Warranty and Repair

HAMEG instruments are subjected to a strict quality control.
Prior to leaving the factory, each instrument is burnt-in for 10
hours. By intermittent operation during this period almost all
defects are detected. Following the burn-in, each instrument is
tested for function and quality, the specifications are checked
in all operating modes; the test gear is calibrated to national
standards.
The warranty standards of the country in which the instrument
was sold, are applicable. Reclamations should be directed to
the dealer.
Only valid in EU countries
In order to speed reclamations customers in EU countries may
also contact HAMEG directly. Also, after the warranty expired,
the HAMEG service will be at your disposal for any repairs.
Return material authorization (RMA):
Prior to returning an instrument to HAMEG ask for a RMA
number either by internet (http://www.hameg.com) or fax. If
you do not have an original shipping carton, you may obtain
one by calling the HAMEG service dept (+49 (0) 6182 800 500)
