IKEA GUARANTEE

How long is the IKEA guarantee valid?
This guarantee is valid for five years from the original date of

is required as proof of purchase. If service work is carried out
under guarantee, this will not extend the guarantee period for the
appliance.
Who will execute the service?

service operations or authorized service partner network.
What does this guarantee cover?
The guarantee covers faults of the appliance, which have been
caused by faulty construction or material faults from the date

only. The exceptions are specified under the headline "What is not
covered under this guarantee?" Within the guarantee period, the
costs to remedy the fault e.g. repairs, parts, labour and travel will
be covered, provided that the appliance is accessible for repair
without special expenditure. On these conditions the EU guidelines
(Nr. 99/44/EG) and the respective local regulations are applicable.
Replaced parts become the property of IKEA.

IKEA appointed Service Provider will examine the product and
decide, at its sole discretion, if it is covered under this guarantee. If
