Warranty
6.1
Statutory warranty
The statutory warranty, complete and compulsory, stems from application of articles 1641 et. seq. of the
Civil Code.
If the buyer proves that there is a latent defect, the manufacturer must legally make good any foreseeable
consequences.

Contract guarantee

defects.
The guarantee is valid for 5 years from the purchase date indicated by the
seller.
It includes, during this period, free exchange of faulty parts (parts and
labour).
The appliance must be installed in such a way as to allow fast and easy
disassembly and reassembly (inspection panel compulsory).
6.3
The following are not covered by the warranty
- damage caused by something external to the appliance (e.g. broken glass due to mechanical shock),
- damage resulting from forms of energy, use or installations which do not comply w
ith the manufacturer’s
instructions and with legal and regulatory requirements,
- damage entailing the liability of a third party or resulting from a deliberate act or willful misconduct,
- wearing parts (brickwork, vitro-ceramics, vermiculite reflectors and combustion grilles).
