DECLARATION OF GUARANTEE TERMS.
Our appliances are produced with the
greatest of care. However, a defect may
still occur.
Our consumer services department will
repair this upon request, either during or
after the guarantee period. The service
life of the appliance will not, however, be
reduced as a result.
This declaration of guarantee terms is
based on European Union Directive
99/44/EC and the provisions of the Civil
Code. The statutory rights that the
consumer has under this legislation are
not affected by this declaration of
guarantee terms.
This declaration does not affect the
vendor's statutory warranty to the end
user. The appliance is guaranteed within
the context of and in adherence with the
following terms:
1. In accordance with provisions laid
down in paragraphs 2 to 15, we will
remedy free of charge any defect that
occurs within 24 months from the
date the appliance is delivered to the
first end user. These guarantee terms
do not apply in the event of use for
professional or equivalent purposes.
2. Performing the guarantee means that
the appliance is returned to the
condition it was in before the defect
occurred. Defective parts are
replaced or repaired. Parts replaced
free of charge become our property.
3. So as to avoid more severe damage,
the defect must be brought to our
attention immediately.
4. Applying the guarantee is subject to
the consumer providing proof of
purchase showing the purchase
and/or delivery date.
5. The guarantee will not apply if
damage caused to delicate parts,
such as glass (vitreous ceramic),
synthetic materials and rubber, is the
result of inappropriate use.
6. The guarantee cannot be called on
for minor faults that do not affect the
value or the overall reliability of the
appliance.
7. The statutory warranty does not
apply when defects are caused by:
- a chemical or electrochemical
reaction caused by water,
- abnormal environmental conditions in
general,
- unsuitable operating conditions,
- contact with harsh substances.
8. The guarantee does not apply to
defects due to transport which have
occurred outside of our responsibility.
Nor will the guarantee cover those
caused by inadequate installation or
assembly, lack of maintenance or
failure to respect the assembly
instructions or directions for use.
9. Defects that result from repairs or
measures carried out by people who
are not qualified or expert or defects
that result from the addition of non-
original accessories or spare parts
are not covered by the guarantee.
10.Appliances that are easy to transport
may be delivered or sent to the
consumer services department.
Home repairs are only anticipated for
bulky appliances or built-in
appliances.
11.If the appliances are built-in, built-
under, fixed or suspended in such a
way that removing and replacing
them in the place where they are
fitted takes more than half an hour,
the costs that result therefrom will be
charged for.
