WARRANTY

McDonald's ORIGINAL STANDARD EQUIPMENT LIMITED WARRANTY

Perfect Fry warrants to the original purchaser of its commercial cooking appliances and related equipment that said appliances and related equipment will be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use for a period of two (2) years from the date of installation, with appropriate documentation, to a maximum of twenty-eight (28) months from the date of manufacture, subject to the following additions, exceptions, exclusions and limitations.

This warranty is limited to the repair or replacement at the Company’s option, without charge, of any part found to be defective within the warranty period and reasonable expenses incurred for freight and material for the installation of such part; in addition, the Company’s obligation shall be limited to reimbursement for normal labor on such parts. Perfect Fry, Inc. agrees to pay the Authorized Service and Parts Distributor, for any labor and material required to repair or replace, at the Company’s option, any part which may fail due to defects in material or workmanship during the above general warranty period.

• Do not install the appliance in a home or residence.

• Maintain the appliance properly. This is the responsibility of the purchaser of the appliance and the procedures are outlined in the manual.

• Replace the air lter at regular intervals to prevent lter saturation. Failure to do so could result in a non-warranty main fan failure due to grease build up.

This warranty specically excludes parts which wear or would be replaced under normal usage, including, but not limited to, electric lamps, fuses, interior or exterior nishes, lters and gaskets.

Charges for mileage over one hundred (100) miles and travel time over two (2) hours from the Authorized Service and Parts Distributor are not covered

under this warranty. Extended mileage charges are the responsibility of the individual or rm requesting these services.

This limited warranty constitutes the complete, nal and exclusive statement with regard to warranties. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES WHETHER WRITTEN, ORAL OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR WARRANTY AGAINST LATENT DEFECTS.

This repair or replacement will be at the expense of Perfect Fry except as limited by this warranty statement.

Parts covered under this warranty will be repaired or replaced, at the Company’s discretion, with new or functionally operative parts. The liability of Perfect Fry on any claim of any kind, including claims based on warranty, express or implied contract, negligence, strict liability or any other legal theories will be limited to the

repair or replacement of the appliance.
