* Some warranty times can be negotiable due to unforseen complexities. Any extension to the standard
warranty times must be authorised by ARB.
** These parts are not considered serviceable items. Complete fridge replacement is required.
*** Light globes are only covered under warranty for the first 3 months after the initial purchase date.
ARB will not pay for the removal or replacement of a fridge freezer that has been built in, unless
authorisation is given by the ARB.
The warranty labour rate paid will be based on the average refrigeration service rate for the region of the
repairer.
Calculating total warranty time
The table above list warranty times for the service of individual components.
If a single item is serviced or replaced and the warranty time is less than 0.5 hours, ARB will accept a
total warranty time of 0.5 hours. This will allow for assessment and administration of the warranty claim.
If multiple components are to be serviced or replaced under the same warranty claim, the full individual
warranty time will not be paid to replace each component. The total warranty time paid will be calculated
as follows:
Individual warranty time

For component being replaced with the
longest individual warranty time.
+
0.5 hours

For each additional component being
replaced with an individual warranty time
greater than 0.5 hours

Individual warranty time

For each additional component being
replaced with an individual warranty time less
than 0.5 hours
