LIMITED WARRANTY
How long is the IKEA guarantee valid?
This guarantee is valid for five (5) years from the original date of purchase of Your appliance
at IKEA, unless the appliance is named LAGAN or TILLREDA in which case two (2) years of
guarantee apply. The original sales receipt is required as proof of purchase. If service work is
carried out under guarantee, this will not extend the guarantee period for the appliance.
Who will execute the service?
IKEA "Service Provider" will provide the service through its own service operations or autho-
rized service partner network.
What does this guarantee cover?
The guarantee covers faults of the appliance which have been caused by faulty construction or
material faults from the date of purchase from IKEA. This guarantee applies to domestic use
only. Some exceptions not guaranteed are specified under the headline "What is not covered
under this guarantee?" Within the guarantee period, the costs to remedy the fault (e.g., repairs,
parts, labour and travel) will be covered, provided that the appliance is accessible for repair
without special expenditure. On these conditions the local regulations are applicable. Replaced
parts become the property of IKEA.
What will IKEA do to correct the problem?
IKEA appointed Service Provider will examine the product and decide, at its sole discretion,
if it is covered under this guarantee. If considered covered, IKEA Service Provider or its au-
thorized service partner through its own service operations, will then, at its sole discretion,
either repair the defective product or replace it with the same or a comparable product.
