1. 5. Warranty
HAMEG
warrants to its customers that the products it manufactures and
sells will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period
of two years. This warranty shall not apply to any defect, failure or damage
caused by improper use or inadequate maintenance and care.
HAMEG
shall not be obliged to provide service under this warranty to repair damage
resulting from attempts by personnel other than
HAMEG
representatives
to install, repair, service, or modify these products.
In order to obtain service under this warranty, customers have to contact
and notify their distributor.
Each instrument is subjected to a quality test with ten-hour burn-in before
leaving the factory. Practically all early failures are detected by this method.
In the case of shipments by post, rail, or carrier it is recommended to
preserve the original packing carefully. Transport damages and damage
due to gross negligence is not covered by warranty.
In the case of a complaint, a label should be attached to the housing of the
instrument that describes briefly the faults observed. If at the same time
the name and telephone number (dialing code and telephone or direct
number or department designation) is stated for possible queries, this helps
towards speeding up the processing of warranty claims.
1. 6. Maintenance
Various important properties of the instrument should be checked carefully
in certain intervals to ensure that all signals and measurement results are
displayed with the accuracy on which the technical data are based.
The exterior of the instrument should be cleaned regularly with a dusting
brush. Dirt that is difficult to remove on the casing and handle, the plastic
and alloy parts, can be removed with a moistened cloth (99% water +1%
mild detergent). Spirit or washing benzene (petroleum ether) can be used
to remove greasy dirt.
The screen may be cleaned with water or washing benzene (but not with
spirit (alcohol) or solvents), it must then be wiped with a dry clean lint-free
cloth. Under no circumstances may the cleaning fluid get into the
instrument. The use of other cleaning agents can attack the plastic and
paint surfaces.
