WARRANTY | ENVIRONMENT AND RECYCLING Warranty The warranty conditions of our German companies do not apply to appliances acquired outside of Germany. In countries where our subsidiaries sell our products, it is increasingly the case that warranties can only be issued by those subsidiaries. Such warranties are only granted if the subsidiary has issued its own terms of warranty.
