One (1) Year Limited Warranty

This One (1) Year Limited Warranty applies to purchases made from authorized retailers of Instant Pot Brands Inc. (“Instant Pot Brands”) by the original appliance owner and is not transferable.  Proof of original purchase date and, if requested by Instant Pot Brands, return of your appliance, is required to obtain service under this Limited Warranty.  Provided the appliance was used in accordance with the use & care instructions, Instant Pot Brands will, in its sole and exclusive discretion, either: (i) repair defects in materials or workmanship; or (ii) replace the appliance.  In the event that your appliance is replaced, the Limited Warranty on the replacement appliance will expire twelve (12) months from the date of receipt.  Failure to register your product will not reduce your warranty rights.  The liability of Instant Pot Brands, if any, for any allegedly defective appliance or part will not exceed the purchase price of a comparable replacement appliance. 

1. What is not covered by this warranty?
2. Products purchased, used, or operated outside of the United States and Canada.
3. Products that have been modified or attempted to be modified. 
4. Damage resulting from accident, alteration, misuse, abuse, neglect, unreasonable use, use contrary to the operating instructions, normal wear and tear, commercial use, improper assembly, disassembly, failure to provide reasonable and necessary maintenance, fire, flood, acts of God, or repair by anyone unless directed by an Instant Pot Brands representative.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN AND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, INSTANT POT BRANDS MAKES NO WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY STATUTE, USAGE, CUSTOM OF TRADE OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLIANCES OR PARTS COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, OR REPRESENTATIONS OF WORKMANSHIP, MERCHANTABILITY, MERCHANTABLE QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR DURABILITY.

Some states or provinces do not allow for: (1) the exclusion of implied warranties of merchantability or fitness; (2) limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts; and/or (3) the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages; so these limitations may not apply to you.  In these states and provinces, you have only the implied warranties that are expressly required to be provided in accordance with applicable law.  The limitations of warranties, liability, and remedies apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.  This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state or province to province.

PFAS

This product contains PTFE.

PTFE, PFA and FEP are all fluoropolymers that create a non-stick surface on the food-contact surface of cookware and bakeware products. Although inert solids, PTFE, PFA and FEP are classified as PFAS substances and must be disclosed.

Given that PFAS is a broad categorization that includes thousands of fluorochemicals, we recommend visiting the below source to learn more about the different types of PFAS substances.
