Guarantee Certificate - Siemens Gigaset C450IP Owner's Manual

Guarantee Certificate

Without prejudice to any claim the user
(customer) may have in relation to the
dealer, the customer shall be granted a
manufacturer's Guarantee under the con-
ditions set out below:
u
In the case of new devices and their
components exhibiting defects result-
ing from manufacturing and/or mate-
rial faults within 24 months of pur-
chase, Siemens shall, at its own option
and free of charge, either replace the
device with another device reflecting
the current state of the art, or repair the
said device. In respect of parts subject
to wear and tear (e.g., batteries, key-
pads, casings), this warranty shall be
valid for six months from the date of
purchase.
u
This Guarantee shall be invalid if the
equipment defect is attributable to
improper treatment and/or failure to
comply with information contained in
the user manuals.
u
This Guarantee shall not extend to serv-
ices performed by the authorised
dealer or the customer themselves
(e.g. installation, configuration, soft-
ware downloads). User manuals and
any software supplied on a separate
data medium shall be excluded from
the Guarantee.
u
The purchase receipt, together with the
date of purchase, shall be required as
evidence for invoking the Guarantee.
Claims under the Guarantee must be
submitted within two months of the
Guarantee default becoming evident.
u
Ownership of devices or components
replaced by and returned to Siemens
shall vest in Siemens.
u
This Guarantee shall apply to new
devices purchased in the European
Union. The Guarantee is issued by Sie-
mens Home and Office Communica-
tion Devices GmbH & Co. KG, Schlaven-
horst 66, D-46395 Bocholt, Germany.
u
Any claims that differ from or extend
beyond these mentioned in this manu-
facturer's warranty shall be excluded,
except from cases expressly specified in
the applicable law. (In no event shall
Siemens be liable for any loss of busi-
ness, profits or data, additional soft-
ware loaded by the customer or other
information. The customer shall also
bear the responsibility for the creation
of backup copies of their files. The lim-
itation of liability shall not apply if and
to the extent liability is mandatory
under the applicable law, e.g. accord-
ing to product liability law or in the
event of intentional misconduct, severe
negligence, personal injury, damage to
parts of the human body or to personal
health, or in case of violations of con-
ventional obligations. However, the
claims for damages related to violation
of conventional obligations shall be
limited to predictable damages, repre-
sentative of such conventions, as long
as there is no intention or severe negli-
gence, personal injury, damage to
parts of the human body or to personal
health, according to the product liabil-
ity law.)
u
The duration of the Guarantee shall not
be extended by services rendered
under the terms of the Guarantee.
u
Insofar as no Guarantee default exists,
Siemens reserves the right to charge
the customer for replacement or repair.
u
The above provisions do not imply a
change in the burden of proof to the
detriment of the customer.
To invoke this Guarantee, please contact
the Siemens telephone service. The rele-
vant number is to be found in the accom-
panying user guide.
