UnderCovers’ not painted at the UnderCover factory are excluded from this warranty.

EXCLUSIONS OF THIS WARRANTY:
Not covered under this warranty is failure due to neglect, improper installation including any modifications to installation hardware, operating the truck with your UnderCover in the open position, use in competitive racing, alterations, addition of equipment, abuse, accident, weather related damage, exposure to chemicals that are not labeled “safe for plastics”, and normal wear and tear from lack of maintenance. UnderCovers not painted at the UnderCover factory are excluded from the lifetime paint warranty.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to drive with your cover in the open position or tie down your cover while in the open position. When hauling material that is taller than the truck bed height, you should remove the cover, store it, and then properly haul oversized material. Tying the cover down when open will cause severe stress to the front hinges and could cause one or both of the hinges to crack and possibly tear out. This type of damage is not considered a manufacturer defect. Always read the ingredients of any product you are using to clean your UnderCover tonneau. Use only products that are safe for use with plastics. Many chemicals contain material that will permanently discolor your tonneau. This is not considered a manufacturer defect.
OWNER RESPONSIBILITIES:
Incidental or consequential damage or loss of contents due to use, neglect, lack of maintenance, misuse, or abuse of the UnderCover tonneau is the sole responsibility of the truck owner and operator. Paint wear to the truck’s bed can happen with the use of any truck bed cover, and is the sole responsibility of the truck owner. Materials such as 3M Scotchgard™ or other clear paint protective films may be used to help prevent possible paint damage. Ask your dealer for other recommendations. Paint damage to your truck is not covered under this warranty. When in the closed position, your tonneau must be locked and the tailgate must be closed. Failure to do so could result in sudden opening of the tonneau cover from unexpected heavy winds, which could cause damage to the truck and/or your tonneau cover.

In the event that your UnderCover tonneau is found to be defective under the terms of this warranty, it is at the discretion of UnderCover, Inc. to repair or replace the defective part. All repairs must be made by an authorized UnderCover dealer or under direction of UnderCover, Inc. In the case of either event, UnderCover, Inc. is not responsible for any transportation costs associated with the warranted claim.

MAINTENANCE & CARE:
The ABS polymer body of your UnderCover requires only periodic cleaning with mild car wash soap. ONLY USE CLEANERS, WAXES, OR PRODUCTS THAT ARE LABELED, “Safe for use on plastics”. Do not let chemicals or substances come into contact with your UnderCover, unless labeled “Safe for plastics”. Avoid use of abrasive type cleaners as they may dull the finish. Be sure that products such as OFF® or other insecticides do not get on the cover from contact with your hands or other parts of your body. This could cause serious damage and discoloration.
FOR UNDERCOVER SE SMOOTH COVERS ONLY:
The ABS polymer body of your UnderCover SE Smooth tonneau has a finish that is intended to be painted with an automotive paint finish. Without an automotive paint finish applied, the cover is susceptible to sun fade and degradation. Once the cover is painted, follow the paint shop or dealer instructions for care and maintenance of the paint finish. Paint finish is not covered by this warranty.
FOR UNDERCOVER PAINTED COVERS ONLY:
The paint finish on your UnderCover LUX/Elite LX is a base coat/clear coat automotive finish. Care for the painted finish on the cover as you do the painted finish on your truck. Avoid using any abrasive cleaners or cloths on your cover. Use only cleaners and waxes that are safe for use on clear coat paint finishes.
