1.3 GUARANTEE

built according to good workmanship, according to the
specifications in this manual and according to European
Community safety regulations.
During production and prior to delivery, all of our genera-
ting sets are tested and inspected.
The well functioning of this generating set is subject to
guarantee. The period and conditions of this guarantee
are laid down in the general conditions of delivery as
registered with the Chamber of Commerce and Industries
in Amsterdam number 33279951 and are available on
request. The guarantee period is two years, limited to
1000 running hours. Some aspects of the warranty
scheme are given here in more detail:
Guarantee period 1000 running hours or 24 months
whichever occurs first. Warrantee does not cover failures
that are caused by misuse or a faulty installation.
Example 1. Faulty installation:
Overheating of the engine is the most common cause of
problems with mobile generating sets. These problems are
caused by poor circulation of the cooling liquid due to wrong
routing of the pipes to the radiators: bents will capture air
bubbles causing “air-lockes” blocking the circulation of the
liquid. Other examples of installation problems are hot air
circulation into the radiators and the radiator fans sucking
exhaust gasses into the radiators.
The generator and other parts should be protected against
the influences of the weather and splashing water (with dirt
and salt) below the vehicle. Refer the installation manual.
Example 2: Misuse:
Long term running with no load or too little load can
cause the exhaust to get choked with soot or carbon.
Cleaning the exhaust is not covered by warrantee.
Example 3: Neglect
Whisper generators have an option for an auto start/stop
mode or interval mode.
Mastervolt cannot be held responsible for damage
caused by the unattended running generator.
Warranty means that faulty parts are repaired or replaced
free of charge. If necessary the whole generator unit will
be exchanged. Labour necessary to complete repairs on
board a vehicle executed by an authorised service
engineer is covered, but is limited to a reasonable
