Introduction
3. Irrespective of that stipulated under
2, it applies as far as an electric
Product is concerned that with
regard to the battery that forms part
of the Product warranty is only
given in case of faults or non-
functioning of the battery that are
demonstrably the direct
consequence of material or
manufacturing errors. A fault or
non-functioning of the battery as a
result of normal wear is not
covered by the warranty as meant
in these warranty stipulations.
Similarly not covered by the
warranty are faults or non-
functioning that are the
consequence of improper or
unprofessional use of the Product
or the battery that is part of the
Product, including the incorrect
charging of the battery and the
failure to carry out timely and good
maintenance, in which context it
also applies that if the Customer is
a Dealer, this Dealer will indemnify
Handicare against possible claims
from Users or other third parties
that are based on the above
mentioned improper or
unprofessional use of the Product
or the battery that is part of the
Product.
4. The warranty conditions as
mentioned in above stipulations in
any case become null and void if:
•
The guidelines of Handicare
for the maintenance of the
Product are not, or
insufficiently, followed;
•
A necessary repair or
replacement of parts is based
on neglect, damage or abuse
of the Product or a use of the
Product for another purpose
than the one for which it was
intended;
•
Parts of the Product are
replaced by parts of another
26
origin than those which
Handicare uses and/or parts of
the Product are replaced
without the permission of
Handicare.
1. The warranties as mentioned in
stipulations 1 through 3 also
become null and void if what is
involved is re-used by a new user
within the warranty period and that
such re-use necessitates
adaptations to the product and
those adaptations are carried out
without the instructions and/or at
the order of Handicare.
2. To retain rights under the above
delineated warranties the Customer
must, in case of damage or other
calamities, as rapidly as possible
contact Handicare and inform them
as fully as possible. The possibility
of taking recourse to the above-
mentioned warranty conditions
becomes null and void for the
Customer in any case after 20
workdays after the claim situation
or the calamity arises that was the
reason for the recourse to the
guarantee.
3. The replacement of a part or the
repair or the reconditioning of the
Product within a current warranty
period does not extend the
warranty period.
4. Handicare gives no warranty on
repair to or reconditioning of the
Product carried out other than
under order of and/or at the
instructions of Handicare. If repairs
and/or reconditioning are executed
by or on behalf of a Customer, the
Customer indemnifies Handicare
with respect to the claims of third
parties who result, in the broadest
sense of the word, from such
repairs or reconditioning.
