SERVICE CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

These terms and conditions (“Terms and Conditions”), the sales invoice and/or receipt for Your Product, and the attached Certificate of Coverage (“Certificate”) set forth the entire “Service Contract” between Us and You with respect to the subject matter hereof. No other representation, promise or condition shall modify this Service Contract.

“We”, “Us”, “Our” or the “Obligor” (regardless of capitalization), throughout this Service Contract, refer to Electrolux Canada Corp. Our address is 5855 Terry Fox Way, Mississauga, ON L5V 3E4 Canada. We, as the Obligor, are contractually obligated to provide the purchaser (“You”, “Your” or “Contract holder”, regardless of capitalization) of the product described in the Certificate (the “Product” or “Covered Product”) Service under this Service Contract, where in accordance with and as allowed by provincial or territorial law, as applicable, during the period from the Effective Date to the Expiration Date (the “Term”).

HOW TO OBTAIN SERVICE:

Call 1-800-265-8352 to request Service. Service may only be performed by a repair technician authorized and designated by the Obligor (an “Authorized Service Technician”) to render Service for Your Claim. Instead of directly dispatching an Authorized Service Technician, the Obligor (in its sole discretion) may issue You a pre-authorization number for Service and provide the name of the nearest available Authorized Service Technician, in which case You will inform the Authorized Service Technician of Your Certificate/Service Contract Number and pre-authorization number when You schedule Service.

WHAT IS COVERED:

During the Term, we will provide without charge, the service calls and labor required to repair operational or mechanical breakdowns of the Product (“Service” and, depending upon the context, regardless of capitalization) provided such Service is necessitated by Product failure during normal usage and subject to all other Terms and Conditions of this Service Contract (a “Claim” regardless of capitalization). Such labor includes lubrication, adjustment, repair or replacement of functional parts (except light bulbs) provided that the Product has been installed and operated in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and is made readily accessible for Service. We will replace without charge, functional parts of the Product (except light bulbs) which fail to function in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and specifications under normal usage, provided such replacements are determined by Us to be necessary. Coverage does not apply to the accessories that are used in conjunction with or to enhance the performance of the Product.

If You request Service for a non-covered repair, You will be responsible for all costs associated with the repair. In the event You are unable to meet the Authorized Service Technician, You must call to cancel the appointment in advance of the agreed upon time of Service or You will be responsible for paying for the second trip for the rescheduled Service. This Service Contract must be paid in full prior to any Service being rendered.

AVAILABILITY OF SERVICE:

Services due under this Extended Service Agreement shall be available and rendered during regular working hours of the Authorized Service Technician.

PRODUCT REPLACEMENT:

To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, our limit of liability is the actual cash value of the Product in operating condition at the time of the Claim. We determine actual cash value based on factors such as the cost of replacement less any depreciation. Depreciation is assessed based on the condition of the Product immediately before the failure occurred and the normal product life expectancy. At Our complete discretion, We may opt to replace Your Product with a new or refurbished product with similar features and functionality (though not necessarily the same brand, fit or finish). Technological advancements may result in a replacement product with a lower selling price than the Product. If We replace the Product after expiry of the manufacturer’s warranty, and during the Term, then Our obligations under this Service Contract will immediately be deemed fulfilled and this Service Contract will end on the date of replacement.

PARTS:

Parts used to repair the Product will be genuine replacement parts whenever possible, designed to work with the Product. However, at Our option, We may use refurbished parts that perform to the factory specifications of the Product. If We determine that We are unable to repair the Product due to the unavailability of functional parts, We will, at Our option, either replace the Product with a product with equivalent specifications or provide a monetary settlement, as described in the CLAIMS LIMITATION section below. In all cases where parts are on an extended backorder for a minimum of sixty (60) days, We will determine if a reimbursement or replacement will be made.

FOOD SPOILAGE:

In the event of a Claim for Your refrigerator or freezer that results in a prolonged and continuous outage of 12 hours or more for refrigerated food and 24 hours or more for frozen foods, You are eligible to receive reimbursement for the replacement of incidental spoiled food up to $250 CAD during the Term of this Service Contract. NOTICE: You will be required to submit proof of purchase (sales receipt/invoice) of the replacement items to the Obligor in order to receive this reimbursement.

RENEWAL:

This Service Contract is renewable at the sole discretion and option of the Obligor. In most cases, renewal is available through the 10th year of the life of the Product. However, such renewal may not be available for such periods. The cost to You of renewing this Service Contract is subject to change due to the age of the Product and current Service costs. Therefore, the cost of renewing this Service Contract may vary from year to year.
