MASTERS Extended Warranty Terms and Conditions

Extended Warranty Terms and Conditions MASTERS Extended Warranty Terms and Conditions Congratulations on your new purchase. We are pleased that you have elected to protect your purchase with a MASTERS Extended Warranty, which operates alongside, and in addition to, your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. The Basics 1. For which products can You purchase a MASTERS Extended Warranty? The MASTERS Extended Warranty is available with purchases of any Electrical Product sold in a MASTERS store. A separate MASTERS Extended Warranty must be purchased for every item You wish to be covered under the MASTERS Extended Warranty. At the point of registration you must identify the item on Your Receipt that You wish to be covered under Your MASTERS Extended Warranty. If you purchase a MASTERS Extended Warranty for a bundled product package made up of up to 3 individual products, the benefits of the MASTERS Extended Warranty will apply separately to each of those individual products within that bundled package. For the purposes of the MASTERS Extended Warranty, the Purchase Price of each individual product within a bundled package will be the MASTERS standard sell price applicable to each respective individual product The following items cannot be covered by a MASTERS Extended Warranty: any non Electrical Product; any item not purchased from a MASTERS store in Australia; and any item that has been repaired outside Australia. You must purchase the MASTERS Extended Warranty applicable to the price range that corresponds with the Purchase Price of Your Covered Item. If the Purchase Price of Your Covered Item does not correspond to the applicable price range of Your MASTERS Extended Warranty, before we process a claim You will be required to pay to Us or We will pay to You (whichever is applicable) the difference between the cost of Your MASTERS Extended Warranty and the cost of the MASTERS Extended Warranty applicable to the price range that corresponds with the Purchase Price of Your Covered item. 2. When does Your MASTERS Extended Warranty commence and for how long does it apply? For Covered Items with a Manufacturer's Warranty of more than 12 months, the MASTERS Extended Warranty applies for up to 2 years commencing at the conclusion of the Manufacturer's Warranty, to a maximum combined total of 7 years on Air Conditioners and 5 years on all other items. For Electrical Products with no Manufacturer's Warranty or a Manufacturer's Warranty of less than 12 months, the MASTERS Extended Warranty applies for up to 2 years commencing on the date that is 1 year after the date of purchase as shown on Your Receipt.

Your MASTERS Extended Warranty ceases when the first of the following events occurs: We repair the Covered Item as a result of a claim where the cost of the repair, and any previous repairs, equals or exceeds the Purchase Price; We replace the Covered Item as a result of a claim; We provide You with a Gift Card as a result of a claim; in the case of Electrical Products with no Manufacturer's Warranty or a Manufacturer's Warranty of less than 12 months, the date that is 3 years after the date of purchase as shown on Your Receipt; or in the case of Covered Items with a Manufacturer's Warranty of more than 12 months, the earlier of: the date that is 2 years after the expiration of the Manufacturer s Warranty; or the date that is 7 years (for Air Conditioners) or 5 years (for all other Covered Items) from the date You purchased the relevant Covered Item. It is important for You to check the term of the Manufacturer s Warranty. If the Manufacturer's Warranty period for a Covered Item is greater than 5 years (in the case of Air Conditioners) or greater than 3 years (for all other Covered Items), the maximum period of the MASTERS Extended Warranty will be less than 2 years. If Your Covered Item is replaced under the terms of MASTERS's Returns Policy or pursuant to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, Your MASTERS Extended Warranty will expire immediately and you will be given a full refund of the Purchase Price of Your MASTERS Extended Warranty. You will, of course, be able to purchase a new MASTERS Extended Warranty to cover your replacement product. If you consider that your product suffers a defect before the commencement of Your MASTERS Extended Warranty, you cannot make a claim under the MASTERS Extended Warranty. You may be able to make a claim under the MASTERS Returns Policy, the Manufacturer's Warranty or the Australian Consumer Law or other applicable law. 3. Cooling off period If You decide for any reason within 14 days of purchase that You do not want a MASTERS Extended Warranty, You may return to the store from which You purchased the Covered Item and cancel Your MASTERS Extended Warranty in exchange for a full refund. 4.
