repairs and maintenance. Coverage under this warranty requires that only genuine Bendix brand air dryer
cartridges are used and air dryers originally equipped with Bendix
®
PuraGuard
®
oil coalescing filters must
use Bendix air dryers with PuraGuard filters at each maintenance interval.
Note: The replacement of air dryer cartridges is considered normal maintenance and is not covered under the warranty.

are: (a) replacement of the purge valve (all models) using genuine Bendix parts and/or (b) replacement of

terms of this limited warranty. When a claim is allowed, Bendix’ responsibility is limited at Bendix’ sole option, to

for the remaining time period, mileage, or hours of the original warranty.
