Service

English 32

rized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially
trained on Bosch products, and who possess, in Bosch 's opinion, a superior rep-
utation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are independent
entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of Bosch). Not-
withstanding the foregoing, Bosch will not incur any liability, or have responsibility,
for the Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an
authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous, threaten-
ing, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you
request, Bosch would still pay for labor and parts and ship the parts to the nearest
authorized service provider, but you would still be fully liable and responsible for
any travel time or other special charges by the service company, assuming they
agree to make the service call.
