Terms of Use and Disclaimer

KIMTEK makes no representation that the MEDLITE® or FIRELITE® is appropriate or may be legally owned, operated or used in jurisdictions or locations in the United States and/or worldwide.

If you choose to own, operate or use the MEDLITE or FIRELITE in any jurisdiction or in any location in the United States or worldwide, you do so on your own initiative and at your own risk, and you are responsible for complying with applicable state and local laws, including ordinances or other rules or regulations of any governmental entity, regarding the ownership, operation or use of the MEDLITE or FIRELITE.

KIMTEK Corporation is not liable for any direct or indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, special, or similar damages or costs (including, but not limited to personal injury, lost profits or data, loss of goodwill, loss of or damage to property, loss of use, business interruption, and claims of third parties) arising out of your access to, ownership or use of, the MEDLITE or FIRELITE, even if KIMTEK Corporation was advised, knew, or should have known of the possibility of such ownership or use and damages or costs.

In a jurisdiction that does not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for certain damages, the liability of KIMTEK Corporation will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

The ownership and use of any MEDLITE or FIRELITE product and the use in any vehicle the FIRELITE and MEDLITE is being installed in is at the sole discretion of the customer. It is the end users sole responsibility that the vehicle the MEDLITE or FIRELITE is being placed in can safely transport the load/weight of the skid unit including all incidental weight of water, foam, patient, attendant and gear, hose and equipment intended to be transported on said UTV side by side vehicle or truck.

UTV and TRUCK FITMENT: KIMTEK suggests makes and model UTV side by sides on its web pages and sales literature including specification sheets. KIMTEK does not warranty or guarantee that any particular make or model UTV side by side or truck will safely transport the specific FIRELITE or MEDLITE skid in question, only that the UTV or truck meets the dimensional and cargo bed capacity requirements that KIMTEK skid units require to be transported.

With many makes and model UTV side by sides continuously being developed and redesigned, it is the ultimate and sole responsibility of the end user customer to properly inspect and test their specific UTV chassis or truck to insure it will safely handle the weight of the skid unit. KIMTEK does not test each and every UTV side by side or truck transporting the skid units and as such KIMTEK relies on the cargo bed capacity stated by the manufacturer, KIMTEK is not responsible for any issues with the UTV or truck suspension not properly or safely handling the load of the skid unit.

Without limiting the foregoing, if KIMTEK Corporation is found liable to you or to any third party as a result of any claims or other matters arising in connection with the ownership, operation or use of the MEDLITE or FIRELITE, the maximum liability for all such claims will not exceed $100.00 in any calendar year.
