Defective devices will not be collected. At his own expense and risk, the customer must send the defective device to the designated service point or return it to the designated location. The devices must be sent in with all accessories in their original packaging with the sales receipt attached.

The warranty period for new devices is 2 years*. The warranty replacement or repair will not extend the original warranty period. The guarantee does not limit the statutory warranty obligation.

The customer must claim this directly from the service point designated by the manufacturer. The customer acknowledges that the manufacturer's warranty provisions generally only provide for a right to repair or replacement (replacement), unless there are grounds for exclusion. The customer is not entitled to any claims for damages or compensation for expenses.

If a device is repaired or replaced, it will not extend the original warranty period.
