10 Warranty

SUMMARY OF WARRANTY

Crown International, 1718 West Mishawaka Road, 
Elkhart, Indiana 46517-4095 U.S.A. warrants to 
you, the ORIGINAL PURCHASER and ANY SUB-
SEQUENT OWNER of each NEW Crown product, 
for a period of three (3) years from the date of 
purchase by the original purchaser (the “warranty 
period”) that the new Crown product is free of 
defects in materials and workmanship. We further 
warrant the new Crown product regardless of the 
reason for failure, except as excluded in this War-
ranty.

Warranty is only valid within the country in which 
the product was purchased.

ITEMS EXCLUDED FROM THIS 
CROWN WARRANTY

This Crown Warranty is in effect only for failure of 
a new Crown product which occurred within the 
Warranty Period. It does not cover any product 
which has been damaged because of any inten-
tional misuse, accident, negligence, or loss which 
is covered under any of your insurance contracts. 
This Crown Warranty also does not extend to the 
new Crown product if the serial number has been 
defaced, altered, or removed.

WHAT THE WARRANTOR WILL DO

We will remedy any defect, regardless of the rea-
son for failure (except as excluded), by repair, 
replacement, or refund. We may not elect refund 
unless you agree, or unless we are unable to pro-
vide replacement, and repair is not practical or 
cannot be timely made. If a refund is elected, then 
you must make the defective or malfunctioning 
product available to us free and clear of all liens 
or other encumbrances. The refund will be equal 

to the actual purchase price, not including inter-
est, insurance, closing costs, and other finance 
charges less a reasonable depreciation on the 
product from the date of original purchase. War-
ranty work can only be performed at our autho-
rized service centers or at the factory. Warranty 
work for some products can only be performed at 
our factory. We will remedy the defect and ship 
the product from the service center or our factory 
within a reasonable time after receipt of the defec-
tive product at our authorized service center or 
our factory. All expenses in remedying the defect, 
including surface shipping costs in the United 
States, will be borne by us. (You must bear the 
expense of shipping the product between any for-
eign country and the port of entry in the United 
States including the return shipment, and all 
taxes, duties, and other customs fees for such for-
eign shipments.)

HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY 
SERVICE

You must notify us of your need for warranty ser-
vice within the warranty period. All components 
must be shipped in a factory pack, which, if 
needed, may be obtained from us free of charge. 
Corrective action will be taken within a reason-
able time of the date of receipt of the defective 
product by us or our authorized service center. If 
the repairs made by us or our authorized service 
center are not satisfactory, notify us or our autho-
rized service center immediately.
