Warranty
7.1 Conditions of warranty
We grant a warranty of 24 months from the
date of purchase for the appliance distributed
by us.
Within this period we will either repair or
replace the appliance or accessory (damages
to accessories do not automatically cause a
replacement of the complete appliance) all
defects due to manufacturing or materials at no
cost. Damages due to inappropriate use
(operation on wrong voltage or type of current,
connecting to unsuitable power supplies,
breakage, etc.) are exempt from warranty, as
are normal wear and minor defects that only
negligibly influence the appliance's
serviceability.
Intrusions by unauthorised parties and the use
of spare parts not supplied by Royal Appliance
invalidate the warranty. Consumable parts are
not included in the warranty and must be paid
for!
The warranty is only valid if the date of
purchase has been acknowledged by the
dealer's stamp and signature on the warranty
card or if a copy of the invoice or sales slip is
included with the sent-in appliance. Warranty
work does not extend the warranty period nor
does it constitute a claim for a new warranty!
7.2 In case of a warranty claim
Send us the appliance with its dust container
empty and a short description of the fault in
printed letters. Head your accompanying letter
with the notice "warranty claim". Send it to the
following address, including the warranty card
or a copy of the purchase slip:
