Technical Advice and Recommendations, Disclaimer. Notwithstanding any past practice or dealings or trade custom, sales shall not include the furnishing of technical advice or assistance or

system design. Dayton assumes no obligations or liability on account of any unauthorized recommendations, opinions or advice as to the choice, installation or use of products.

Product Suitability. Many jurisdictions have codes and regulations governing sales, construction, installation, and/or use of products for certain purposes, which may vary from those in

neighboring areas. While attempts are made to assure that Dayton products comply with such codes, Dayton cannot guarantee compliance, and cannot be responsible for how the product

is installed or used. Before purchase and use of a product, review the product applications, and all applicable national and local codes and regulations, and be sure that the product,

installation, and use will comply with them.

Certain aspects of disclaimers are not applicable to consumer products; e.g., (a) some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the

above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you; (b) also, some jurisdictions do not allow a limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, consequently the above limitation may

not apply to you; and (c) by law, during the period of this Limited Warranty, any implied warranties of implied merchantability or ﬁtness for a particular purpose applicable to consumer

products purchased by consumers, may not be excluded or otherwise disclaimed.

Prompt Disposition. A good faith effort will be made for prompt correction or other adjustment with respect to any product which proves to be defective within limited warranty. For

any product believed to be defective within limited warranty, ﬁrst write or call dealer from whom the product was purchased. Dealer will give additional directions. If unable to resolve

satisfactorily, write to Dayton at address below, giving dealer’s name, address, date, and number of dealer’s invoice, and describing the nature of the defect. Title and risk of loss pass to

buyer on delivery to common carrier. If product was damaged in transit to you, ﬁle claim with carrier.
