This warranty does not apply to normal “wear and tear” items. Normal “Wear and Tear” includes, but is not lim-
ited to, damage to seats due to wear or abrasion, worn painted surfaces, scratched decals or windows, etc.

Smithco may require the return of failed parts or components in order to determine the validity of any warranty
claim.

Smithco will not be obligated to replace components of other manufacturers if inspection by the original
component manufacturer indicates that failure was due to normal wear and tear, expected consumption
through use or improper care or service.

Other Legal Disclaimers:

The above remedy for product defects through repair or replacement by an authorized Smithco distributor or dealer is
the purchaser’s sole remedy for any defect. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other
rights which vary from state to state.

THERE ARE NO OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THOSE SET FORTH ABOVE. ALL IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR USE ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE
LIMITED WARRANTIES CONTAINED HEREIN.

Some states may not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not
apply to you.

THE SMITHCO COMPANY IS NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES IN
CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING ANY COST OR EXPENSE OF PROVIDING A
SUBSTITUTE PRODUCT OR SERVICE DURING PERIODS OF MALFUNCTION OR NON-USE.

Some states may not allow the exclusion of indirect, incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion
may not apply to you.

Smithco neither assumes, nor authorizes any person to assume for it, any other liability in connection with
the sale or use of this product.
