EU Warranty
EU/EEA - Wide Guarantee: Conditions applicable in any country
other than the country of original purchase.
When the purchaser finds the appliance to be defective, he
should promptly contact the proper sales company or national
distributor in the EU/EEA country where this guarantee is
claimed, as indicated in the "Product Service Guide" or the
nearest authorised dealer together with this guarantee and
proof of date of purchase. The purchaser will then be informed
whether:
(i) the sales company or national distributor will handle the
repair service; or
(ii) the sales company or national distributor will arrange for
trans-shipment of the appliance to the EU/EEA country
where the appliance was originally marketed; or
(iii) the purchaser may himself send the appliance to the sales
company or national distributor in the EU/EEA country
where the appliance was originally marketed.
If the appliance is a product model which is normally supplied
by the sales company or national distributor in the country
where it is used by the purchaser, then the appliance, together
with this guarantee card and proof of date of purchase, should
be returned at the purchaser's risk and expense to such sales
company or distributor, which will handle the repair service. In
some countries, the affiliated sales company or national
distributor will designate dealers or certain service centres to
execute the repairs involved.
If the appliance is a product model which is not normally
supplied in the country where used, or if the appliance's
internal or external product characteristics are different from
those of the equivalent model in the country where used, the
sales company or national distributor may be able to have the
guarantee repair service executed by obtaining spare parts
from the country where the appliance was originally marketed,
or it may be necessary to have the guarantee repair service
