Preventive Maintenance by the Service Engineer

Regular preventive maintenance needs to be done once a year or after 25000
cycles (whatever comes first). This maintenance can not be done by the user
but has to be done by an Agfa certified field service engineer. Not performing
the regular maintenance by appropriately certified people can have impact on
warranty commitments.
