Kohler Power Boost Generator - 45kW ERES Model - Stationary Standby Five-Year Limited Warranty
Your Kohler product has been manufactured and inspected with care by experienced craftsmen. If you are the original retail owner, Kohler Co. warrants, for the period indicated below, each product to be free from defects in materials and workmanship. Repair, replacement, or appropriate adjustment at Kohler Co.’s option will be furnished if the product, upon Kohler Co.’s inspection, is found to be properly installed, maintained, and operated in accordance with Kohler Co.’s instruction manuals. If a Kohler distributor, dealer, or authorized representative performs startup within 12 months of the date of shipment from the factory, warranty coverage will begin on the startup date. This warranty does not apply to malfunctions caused by damage, unreasonable use, misuse, repair or service by unauthorized persons, or normal wear and tear.
During the warranty period, repair or replacement at Kohler Co.’s option will be furnished free of charge for parts, provided an inspection to Kohler Co.’s satisfaction discloses a defect in material and workmanship, and provided that the part or parts are returned to Kohler Co. or an authorized service station, if requested. Labor is chargeable to warranty during the first two (2) years of the warranty period. Some restrictions may apply.
