A PERIOD OF FIVE YEARS.

INSPECTION AND DISCOVERY OF DEFECT
It is the Consumer's responsibility to inspect the Product immediately
upon receipt of the Product. If a defect covered under this warranty is
discovered upon inspection, the customer must follow the Warranty
Claim Procedure set forth below.
ODL shall have no obligation under this warranty with respect to any
defect reasonably discoverable upon immediate inspection once the
product has been installed.
If a defect occurs after installation within the warranty period, then
the customer must also follow the Warranty Claim Procedure set forth
as follows.
WARRANTY CLAIM PROCEDURE
1. The Consumer must present a written claim to ODL within 30 days
after discovering the defect. The Consumer must submit its claim
to the following address: ODL Incorporated, Customer Service, 215
East Roosevelt Avenue, Zeeland, Michigan, 49464. ODL must
receive this written claim within the warranty period.
2. The Consumer must use reasonable diligence to include all of the
following in the written claim:
a. An adequate description of the claimed defect(s);
b. The type and style of Product;
c. Exact Product size;
d. The date of the Consumer's purchase, the place of purchase,

3. The Consumer must, if requested by ODL, permit ODL or its
representative to inspect the Product.
REMEDIES
After receiving a valid claim, ODL will, at ODL's option either (a)
repair the Product or provide a replacement Product of like kind and
design, or (b) upon the return of the Product to ODL, refund the
Consumer the purchase price of the Product paid by the Consumer.
If ODL elects to provide a replacement Product,
the limited warranty for the replacement product
will last for the balance of the warranty of the
original Product.
ODL'S LIABILITY UNDER THIS WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO EITHER
(A) OR (B) ABOVE, AND ODL WILL IN NO EVENT BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR SHIPPING, LABOR, REMOVAL OF ORIGINAL PRODUCT,
INSTALLATION OF REPLACEMENT PRODUCT, FINISHING
EXPENSES, OR OTHER CHARGES, COSTS OR CLAIMS INCURRED
BY THE CONSUMER.
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY
NO IMPLIED WARRANTY, INCLUDING A WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
SHALL APPLY TO THE PRODUCT (OR ANY REPLACEMENT)
BEYOND THE DURATION OF THIS WRITTEN WARRANTY. (Some
states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts,
so the above limitation may not apply to you.)
LIMITATIONS OF REMEDIES
THE REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE THE CONSUMER'S
EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY OR
NEGLIGENCE. IN NO CASE SHALL ODL BE LIABLE TO THE
CONSUMER OR AN OTHER PERSON FOR ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. (Some states do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.)
Unless modified in a later writing signed by both ODL and Consumer,
this warranty is the complete and exclusive warranty related to the
Product, and it supersedes all earlier agreements and other
communications relating to the Product. No employee of ODL or
any other party is authorized to make any warranty in addition to
this warranty. Invalidation of any one or more of the provisions of
this warranty shall not invalidate or affect one of the other provisions.
This warranty is not transferable.
This warranty gives the Consumer specific legal rights, and the
Consumer may also have other legal rights which may vary from
state to state.
