Warranties
Prior to sending the equipment for repair, it is the customer's responsibility to backup at his expense the customised data stored in the
equipment (phonebook, settings, wallpapers). A list of backup facilities can be provided by SAGEM SA on request. The responsibility of
SAGEM SA cannot be invoked if damage occurs to customer files, programs or data. The information or operating elements and the
contents of files will not be re-installed in any case in the event of loss.
SAGEM SA may decide, at its option, to repair the equipment with new or reconditioned parts, replace the equipment with new equipment
or, in any dispute, equipment in good working condition. During its work SAGEM SA reserves the facility to make, where necessary, any
technical modifications to the equipment where these modifications do not adversely affect its initial purpose.
Faulty parts to be replaced during a repair under warranty will become the property of SAGEM SA.
The equipment repair and standstill time during the warranty period may not lead to an extension of the warranty period as stated in article
1 above, provided no other vital provisions have been agreed.
The application of the warranty is subject to the full payment of the sums due for the equipment when the request for support is made.

current...), to modifications of the equipment made without the written consent of SAGEM SA, to a servicing fault, as described in the
documentation supplied with the equipment, to lack of supervision or care, to poor environmental conditions of the equipment (especially

disturbance, failure or poor quality of the network...).
Change of parameters of the cellular network made after the equipment was sold.
Supply of new software versions.
