fied or used in a manner contrary to its intended purpose; the unit has been damaged
by accident, unreasonable use, neglect, improper service, installation or other causes not

will determine what constitutes excessive damage and may refuse the return of any unit
with excessive damage. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, ALL

exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights and you may also have other rights that vary from State to State.
