With this declaration you certify
that the returned products/spare parts have been
carefully cleaned and are free from any residues.
If the device has been operated together with toxic, caustic, flammable or water-
damaging products, clean the device before return by rinsing or neutralizing. Ensure that
all cavities are free from dangerous substances. Then, double-check the device to ensure
the cleaning is completed.
We will not service a device or spare part unless the declaration of decontamination
confirms proper decontamination of the device or spare part. Shipments without a
declaration of decontamination will be cleaned professionally at your expense before
further proceeding.
