12. THE LOHBERGER WARRANTY
These warranty conditions are valid in all European countries where LOHBERGER appliances are sold by local specialist dealers. War-
ranty claims must always be directed to a local LOHBERGER specialist dealer or the dealer from whom you have bought the appliance.
Duration of the Warranty
In principle, LOHBERGER grants a 3-year full warranty on veri-
fi able material or factory defects on every appliance. Warranty
expires in any case after fi ve years following the manufacture
of the appliance. Certain restrictions apply to some models and
parts: for appliances with central heating insert the warranty
depends either on the expert installation of a return elevation
or the installation of a valve cabinet (AME.4).
Exceptions
Exceptions are only parts subject to wear such as fi reclay, which
is normal for an appliance used for heating.
Possibly occurring changes in colour or expansion cracks in the
fi reclay are dependent on the material and can never be com-
pletely ruled out. However, they do not impair the functioning
of the appliance as long as the fi reclay remains in the fi rebox.
Glass panes (breakage of glass because of external hazard,
changes on the surface due to thermal infl uences such as sinte-
red fl y-ash or soot at the surface of the viewing window)
Discolouring of paint due to overload or thermal strain
Seals (e.g. hardening or breakage due to thermal or mechanical
strain)
Surface coatings (frequent cleaning or cleaning with abrasive
cleaning agents)
Castings which are subject to high thermal stress such as the
JETFIRE fl ame bundling plate and grate
Start of warranty
The start of warranty is the time the appliance is handed over.
Please keep this user manual as well as the warranty card with
the invoice in a safe place at all times. A prerequisite of our
warranty obligation is that the appliance has been installed and
connected according to our instructions and the applicable EN/
DIN /Austrian standards and has been operated and expertly
maintained according to our instructions.
Repairs
We will carefully check your appliance and establish whether
the warranty claim is justifi ed. If yes, we will decide in which
way the defect should be repaired. In the event of a repair we
ensure expert performance on location or in our works. This
does not affect the start of warranty determined by the han-
dover; if it is necessary to replace the appliance, the warranty
period starts anew. If you send in your appliance for repair
please enclose your warranty certifi cate and proof of purchase.

Costs
LOHBERGER accepts all costs for the duration of the warranty.
Should we decide that your appliance is best repaired in our
works, you will be responsible for the transport costs and the
transport.

Liability exclusion

We cannot accept any liability for the loss or the damage of
an appliance through theft, fi re, vandalism or similar causes.
Indirect or direct damages caused by a supplied appliance or re-
sulting upon the delivery of an appliance are excluded from the
liability unless the delivery was performed by LOHBERGER or by
a transport company commissioned by LOHBERGER. We cannot
accept any liability for damages caused by chemical or electro-
chemical effects (e.g. pollutants in the combustion air, condition
of heating water not VDI-compliant – e.g.: "lime deposit", etc.)
or as a result of installation not corresponding to the rules of
engineering or the LOHBERGER documentation.
We will accept liability for visible paint and enamel damages
due to manufacturing defects only if such defects are brought
to our attention in writing within 14 days following the handover
of the appliance.
Changes to or intervention in the appliance through persons not
authorised by us to do so will invalidate our warranty obligation.
Setting up and conversion work are subject to billing.
