IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE WARRANTY OF 
MERCHANTABILITY, ARE LIMITED TO THE PERIOD OF THE LIMITED 
WARRANTY.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or 
consequential damages, or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so 
the exclusions may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights 
which vary from state to state. If a problem with this product develops during or 
after the warranty period, you may contact your dealer or Servicenter. If the
