General Warranty Conditions
Concerning Consumer Products

• All consumer products are subject
to a 24-month warranty on
production flaws and defective
material as from the original date of
purchase.
• Velleman® can decide to replace
an article with an equivalent article,
or to refund the retail value totally
or partially when the complaint is
valid and a free repair or
replacement of the article is
impossible, or if the expenses are
out of proportion.
You will be delivered a replacing
article or a refund at the value of
100% of the purchase price in case
of a flaw occurred in the first year
after the date of purchase and
delivery, or a replacing article at
50% of the purchase price or a
refund at the value of 50% of the
retail value in case of a flaw
occurred in the second year after
the date of purchase and delivery.
• Not covered by warranty:
- all direct or indirect damage
caused after delivery to the article
(e.g. by oxidation, shocks, falls,
dust, dirt, humidity...), and by the
article, as well as its contents (e.g.
data loss), compensation for loss of
profits;
- consumable goods, parts or
accessories that are subject to an
aging process during normal use,
such as batteries (rechargeable,
non-rechargeable, built-in or
replaceable), lamps, rubber parts,
drive belts... (unlimited list);
- flaws resulting from fire, water
damage, lightning, accident, natural
disaster, etc....;
- flaws caused deliberately,
negligently or resulting from
improper handling, negligent
maintenance, abusive use or use
contrary to the manufacturer's
instructions;
- damage caused by a commercial,
professional or collective use of the
article (the warranty validity will be
reduced to six (6) months when the
article is used professionally);
- damage resulting from an
inappropriate packing and shipping
of the article;
- all damage caused by
modification, repair or alteration
performed by a third party without
written permission by Velleman®.
• Articles to be repaired must be
delivered to your Velleman®
dealer, solidly packed (preferably in
the original packaging), and be
completed with the original receipt
of purchase and a clear flaw
description.
• Hint: In order to save on cost and
time, please reread the manual and
check if the flaw is caused by
obvious causes prior to presenting
the article for repair. Note that
returning a non-defective article
can also involve handling costs.
