A 10-YEAR CORROSION WARRANTY APPLIES TO INSTALLATIONS LOCATED 100 KM OR MORE INLAND, UNDER STANDARD ATMOSPHERIC AND USAGE CONDITIONS. THE PURCHASER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PROVIDING ACCURATE LOCATION DETAILS, AND WARRANTY COVERAGE WILL BE DETERMINED BASED ON THESE. WARRANTY VALIDITY IS SUBJECT TO APPROPRIATE MAINTENANCE AND DOES NOT APPLY TO DAMAGE CAUSED BY MISUSE, NEGLECT, THIRD-PARTY MODIFICATIONS, OR EXTREME ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
