purchased and installed in North, Central and South America.
2. TOTO’s obligations under this warranty are limited to repair, replacement or other appropri-
ate adjustment, at TOTO’s option, of the Product or parts found to be defective in normal

instructions. TOTO reserves the right to make such inspections as may be necessary in order to
determine the cause of the defect. TOTO will not charge for labor or parts in connection with
warranty repairs or replacements. TOTO is not responsible for the cost of removal, return and/

TRY.
