3.6 - Warranty procedure
The correct use of the vehicle, associated with regular
maintenance, can do much to prevent breakdowns. If,
however, malfunctions should occur during the
warranty period, the following procedure is
recommended:
• Immediately inform the dealer from whom the
vehicle was purchased, indicating the model and
serial number. The end customer has the
obligation to report any flaw or defect regarding
the vehicle no later than 8 days from its
discovery, under penalty of cancellation of the
warranty;
• Give your dealer as much information as possible.
So he can know the number of hours of service
performed, the type of work you are doing and
the symptoms of the problem.
Remember that normal maintenance operations, such
as brakes/clutch setting up and adjustment, as well as
the supply of materials used for servicing (oil, filters,
fuel and antifreeze) are not covered by warranty.
3.7 - Intervention campaigns
for faulty products
The replacement procedures of parts acknowledged
to be faulty will be agreed upon by
DIECI s.r.l.
and its
distributors/dealers/authorized workshops.
These intervention campaigns can be followed
directly by
DIECI s.r.l.
suppliers, who are responsible
for supplying the components to be replaced
(interventions authorized by
DIECI s.r.l.
).
The above interventions will be preceded by written
communication from
DIECI s.r.l.
to its purchasers.
Only
DIECI s.r.l.
can decide the intervention method
(repair, replacement or modification).

downtime
If there is a risk that the defect may jeopardize safety
