9. GUARANTEES
Guarantees and limitations of liability
Products are guaranteed for a period of 36 months from the date of purchase, or from
the date of delivery to the customer's home. Depending on the country, this guarantee
consists of 24 to 36 months of validity for the legal compliance guarantee.
For countries that only implement a 24-month legal compliance guarantee, a 12-month
commercial guarantee is applied at the end of the first guarantee, and supplements it.
Guarantee application procedure
For the legal compliance guarantee
Please consult your retailer for information and/or to refer to their GTCs (General
Terms and Conditions of Sale).
For the commercial guarantee
Please go to the reception desk at your place of purchase with your proof of purchase
(e.g. sales receipt), the product and the accessories it came with, and its original
packaging, for all countries other than France. It is important to have the date of
purchase, the model and the serial number or IMEI number to hand (this information is
usually indicated on the product, packaging, or on your proof of purchase). You'll need

supply, adapter, etc.). If your claim is covered by the guarantee, the after-sales service
may, within the limits of local law, either:
•
Repair or replace faulty parts.
•
Exchange the returned product with a product that has, at the least, the same
features and that offers equivalent performances.
•
Refund the product at the price stated on the proof of purchase.
Repaired or replaced products may include new and/or reconditioned hardware and
components.
