14. Guarantee
14.1.
Terms and Conditions for United Kingdom & Ireland only
In order to apply the guarantee, you should contact the Sagem Helpdesk or the retailer where
you purchased the equipment. Proof of purchase will be required in either case.
Please make sure that you use your equipment only for the purpose for which it was designed
and under normal usage conditions.
Sagem Communications do not accept any liability for the equipment if used outside the frame
of its original designed purpose or any consequence that may arise from this usage.
Should any malfunction arise, the Sagem Helpdesk or your retailer will advise you how to
proceed.
A) General Guarantee conditions
SAGEM undertakes to remedy by repair or exchange at its own convenience, free of charge for
labour and replacement parts, any defects in the equipment during the guarantee period of 12
(twelve) months or 3 (three) months for accessories, from the date of original invoice of the
Equipment, where those defects are a result of faulty workmanship.
Unless the customer has concluded with SAGEM a maintenance contract in respect of the
equipment which specifically provides for repairs to be carried out at the customer's premises,
the repairs will not be carried out on the equipment at the customer premises.
The customer must however return the defective equipment at his/her own expense, to the
address supplied by the Sagem Helpdesk or by the retailer.
In the case that a product needs to be sent in for a repair, it must always be accompanied by a
proof of purchase (which is not altered, written on or in any way made illegible) showing that the
product is still under guarantee. In the case that no proof of purchase is enclosed, the SAGEM
repair centre will use the production date as its reference for establishing the guarantee status
of the product.
Apart from all legal obligatory rules, Sagem Communications, do not give any Guarantee, either
implicit or explicit which is not set force in the present section, and can not be held responsible
for any direct or indirect, material or immaterial damage, either in or out of the frame of the
present guarantee.
If any provision of this guarantee shall be held to be in whole or in part invalid or illegal due to
an obligatory rule applicable to consumers pursuant to their national legislation, such invalidity
or illegality shall not impair or affect the remaining provisions or parts of this guarantee.
This guarantee does not affect the Customer statutory rights.

Damage, defects, breakdown or malfunction due to one or more of the following:
o Failure to properly follow the installation process and instructions for use
o An external cause to the equipment (including but not limited to: lightening, fire, shock,
vandalism, inappropriate conditions of electrical network or water damage of any nature)
o Modifications made without the written approval of SAGEM
o Unsuitable operating conditions, particularly of temperature and humidity
