No Tie-In Sales Requirement

Use of non-Original parts, accessories, or services will not void this warranty. However, damage directly caused by such items is not covered. Birch may require use of Birch parts only when provided free of charge. See 16 C.F.R. §700.10.

Implied Warranties

Birch does not disclaim implied warranties. To the extent permitted by law and because this is a Limited warranty, the duration of all implied warranties (including the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose) is limited to the Warranty Period stated in Section 3. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so this limitation may not apply to you.

Limitation of Remedies; Incidental and Consequential Damages

To the extent permitted by law, Birch is not liable for incidental, special, indirect, or consequential damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so this limitation may not apply to you.

State Law Rights

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

Dispute Resolution Options

You are not required to use arbitration or any informal dispute settlement mechanism to pursue rights under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act unless Birch provides a mechanism that complies with 16 C.F.R. Part 703 and clearly identifies it here. Birch does not require arbitration to obtain warranty performance. If Birch offers a voluntary dispute resolution program, details will be posted at the URL in Section 15.

Transferability

This warranty applies only to the original consumer purchaser and is not transferable, unless required by applicable law.
