Introduction
Our one-piece, steel frame Tri-Fold Sofa requires no spare mattress to store. In just four simple steps, it transforms
into a comfortable bed. Traditional hide-a-beds have uncomfortable mattresses with support bars that can make
sleeping uncomfortable. Air mattress hide-a-beds eliminate the support bar issue, but can be damaged more easily
and become unusable. The Tri-Fold Sofa coverts from sofa to a very supportive, high-density foam sleep surface in
four simple steps. Now campers can actually look forward to sleeping on the couch!

herein, sold by Lippert Components, Inc. or its subsidiaries or affiliates (the direct seller being the only warrantor

are not in their original form. Failure to give us proper or timely notice of a claimed defect, or failure to return the
defective Product, or performing any modification, self-help, or alteration of the Product, without our prior written
approval, will constitute an absolute waiver and release of all your claims and rights under this Warranty.

WILL NOT BE CONSTRUED TO EXTEND TO ANY THIRD-PARTY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE ULTIMATE

Indemnity. You agree to indemnify and hold us, as well as our officers, agents, employees, and representatives,
harmless from and against all claims, causes of action, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, and proceedings,

choose our own counsel, you will also defend us from any such claims, causes of action, or proceedings.
Statute of Limitations. Any action, lawsuit or other proceeding, under this Warranty or otherwise, related to the
Product MUST be commenced within one (1) year after the earlier of (a) the expiration of the Warranty coverage
period, (b) our alleged failure to repair the defect at issue; or (c) the date on which your claim accrues under
applicable law. Unless prohibited by law, the performance of repairs will not prevent the limitations period from
expiring, nor will any tolling or estoppel doctrine apply. This Warranty does not extend to future performance.

State of Indiana without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Any disagreement, dispute, controversy, or claim
arising out of or relating to this Warranty MUST be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules
of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. In the event you bring any claim against us in violation of this Warranty or for claims waived or released
under this Warranty, you agree to pay our attorney and paralegal fees and costs to defend such suit.

dealer that is not in accordance with this Warranty. The current warranties and terms outlined on the Warrantor’s
website (www.lci1.com) applicable on the date of purchase take precedence over any other warranties, whether
oral or written. We reserve the right to alter our warranties from time to time, as the laws and our business needs
and industry change. Any conditions or exceptions that may be stated in any communication or document to us
from any entity or individual, including but not limited to the retail purchaser or consumer, shall be of no effect
unless specifically agreed to in writing and hand-signed by our authorized representative.

provisions enforceable. We have all rights and remedies given to sellers by applicable law, and our rights and
remedies are cumulative and may be exercised from time to time. No waiver by us of any provision of this Warranty

to exercise thereafter any right or remedy. We will not lose any right because we have not exercised that right in
the past.
