1.3 Testing, guarantee and liability
Testing
Before being sent to the customer, the machine must successfully pass testing by the manufacturer.
Guarantee
The manufacturer guarantees the machines put on the market for 12 months from the date of delivery. During the guaran-
tee period the seller undertakes to substitute, free of charge ex works, any parts which may develop a fault due to obvious
manufacturing defects or poor quality materials. Parts substituted remain the property of the manufacturer and must be
returned to its premises, free of all charges. If the substitution of defective machine parts requires work by technical person-
nel, labour costs and any travel and accommodation expenses will be charged to the buyer. Top ups of refrigerant gas are
not covered by the guarantee. The guarantee shall be void if the machine is used in a way that does not conform to what is
indicated in the manufacturer’s “operating and maintenance manual”. The guarantee shall be void if the user, deliberately or
from the manufacturer. The guarantee shall also be void if the electric and water connections used to supply the machine,
(which are the buyer’s responsibility), are made in a way that does not conform to what is indicated in the machine “operating
and maintenance manual”. Interruption of the payment agreed in the sales proposal and accepted by the seller will result
in suspension of the guarantee.
Liability
The manufacturer declines any responsibility and obligation for any incident involving persons and objects resulting from
use of the machine in any way that does not conform to what is indicated in the “operating and maintenance manual” and/
or due to manufacturing defects of the components/materials present in the machine. It shall also be considered expressly
excluded from any other claim for reimbursement for lost earnings attributable to any failure to operate.
