4.5 GUARANTEE
AUDIOLINE equipment is manufactured and tested in
accordance with the most up to date production
methods. Selected materials and highly developed
technology ensure trouble-free operation and long life. If
your unit should develop a fault within the guarantee
period, however, please contact the shop where you
bought your AUDIOLINE equipment exclusively and
have your purchase receipt available for inspection. The
guarantee period is 24 months from the day of purchase
under the following conditions: within the guarantee
period, all defects due to material or manufacturing
faults will be repaired free of charge. The guarantee is
invalidated if the equipment has been tampered with by
the purchaser or third parties. Any damage caused by
improper handling or operation, by incorrect positioning
or storage, by improper connection or installation or by
excessive force or other external influences is not
covered by the guarantee. In the case of complaint, we
reserve the right to repair or replace defective parts or to
exchange the equipment. Exchanged parts or
exchanged equipment become our property. Claims for
compensation are excluded insofar as they do not relate
to criminal intent or gross negligence on the part of the
manufacturer. All guarantee claims according to these
conditions must be raised exclusively with your dealer.
Rights under the guarantee can no longer be enforced
after the expiry of one year from purchase and delivery
of our products. In the case of unnecessary or
unjustified demands on the customer service
department, we will levy our usual service charges for
materials, time, postage and packing. Any complaints
must be reported as soon as a problem is found. The
guarantee is valid within the German Federal Republic.
