your new product. Here’s what the Agreement*
includes:
Parts and labor
needed to help keep products oper-
ating properly
under normal use

well beyond the product war-
ranty
. No deductible, no functional failure excluded
from coverage

by a force of more than 10,000
authorized
Sears service technicians
, which means
someone you can trust will be working on your prod-
uct.
Unlimited service calls and nationwide service
, as
often as you want us, whenever you want us.
No-lemon guarantee
replacement of your covered
product if four or more product failures occur within
twelve months.

if your covered product can’t
be fixed.

Fast help by phone
we call it Rapid Resolution.

due to power fluctuations.
$250 food loss protection annually
for any food

ered repair service and related installed parts.

is all that it takes for you to schedule service. You can
call anytime day or night or schedule a service appoint-
ment online.
The Master Protection Agreement is a risk free pur-
chase. If you cancel for any reason during the product
warranty period, we will provide a full refund. Or a pro-
rated refund anytime after the product warranty period
