Warranty Service

If you believe that your product has a defect in materials or workmanship, please contact an Authorised Dealer (see list on our website). The Dealer must obtain a return authorisation number from our customer service department in order for the product to be inspected for warranty. Your product will be refused if either of these items is not included.
If you have send your product to the Dealer you bought it from (internet shop for example) because it is far from where you live, please make sure the product is properly packaged in order not to be damaged during transport. It’s a good idea to insure the item because we will not assume any liability for damage, or loss of freight.
You must pay the cost of shipping the product to us. We will cover the return shipping costs. Once the product is received, we will inspect it to determine if the product is covered under warranty. If the problem is covered by warranty, the product will either be repaired or replaced at our discretion. If it is not covered by warranty, and is not repairable, we will return the product to you as is.
The warranty process takes 3 to 4 business days from the date we receive your product, unless we notify you otherwise. We will ship the product back to you using the same shipping method you used to ship your product to us.
