Guarantee requirements
The purchaser is required to make the guarantee claim in writing, and must enclose original proof of pur-
chase (e.g. invoice, receipt, delivery note) and this guarantee card. He must send the defective goods to us
at his own cost, using the following address:
Gliders
Brunel Drive, Newark, Nottinghamshire, NG242EG
The purchaser should state the material defect or manufacturing fault, or the symptoms of the fault, in as
accurate a manner as possible, so that we can check if our guarantee obligation is applicable.
The goods are transported from the consumer to us and from us to the consumer at the risk of the con-
sumer.
Duration of validity
This declaration only applies to claims made to us during the claim period as stated in this declaration. The
claim period is 24 months from the date of purchase of the product by the consumer from a dealer in the
Federal Republic of Germany (date of purchase). If a defect arises after the end of the claim period, or if the
evidence or documents required according to this declaration in order to make the claim valid are not pre-
sented until after this period, then the consumer forfeits any rights or claims from this declaration.
Limitation by lapse of time
If we do not acknowledge the validity of a claim based on this declaration within the claim period, all claims
based on this declaration are barred by the statute of limitations after six months from the time of implemen-
tation; however, this cannot occur before the end of the claim period.
Applicable law
This declaration, and the claims, rights and obligations arising from it, are based exclusively on the pertinent
German Law, without the norms of international private law, and excluding UN retail law.
Important safety notes
You have acquired a kit which can be assembled into a fully working RC model when fitted out with suitable
accessories. However, we as manufacturers have no control over the way you build and operate your RC
model boat, nor how you install, operate and maintain the associated components, and for this reason we
are obliged to deny all liability for loss, damage or costs which are incurred due to the incompetent or incor-
rect use and operation of our products, or which are connected with such operation in any way. Unless oth-
erwise prescribed by binding law, the obligation of the GRAUPNER company to pay compensation, regard-
less of the legal argument employed, is excluded. This includes personal injury, death, damage to buildings,
damage due to loss of business or turnover, interruption of business or other direct or indirect consequent
damage whose root cause was the operation of the model.
The total liability in all cases and under all circumstances is limited to the amount of money which you actu-
ally paid for this model.
This model boat is built and operated at the sole and express responsibility of the operator. The only
way to avoid injury to persons and damage to property is to handle and operate the model with the
greatest care and consideration at all times.
Before you run the model for the first time please check that your private third-party insurance covers the
operation of model boats of this kind. If in doubt, take out a special insurance policy designed to cover mod-
elling risks.
These safety notes should be kept in a safe place. If you ever dispose of the model, be sure to pass them on
to the new owner.
The following points are important and must be observed at all times:
•
This model is not suitable for young persons under 14 years of age.
•
The projecting parts of the model may be sharp, and the aerials and masts could cause eye injuries.
•
Bear in mind that tools can be dangerous; always be careful when handling them.
•
Never
operate the model when there are persons or animals in the water, as its high speed constitutes a
considerable injury hazard.
•
Never run your model in protected sites, animal or plant sanctuaries or sites of special scientific interest
(SSSIs). Check with your local authority that the stretch of water you wish to use is suitable for model
boats.
•
Never
run the boat in salt water.
•
Never
run the boat in adverse conditions, e.g. rain, storm, strong wind, choppy water or strong currents.
