Repairs, inspection and warranty
Section 9
39
Inspection by the pilot
Under § 14 para. 5 of the German
Aeronautical Products Investigation Order
(LuftGerPV), pilots in Germany are able to
carry out the inspections themselves or
appoint a third party to do so (e.g.
manufacturer/importer), provided that the
requirements are all fulfilled. However, if this
is done, the liability and warranty of Swing
Flugsportgeräte GmbH will lapse.
The DHV recommends that inspection is
carried out by the manufacturer/importer or
by an inspection agent authorised by it and
approved by the DHV.
Warranty
Swing’s warranty is a comprehensive
service package, which fulfils high
standards for customer service and
customer care. The terms of the warranty
are in the enclosed warranty card. You must
register your paraglider or other Swing
product in order to be able to rely on the
warranty. You are able to complete the
warranty card and post it to Swing or
register quickly and easily online. Go to the
Swing website:

warranty
Complete the registration within 14 days
after purchasing the paraglider. If this is
done online, you will receive a confirmation
email. If you do not have an email address,
enter '[email protected]' in the mandatory field.
Registrations by post or without a personal
email address will be recorded by Swing but
will not receive confirmation. We therefore
recommend that you register online with an
email address.
The manufacturer must be notified
immediately of any defects in the product,
variations or changes in flight behaviour and
any warranty claims. If necessary, the glider
or other Swing product must be sent to
Swing Flugsportgeräte GmbH for inspection.
Swing generally includes all email
addresses provided in warranty cards in its
distribution list. If you only wish to register
for the warranty and do not wish to receive
any further safety and information email
messages, please do not give your email
address on the warranty card.
