UNOX Warranty Conditions - AU
End users (“
End Users”) who have purchased an appliance (the “
Product”) from an authorized dealer of UNOX Australia PTY LTD (“
UNOX”) may be entitled to a manufacturer’s warranty (the “

Warranty Term”) is, with respect to labor, Product or Parts thereof (such parts being hereinafter referred to as “
Spare Parts”), 12 months from the earlier of (i) the date of End User’s dealer invoice and (ii) the date of installation of the Product at the End User’s location (the “
Warranty Start Date”) provided, however, that, upon failure from End-User to provide to UNOX, upon request, supporting and satisfying evidence of such End User’s Dealer invoice date or installation date, as shall be determined by UNOX in its sole discretion, then the Warranty Start Date may, at UNOX's sole discretion, be the date of UNOX's invoice to its own dealer.
b) For CHEFTOP and BAKERTOP MIND.Maps™ ovens and BAKERLUX SHOP.Pro™ ovens only, and only if End User has purchased or otherwise has been provided with a LONG.LIFE4 extended warranty (the “

2. If End User decides not to buy, or is not provided with the Extended Warranty, in order to make a claim under the Limited Warranty, End User will need to furnish UNOX a copy of End User’s dealer invoice and sufficient proof (as determined by UNOX in its sole discretion) of the installation date and the type of Product in the form of a written confirmation or an invoice for installation issued by an authorised service agent of UNOX (“
Service Agent”).

b) For Products subject to the Extended Warranty, during the applicable Warranty Term, and if and only if (i) such Product is unaltered and unmodified by End User or any third party and is properly used as set forth in UNOX’s specifications and instructions of use and (ii) none of the exclusions in paragraph 8 of these warranty conditions apply, End User’s sole remedy under the Extended Warranty shall be (i) for the 12 month period after initial 12 months following Warranty Start Date, at UNOX’s sole cost and expense and in UNOX’s sole discretion, (i) repair, or (ii) return and replacement (including, in each of the foregoing cases (i) and (ii), any cost of UNOX’s or its Service Agent’s work associated therewith), of the Product (including any Spare Parts), and (ii) for a period which shall be the shorter of (A) thirty-six (36) months after the initial twelve (12) months following the Warranty Start Date, and (B) ten thousand (10,000) hours of working and/or stand-by time of such Product has been reached, if earlier, as determined by the Product’s internal clock, at UNOX’s sole cost and expense, replacement of the Product and/or Spare Parts only.

Non-compliance with these minimum standards will potentially damage Products and/or Spare Parts, which, at UNOX’s sole discretion, may nullify and void the original Limited Warranty or Extended Warranty, as applicable);
