SAFE HANDLING
IMPORTANT NOTICE
For the first year all of our appliances are protected by our manufacturer’s guarantee which covers both parts and
labour.
As you would expect from Sime Ltd, it is our aim to provide our valued customers with the best in after sales and
service.
To take advantage of any extended warranty offered, all you have to do is to adhere to these 3 simple conditions:
• The installation must be carried out to Manufacturers/Benchmark Standards by a Gas Safe Registered
Engineer, and recorded in the installation manual.
• The appliance must be registered with both Sime Ltd and Gas Safe within 30 days of installation.
• The appliance must be serviced annually, by either Sime Ltd or a Gas Safe registered engineer- ensuring that the
Benchmark service record in the installation manual is completed.
Failure to comply with the above will result in only the 12 month warranty being offered.
In the absence of any proof of purchase, the 12 month warranty period will commence from the date of manufacture
of the boiler as shown on the appliance data plate.
