Guarantee restrictions
- Philips Consumer Lifestyle warrants its products
for a period of two years after the date of
purchase. If any defect due to faulty materials
and workmanship occurs within this two-year
warranty period, Philips Consumer Lifestyle will
repair or replace the product at its expense.
- Philips Consumer Lifestyle will only pay for
repair or replacement if convincing proof is
provided, for instance by means of a receipt,
that the day on which service is claimed is
within the guarantee period. Parts that are
subject to wear (such as cutting units and
shaving heads) are not covered by the terms of
the international guarantee.
- The guarantee is not valid if a defect is due to
damage caused by incorrect use, poor
maintenance (e.g. parts blocked by scale) or if
alterations or repairs have been carried out by
persons not authorized by Philips Consumer
Lifestyle.
- For the appliance to be used correctly, the user
should strictly adhere to all instructions
included in the user manual and should abstain
