Please read and follow these instructions for use and keep them for future reference.
General conditions of Warranty
Instead of the statutory warranty time period of 2 years, HEINE will grant a guarantee of 5 years from the date
of the consignment of the goods ex works, concerning its equipment (excluding disposables, e.g. bulbs, single-
use articles, and rechargeable batteries). Date of consignment means that HEINE hands the goods over to the
transport carrier, freight forwarder or any other person designated by the Customer for the transport of the goods
without loading the collecting vehicle.
The guarantee covers irreproachable workmanship, on condition of the proper use of the equipment and the
observation of the operating instructions. During the warranty- and guarantee time period, errors and deficiencies
arising on the equipment will be rectified free of charge, in so far as such are evidenced by defective materials,
processing and/or constructional errors. Should buyer complain of a material deficiency during the warranty time
period, then the onus of proof is always to be on the orderer, that the product was defective already upon receipt
of the goods. The statutory warranty and the guarantee do not apply to loss or damage caused by wear and
tear, negligent use, the non-employment of original HEINE components and/or spares (in particular bulbs, as
these have been especially developed for HEINE instruments in accordance with the following criterions: colour
temperature, useful service life, safety, optical quality and performance. The statutory warranty and the guarantee
do not apply to interventions by persons not authorised by HEINE or when the operating instructions are not
observed by the customer. Any modification of a HEINE product with parts or additional parts which do not
conform to the original HEINE specification will invalidate the warranty for the correct function of the product
and further invalidate any warranty claims which result from such a change or modification. Further claims, in
particular claims for replacement of loss or damage, which are experienced otherwise than directly on the
HEINE product itself, are hereby excluded.
for U.S. only:
federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a Physician or Practitioner!
