The "notice" requirement of RCW
48.92.040(7) is to be applied as follows:
(1) On an application form, the notice must appear on the first page. On a policy, the notice must appear both on the first page and on the declaration page; if the declaration page is the first page, one appearance of the notice suffices.
(2) The notice or a similar disclosure may be repeated elsewhere.
(3) The disclosure and the information in it may not be presented as an advantage or as a technical oddity, nor downplayed by references to the solvency of the insurer or otherwise.
