1.7 Limited warranty
Pyrexx Technologies GmbH warrants a de-
fect-free device only for the original purchas-
er of this product that was purchased either
at Pyrexx Technologies GmbH directly, or
through an authorized reseller, for a period of
12 years from the date of purchase, when
used and serviced as intended. Thereby the
limited warranty covers the entire device
for 10 years. For the remaining two years,
the limited warranty shall not extend to the
reserve / power supply to the electronics of
the device, whereas the material / workman
-
ship errors are exempt from this restriction.
The limited warranty is not transferable and does
not apply to buyers who have purchased the
product from a reseller who is not authorized by
Pyrexx Technologies GmbH. This also applies to
online auctions, but is not limited thereto. Rights
arising from legislation remain unaffected by the
limited warranty.
f
Please keep your receipt as a proof
that the device has been purchased
from an authorized reseller, and as a
proof of purchase date.
This receipt is mandatory for any warranty
claims! The limited warranty will be granted
only if the device is used in accordance with
the operating manual. The limited warranty
does not cover claims resulting from accidents,
misuse, application errors, negligence, or the
warranty exclusion criteria described below.
1.8 Warranty exclusion criteria
Soiling
Dust deposits and insect infestation in the
measuring system of the device are not cov-
ered under warranty. Also smoke alarms or
warning signals associated with such forms of
soiling do not indicate a malfunction of the
device, but only show a lack of care, cleaning
and maintenance thereof.
Physical / mechanical damage
If the device has been damaged,
e.g. the housing has been broken or the device
has been opened, any warranty claim shall be
forfeited. The same shall apply to subjecting
the device to any form of brute force, which
does not cause a physical damage to the de-
vice, but causes a damage inside the housing
(e.g. of electronics).
Contamination
I
f the device is externally and / or internally
contaminated by deposits (excessively contam-
inated), any warranty claim shall be forfeited.
Paint and similar substances on the surface of
the device and within the housing / measure
-
ment system of the device shall be deemed
contamination. Decoration / painting limited
to the release testing / stop button (smoke
alarm device cover) shall be excluded from a
warranty exclusion!
In addition, build-up of fire residues
(e.g. soot), as well as nicotine and grease de-
posits, which have caused a readily detectable
discolouration of the device, are categorized
as contamination, which means the loss of any
warranty claims. Especially nicotine and grease
condensates do not only gather on the outer
surface of the device, but also accumulate on
the surfaces of the optical measuring com-
ponents. Particularly there, the adhesion of
condensates leads to premature deterioration
of the optical properties of the measurement
components, which the device can compensate
through autonomous recalibration only within
its physical limits.
Moisture damage / corrosion
If the device, and in particular its elec-
tronics, are damaged by moisture of any
kind, any warranty claim shall be forfeited.
Moisture thus is not only the exposure to
fluid, but also regular, above-average ex-
posure of the device to humidity (> 70%).
Due to the effect of excessive humidity
(e.g., steam / roasting fumes), the battery
of the device is discharged above average,
and the battery life is shortened consid-
erably. Also, liquids and high humidity can
damage the electronics of the device by
causing corrosion.
Thermal damage
If the device has been exposed temporarily
or permanently to a temperature below 0°
C or above 70° C, any warranty claim shall
be forfeited. In particular, no warranty shall be
given for devices that were exposed to high
temperatures and fumes in a fire. Damage
to the device as a result of frost / cold, as
well as heat damage, shall not be covered
by the warranty.
