Customers must clean units before returning them for service. Units returned in

charge if due to faulty materials and/or workmanship. If defective for any other
reason, the unit will be repaired and the customer charged for the cost of the
labor and materials for the repair plus return delivery costs.
If unit must be returned to Town, carefully pack (preferably in the original

and turn it slightly to the right
and left to insure it is properly
positioned on the heating plate.
