warranty
5. The mere authorization to send the product to the service center does not imply
that the defect has been recognized as covered by the warranty with consequent
free repair of the product. The product must be shipped in the original packaging,
or in another suitable packaging, and in any case inserted in a protective packaging
that is suitable for shipment by courier or postal service. Until delivery to the service
center, the goods travel at the sender’s risk. The warranty does not cover any dama-
ge that may have occurred during transport to the service center. The service center
reserves the right to check the validity conditions of the guarantee upon receipt of
the product. For requests for warranty assistance which, following verification by
authorized service personnel, should prove to be unfounded due to the absence
of real defects or due to the absence of defects covered by the guarantee, all costs
incurred for the repair will be charged to the customer, the verification and controls
on defect-free units covered by warranty. The customer will also be charged for all
transportation costs.
6. If parts or components under warranty are replaced, the parts removed and re-
placed will become the property of the service center. In the event that the repair
is not physically possible, or is excessively expensive in relation to the value of the
product, this can be replaced with a product with equivalent or superior technical
characteristics.
7. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage or loss resulting from the
failure to use a product for repair, or for any damage or loss resulting from the mal-
function of the product or some of its parts.
8. The period of validity of the battery warranty (if any) is 6 months from purchase.
9. The period of validity of the guarantee for consumers, that is, those who buy
for purposes unrelated to one’s professional or business activity, it is governed by
Legislative Decree 2 February 2002, n.24. - articles 1519-bis and following of the
Italian Civil Code - (2 years from delivery under legal conditions). For buyers who
purchase with a VAT number for purposes related to their professional activity, the
legal guarantees referred to in articles 1490 and following of the Civil Code will ap-
ply (1 year from delivery under the conditions of the law).
