WARRANTY TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(According to Law decree 23/2003 on the 10th of July, covering Warranties on Consumer Item Sales)
Warranty terms of the manufacturer GASGAS Motos, S.A.
The company GAS GAS MOTOS, S.A. (hereafter referred to as
"GG"), with this present document guarantees the consumer, the
purchaser of a vehicle manufactured by GG, that both the materials
and the manufacturing are free of defects in accordance with the
highest standards of quality. Consequently, GG with this document
guarantees the consumer (hereafter referred to as the "purchaser"),
in accordance with the conditions set out below, the repair, free of
charge, of any defect in materials or that might result from faulty
manufacture that is detected in a new motorcycle within the period
covered by this Warranty and with no limit on the number of kilometres
covered or hours of use.
Warranty Period
The period covered by this Warranty will begin on the day of delivery
of the vehicle to the purchaser by a GG authorised dealer, or in the
case of demonstration models, on the date in which the vehicle is
used for the first time.
The seller will be responsible for any unwarranted faults that become
apparent within the period established in the Law decree 23/2003
on the 10th of July covering Warranties on Consumer Goods Sold
from the time of delivery and in accordance with the Directive
1999/44/EC for other members of the European Community. For
countries outside the European Community, the Warranty Period
will be determined by the existing regulations in those countries.
Nevertheless, should the fault appear during the first six months
after the delivery of the motorcycle, it will be presumed that the said
fault existed at the time of delivery; from the end of the sixth month
onwards, the purchaser must demonstrate that the unwarranted fault
existed at the moment of delivery. During the first six months
subsequent to the delivery of the repaired vehicle, the seller will
be responsible for any unwarranted faults arising out of the
repair.
Any defects detected in the product must be brought to the attention
of a GG authorised dealer within the Warranty Period. If the last day
of this period is a Sunday or an official holiday, the Warranty period
will be extended such that the last day of the period covered will be
the first working day after the Sunday or official holiday.
Those claims under Warranty for defects not brought to the
attention of a GG authorised dealer before the end of the Warranty
Period will be excluded.
Obligation of the purchaser
GG will have the right to reject any claims under Warranty in the
event that:
a) The purchaser has failed to submit the vehicle to any of the
inspections and/or maintenance work required in the Users' Manual,
or has exceeded the date set for such inspections or maintenance
work. Also excluded from guarantee are those faults that appeared
prior to the dates established for an inspection or maintenance work
where the latter was not carried out, or was carried out later than
the date established.
b) An inspection, maintenance or repair has been performed on the
vehicle by third parties not recognised or authorised by GG.
c) Any maintenance or repair has been carried out on the vehicle
that violates the technical requirements, specifications and/or
instructions indicated by the manufacturer.
d) Spare parts whose use has not been authorised by GG have been
used during the course of maintenance work or repairs to the vehicle,
or in the event that the vehicle has been used with fuels, lubricants
or other liquids (including, amongst others, cleaning products) that
have not been expressly mentioned in the specifications set out in
the User's Manual.
e) The vehicle has been altered or modified in any way or fitted
components other than those expressly authorised by GG as
accepted components of the vehicle.
