Because FoodSaver cannot control the quality of Products sold by unauthorized sellers, this warranty applies only to Products that were purchased from FoodSaver or a FoodSaver authorized seller in the United States, unless otherwise prohibited by law. FoodSaver reserves the right to reject warranty claims for Products purchased from unauthorized sellers, including unauthorized Internet sites.

This warranty does not cover normal wear of parts or damage resulting from any of the following: products used for commercial purposes, negligent use or misuse of the product; use on improper voltage or current; use contrary to the operating instructions provided by FoodSaver; disassembly, repair, or alteration by anyone other than FoodSaver or an authorized FoodSaver service center. FoodSaver expressly excludes from this warranty and denies liability for defects or damage caused by repair or alteration by anyone other than FoodSaver. Further, the warranty does not cover: Acts of God, such as fire, flood, hurricanes and tornadoes. No terms of this warranty may be construed to apply to non-warranty service and maintenance. Accordingly, FoodSaver also denies liability for defects and damage caused by repair or alteration outside the terms of this warranty.

This warranty is valid for the original retail purchaser from the date of delivery and is not transferable (except where prohibited by law, which may include the Province of Québec). Please keep your proof of purchase or original sales receipt.
