  1. WHAT THIS LIMITED WARRANTY COVERS; PERIOD OF COVERAGE
    Nest Labs, Inc. (“Nest Labs”), 3400 Hillview Avenue, Palo Alto, California USA, warrants to the owner of the enclosed Nest-branded product contained in this box (“Product”) will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year (if the Product is a Nest Thermostat E or a Nest Temperature Sensor) or two (2) years (for any other Product) from the date of delivery following the original retail purchase (the “Warranty Period”). The Warranty Period is extended for an additional two (2) years (if the Product is a Nest Thermostat E) or an additional three (3) years (if the Product is a Nest Learning Thermostat or a Nest Protect smoke/CO alarm) sold to you and installed by a Nest Pro who, if applicable, enters a valid Nest Pro ID during setup. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warranty Period for a factory refurbished Product is one (1) year, even if installed by a Nest Pro. If the Product fails to conform to this Limited Warranty during the Warranty Period, Nest Labs will, at its sole discretion, either (a) repair or replace any defective Product or component; or (b) accept the return of the Product and refund the money actually paid by the original purchaser for the Product. Repair or replacement may be made with a new or refurbished product or components, at Nest Labs’ sole discretion. If the Product or a component incorporated within it is no longer available, Nest Labs may, at Nest Labs’ sole discretion, replace the Product with a similar product of similar function. This is your sole and exclusive remedy for breach of this Limited Warranty. Any Product that has either been repaired or replaced under this Limited Warranty will be covered by the terms of this Limited Warranty for the longer of (a) ninety (90) days from the date of delivery of the repaired Product or replacement Product, or (b) the remaining Warranty Period. This Limited Warranty is transferable from the original purchaser to subsequent owners, but the Warranty Period will not be extended in duration or expanded in coverage for any such transfer.
  2. TOTAL SATISFACTION RETURN POLICY
