ZODIAC POOL SYSTEMS, INC. WARRANTS THE S3 ROBOTIC POOL CLEANER AGAINST MANUFACTURING DEFECTS FOR (2) YEARS. ALL
WARRANTIES ARE EFFECTIVE FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE.
Should this product prove defective in workmanship, materials during the applicable warranty period, the consumer’s sole and exclusive

THE LIMITED WARRANTY PROVIDED HEREIN IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE WRITTEN WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE S3 ROBOTIC
POOL CLEANER. ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES IMPOSED BY APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY. SOME STATES DO NOT
ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY EXCLUDES THE FOLLOWING:
1. Discoloration of the S3 Robotic pool cleaner. This is caused by reaction to ultraviolet rays and the chemicals used in the pool water.
Discoloration does not affect the operating ability of the S3 Robotic. Therefore, this Limited Warranty does not cover the replacement of
discolored parts.
2. Damage to or malfunction of the unit resulting from excess chlorination or improper water chemistry balance.
3. Normal wear and tear of expendable parts including, but not limited to, filter elements, drive belts, drive tracks, brushes, rollers, and
floating cables.
4. Age, pool water imbalance, and improper installation can cause vinyl pool liners to become brittle or unduly wrinkled. Corrosion of the
supporting walls and/or irregularities in the pool base may also cause liner failure. The use of this product in such an environment is at the pool
owner’s risk. Therefore, the pool owner hereby releases the manufacturer from any and all claims for damage where these conditions exist.
5. The S3 Robotic is designed for use in in-ground pools only. If unit is used in any other application, the pool owner hereby releases the
manufacturer from any and all claims. This misuse will void all warranty on the unit.
6. Electrical damage caused by lightning or a bad electrical connection.
7. Abnormal use, misuse, mishandling or alteration of the S3 Robotic.
8. Under no circumstances will the warranty period on the appliance be extended or renewed as a result of a repair or replacement made under
the terms of the warranty.
9. In no event shall Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. be liable in contract or in tort, or under any other legal theory, for lost profits or revenues, loss of
use or similar economic loss, or for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or similar damages, even if it has been advised of the possibility
of such claim. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you.
