9. GUARANTEE
HELLMUT RUCK GmbH (RUCK) gives a two year guarantee on the
PODOLOG ECO / ONE. Normal wear and tear, in particular to bearings,
plug-connections, suction hoses and clamps, is excluded.
The guarantee runs from the date of purchase when the product was
first bought. The date of purchase has to be confirmed by the sales re-
ceipt. A claim can only be made in combination with the device
logbook. Within the scope of the guarantee, RUCK will repair faulty
equipment free of charge within Germany or, at RUCK's discretion, will
replace it.
A precondition is the carriage-free return of the faulty device, together
with the specified documentation. The local agent is responsible for
claims made outside of Germany. In case of doubt, please check with
RUCK before returning the device.
The guarantee becomes null and void if we find that the problem was
caused by improper or incorrect installation or usage, by non-
observance of the operating instructions, by external intervention or as
a result of a non-authorised repair or modification.
The guarantee is limited to the repair or exchange of the device. Any
further liability, in particular loss of revenue or earnings is excluded. If it
transpires that it is a problem that is not covered by the terms of the
guarantee or that the period of the guarantee has elapsed, any costs for
inspection and repair are to be borne by the customer.
We reserve the right to make changes to and deviations from the tech-
nical design.
