19 Warranty and maintenance
Warranty
Medela AG guarantees the device will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for
a period of 2 years (6 months for the rechargeable battery) from the date of delivery ex works.
Faulty material will be replaced free of charge during this period if not resulting from abuse or
misapplication. This will not apply to parts subject to wear and tear in use. To ensure compliance
with this warranty as well as optimum service from Medela products, we recommend the
exclusive use of Medela accessories with our appliances.
In no event shall Medela AG be liable for claims which exceed the scope of warranty described
including liability for consequential damages, etc. The right to the replacement of faulty parts will
not be recognized by Medela if any work has been carried out on Thopaz by unauthorized per-
sons. This warranty is subject to the appliance being returned to a Medela service centre.
Maintenance / routine check
Each time the device is switched on, a self-test is carried out which checks the internal functions
of Thopaz. A "beep" indicates that Thopaz is switched on. Safe operation is ensured by the
functional check including canister and tubing to be carried out before each use.
No
further maintenance or routine checks are necessary. The safety instructions must be
observed.
Medela recommends subjecting Thopaz to a safety check once a year. The work to be carried
out is listed in Appendix B in these instructions.
20 Disposal
Thopaz comprises metals and plastics and should be disposed of in accordance with the
European directives 2002 / 95 / EC and 2002 / 96 / EC. Additional, local guidelines must also
be observed. The electronic components and the rechargeable battery must be disposed
of separately, in accordance with the local regulations.
Please take care that you dispose of Thopaz and its accessories in accordance with the hospital
disposal guidelines.
