®

.

®

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.

• Repairs occurring after warranty expiration are subject to

shipping costs.

service- en kwaliteitsgarantie

Velleman

heeft ruim 35 jaar ervaring in de

elektronicawereld en verdeelt in meer dan 85

landen. Al onze producten beantwoorden aan strikte

kwaliteitseisen en aan de wettelijke bepalingen geldig in de EU.

Om de kwaliteit te waarborgen, ondergaan onze producten op

regelmatige tijdstippen een extra kwaliteitscontrole, zowel door

onze eigen kwaliteitsafdeling als door externe gespecialiseerde

organisaties. Mocht er ondanks deze voorzorgen toch een

probleem optreden, dan kunt u steeds een beroep doen op onze

waarborg (zie waarborgvoorwaarden).

Algemene waarborgvoorwaarden consumentengoederen

(voor Europese Unie):

• Op alle consumentengoederen geldt een garantieperiode van 24

maanden op productie- en materiaalfouten en dit vanaf de

oorspronkelijke aankoopdatum.

• Indien de klacht gegrond is en een gratis reparatie of vervanging

van een artikel onmogelijk is of indien de kosten hiervoor buiten

verhouding zijn, kan Velleman

®

beslissen het desbetreffende

artikel te vervangen door een gelijkwaardig artikel of de

aankoopsom van het artikel gedeeltelijk of volledig terug te

betalen. In dat geval krijgt u een vervangend product of

terugbetaling ter waarde van 100% van de aankoopsom bij

ontdekking van een gebrek tot één jaar na aankoop en levering,

of een vervangend product tegen 50% van de kostprijs of

terugbetaling van 50% bij ontdekking na één jaar tot 2 jaar.

• Valt niet onder waarborg:

- alle rechtstreekse of onrechtstreekse schade na de levering

veroorzaakt aan het toestel (bv. door oxidatie, schokken, val, stof,

vuil, vocht...), en door het toestel, alsook zijn inhoud (bv. verlies

van data), vergoeding voor eventuele winstderving.

- verbruiksgoederen, onderdelen of hulpstukken die regelmatig

dienen te worden vervangen, zoals bv. batterijen, lampen,

rubberen onderdelen, aandrijfriemen... (onbeperkte lijst).

- defecten ten gevolge van brand, waterschade, bliksem,

ongevallen, natuurrampen, enz.

- defecten veroorzaakt door opzet, nalatigheid of door een

onoordeelkundige behandeling, slecht onderhoud of abnormaal

gebruik of gebruik van het toestel strijdig met de voorschriften

van de fabrikant.

collectief gebruik van het apparaat (bij professioneel gebruik

wordt de garantieperiode herleid tot 6 maand).

van het apparaat.

- alle schade door wijzigingen, reparaties of modificaties

uitgevoerd door derden zonder toestemming van Velleman

®

.

• Toestellen dienen ter reparatie aangeboden te worden bij uw

Velleman

®

-verdeler. Het toestel dient vergezeld te zijn van het

oorspronkelijke aankoopbewijs. Zorg voor een degelijke

verpakking (bij voorkeur de originele verpakking) en voeg een

duidelijke foutomschrijving bij.

• Tip: alvorens het toestel voor reparatie aan te bieden, kijk nog

eens na of er geen voor de hand liggende reden is waarom het

toestel niet naar behoren werkt (zie handleiding). Op deze wijze

kunt u kosten en tijd besparen. Denk eraan dat er ook voor niet-

defecte toestellen een kost voor controle aangerekend kan

worden.

• Bij reparaties buiten de waarborgperiode zullen transportkosten

aangerekend worden.

• Elke commerciële garantie laat deze rechten onverminderd.

Bovenstaande opsomming kan eventueel aangepast

worden naargelang de aard van het product (zie

handleiding van het betreffende product).
