We do not need to remind you of the importance of service. After all, we develop our products to a standard so that you
can enjoy them for many years, without any concerns. If, nevertheless, there is a problem, we believe you are entitled to a
solution straight away. Hence our products come with an exchange service, on top of the rights and claims you are entitled to
by law. By exchanging a product or part, we save you time, effort and costs.
2-year full manufacturer’s warranty

return the product to the shop you bought it from or contact the Inventum costumer service department via the form at www.
