period. The Viking warranty does not cover any additional ventilation products used in conjunction with Viking
hoods or ventilator kits. This includes, but is not limited to, such devices as booster fans or in-line blowers. Any

Viking Range Corporation uses the most up-to-date processes and best materials available to produce all color
finishes. However, slight color variation may be noticed because of the inherent differences in painted parts and
porcelain parts as well as differences in kitchen lighting, product locations, and other factors.

Any hood blower motor which fails due to defective materials or workmanship in normal household use during
the second year through the fifth year from the date of original retail purchase will be repaired or replaced, free of
charge for the part itself, with the owner paying all other costs, including labor.

NINETY (90) DAY RESIDENTIAL PLUS WARRANTY

are, but not limited to, bed and breakfasts, fire stations, private clubs, churches, etc. This warranty excludes all
commercial locations such as restaurants, food service locations and institutional food service locations.

LIFETIME LIMITED WARRANTY (Outdoor Models Only)

Any stainless steel part which rusts through due to defective materials or workmanship in normal use during the
second year through the useful lifetime of the unit from date of original retail purchase will be repaired or
replaced free of charge for the part itself, with the owner paying all other costs including labor.

This warranty extends to the original purchaser of the product warranted hereunder and to each transferee owner
of the product during the term of warranty.

This warranty shall apply to products purchased and located in the United States and Canada. Products must be
purchased in the country where service is requested. Warranty labor shall be performed by an authorized Viking
Range Corporation service agency or representative. Warranty shall not apply to damage resulting from abuse,
accident, natural disaster, loss of electrical power to the product by anyone other than an authorized Viking
Range Corporation service agency or representative. This warranty does not apply to commercial usage.
Warrantor is not responsible for consequential or incidental damage whether arising out of breach of warranty,
breach of contract, or otherwise. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

Owner shall be responsible for proper installation, providing normal care and maintenance, providing proof of
purchase upon request, and making the appliance reasonably accessible for service. If the product or one of its
component parts contains a defect or malfunction during the warranty period, after a reasonable number of
attempts by the warrantor to remedy the defects or malfunctions, the owner is entitled to either a refund or
replacement of the product or its component part or parts. Replacement of a component part includes its free
installation. Warrantor’s liability on any claim of any kind, with respect to the goods or services covered
hereunder, shall in no case exceed the price of the goods or service or part thereof which gives rise to the claim.

Viking Range Corporation service agent or representative. Service will be provided during normal business

Registration Card so that Viking Range Corporation can contact you should any question of safety arise which could affect you.

Any implied warranties of merchantability and fitness applicable to the above described hood or ventilator

forth above. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above
limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights
which may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
