WARRANTY
This equipment is covered by a 2 years warranty
starting from the purchase date, which has to be
proven by means of the stamp or signature of the
dealer and by the fiscal payment receipt that shall be
kept enclosed to this document. This warranty period
complies with the laws in force and applies only in
case the consumer is an individual. Laica products
are designed for domestic use only; therefore, their
use for commercial purposes is forbidden. The
warranty covers only production defects and does not
apply, if the damage is caused by accidental events,
misuse, negligence or improper use of the product.
Use the supplied accessories only; the use of other
accessories invalidate the warranty cover. Do not open
the equipment for any reason whatsoever; the opening
or the tampering of the equipment, definitely invalidate
the warranty. Warranty does not apply to parts subject
to tear and wear along the use, as well as to batteries,
when they are included. Warranty decays after 2 years
from the purchase date. In this case, technical service
interventions will be carried out against payment.
Information on technical service interventions, under
warranty terms or against payment, may be requested
by writing at [email protected]. Repair or replacement
of products covered by the warranty terms are free of
charge. In case of faults, refer to the dealer; DO NOT
send anything directly to LAICA.
All interventions covered by warranty (including product
replacement or the replacement of any of its parts) shall
not be meant to extend the duration of the original
warranty period of the replaced product.
The manufacturer cannot be made liable for any
damages that may be caused, directly or indirectly, to
people, things and pets resulting from the inobservance
of the provisions contained in the suitable user manual,
especially with reference to the instructions related to
installation, use and maintenance of the equipment.
Being constantly involved in improving its own
products, Laica reserves the right to modify its product,
totally or partially, with reference to any production
need, without that this involves any responsibility
whatsoever by Laica or its dealers.
