LIMITED WARRANTY RESIDENTIAL We congratulate you on your choice of Çimstone slab (hereinafter “Çimstone”) for the fabrication of your countertop. Thanks to the merits of quartz, Çimstone is a strong and durable countertop material. It is nonporous, stain-free and highly abrasion, scratch and impact resistant. There is no need for sealing or polishing, thus it is virtually maintenance-free. Çimstone has an exquisite look fortified with supreme durability. The long-lasting lustre and natural elegance of your countertop fabricated from Çimstone requires only simple and routine care to maintain its splendor. By following Çimstone’s care and maintenance guidelines you may enjoy the natural beauty of Çimstone for many years to come. We, as AKG Trading Ltd., warrant that Çimstone slabs that have been permanently installed in the interior of residences for countertop usage and cared for in accordance with maintenance guidelines will be free from any manufacturing defects in material for a period of 10 years from the date of installation. This limited warranty does not cover any defects by further fabrication, installation or misuse of the countertop. Please read this document carefully and do not forget to activate your 10 Year Limited Warranty. Çimstone is a nonporous material that is highly stain, scratch and abrasion resistant, thus it is virtually maintenance-free and hygienic. With its aesthetic appearance and ease of usage Çimstone is ideal for a wide range of applications from kitchen and bath countertops to table tops. Please read in detail the Care and Maintenance leaflet for caring and cleaning of Çimstone. Easy daily cleaning The ever-lasting finish of your countertop made of Çimstone requires only simple and routine care to maintain its good look. Cleaning with a damp cloth and a little liquid detergent will give an excellent result. Just wipe away and the surface will attain its initial look again. Stubborn stains and dried spills It is easier to immediately clean away spills on the surface than removing them once they have dried-on. Pay due attention and meticulous care to wipe away any spilled food before it turns into a permanent stain. Any multi-purpose cleaner or detergent [listed in the Çimstone Care and Maintenance leaflet in detail] can be safely applied on stubborn stains provided that water is used to rinse the surface thoroughly of the detergent residues after treatment. For extra-stubborn spills, use a light-coloured Scotch-Brite (3M) sponge to remove the dirt. Cleaning liquids like bleach and gel cleaners containing bleach are also good for removing stubborn stains. However, Çimstone slabs containing seashells as effect materials should not be cleaned with bleach and with products that contain soft or hard scouring granules since they are more prone to damage. Surfaces should never be left to dry without thoroughly rinsing away residual cleansers. Polishing The gloss of Çimstone is attributable to the natural sheen of quartz. Çimstone slabs do not require additional polishing. The surface should not be sealed or polished. Çimstone is tough but not indestructible As with any surface, Çimstone can be permanently damaged by exposure to strong chemicals and solvents that undermine its physical properties. Cleansers with high levels of acids or alkalis (e.g. hydrochloric acid), if not well rinsed with water after treatment, may affect Çimstone within time. Scratch resistant Çimstone has a highly scratch resistant surface; however avoid abuse of the surface by using sharp objects directly onto the surface. Always, protect the surface by using chopping board under all conditions. Heat resistance Çimstone can tolerate brief exposures to moderately hot temperatures without warping, staining, discoloring or cracking. However, prolonged contact with very hot objects or an open flame may cause damage on the surface. When exposed to high temperatures, Çimstone can react in various ways (cracking, discoloration, porosity etc). Always, protect the surface by using a trivet. We, AKG Trading (UK) Ltd. (“AKG Trading”), hereby warrant that Çimstone branded slabs will remain free from defects arising from the manufacture of the slab for a period of 10 years for the United Kingdom market from the date of installation. It covers any defects in the manufacture of the original Çimstone slabs. The subsequent fabrication, installation and workmanship are not covered under this warranty. This warranty is valid for the slabs installed with respect to the Çimstone Fabrication and Application Manual and main-tained with respect to Çimstone Care and Maintenance leaflet and is to be activated by your registration online at www.cimstone.co.uk within 30 (thirty) days of the installation. Terms and conditions: Çimstone slabs are manufactured from natural quartz minerals, therefore they reflect the characteristics of the quartz used in production. This may cause some variation in colour and partial shade and texture alterations in the finished products. Each slab is unique and minor imperfections, slight colour and texture variations may be considered normal. There are even colour and texture variations between the samples and the full slabs. Therefore, final colour selection must be made from an actual full slab of Çimstone. This warranty; • Only applies to Çimstone slabs which are purchased from the United Kingdom market and manufactured from A grade slabs. • Only applies to slabs that have been installed properly by approved fabricators and according to the Çimstone Fabrication and Application Manual. • Only applies to Çimstone slabs which were installed in a domestic residence for countertop usage after 01 October 2011. • Only available to a person who activated the 10 Year Limited Warranty by completing and submitting the registration from online at www.cimstone.co.uk within 30 days following the installation of Çimstone in a residence for countertop usage. A domestic residence shall relate to any location which is a private residence used for familial habitation and for no commercial purpose whatsoever. • This warranty is not transferable or assignable. Available only when the Çimstone slab has been fully paid for. • Valid only when the Çimstone slab is used for the specific purpose as countertops. This limited warranty is valid when the Çimstone slab is permanently installed and has not been moved from the original installation. • Applicable to Çimstone slabs that have been cared and maintained according to the instructions in the Çimstone Care and Maintenance leaflet. • The obligation of AKG Trading for a period of 10 years is limited to either replace the defective Çimstone slab with the same features (colour, thickness, etc) as those of the Çimstone slab acquired by the original purchaser in terms and conditions specified herein, or refund the purchase price of the slab. However, if the production of colour has been ceased, it will be replaced, where possible, by a similar colour available at that time. CARE AND MAINTENANCE WARRANTY TERMS AND CONDITIONS
