Warranty Information
Dear Customer,
Philips products are designed and manufactured to the highest standards and deliver high-quality performance, ease of use and ease of installation. In case you encounter any difficulties while installing or using your product, we recommend that you first consult the user manual or the information in the support section of this website.
During the warranty period, Philips will arrange for your Philips product to be serviced free-of-charge, in the unlikely event of failure of the product. In case you purchased the product in another country, Philips will endeavor to arrange your product to be serviced in the country where you offer it for service against the warranty terms of the country of purchase. If that is not possible, you may still service your Philips product in the country where you purchased the product.
Warranty terms
The warranty period of your Philips product commences from the date of purchase as stated on your proof-of purchase and continues for a period twenty-four (24) months for all Philips electrical products.
In case you lost your proof-of-purchase, the retailer is unknown, or the product was purchased from an unregistered seller e.g. via on-line auction channels, the warranty period is considered to have started six (6) months after the date of manufacturing indicated on the product or as derived from the serial number of the product. For products without a production date or serial number on the product, a valid proof-of-purchase is required.
Where a repair is not possible or is deemed uneconomical, Philips may, at its sole discretion, agree to replace the product with a new or refurbished product, and the warranty will continue from the date of original purchase.
The Philips warranty applies provided the product has been handled properly for its intended use and in accordance with the operating instructions.
What is excluded?
The warranty does not cover losses that are consequential in nature, including but not limited to loss of data or loss of business, and does not apply if:
• The proof-of-purchase has been altered in any way or made illegible.
• The model number, serial number or production date code on the product has been altered, removed or made illegible.
•Repairs or product modifications have been carried out by unauthorized service, organizations or persons.
• The product is being used for commercial purpose.
• The defect is caused by abuse of the product or by environmental conditions that are not in conformance with the recommended operations of the product as stated in the User Manual of the product.
• The defect is caused by connection to peripherals, additional equipment or accessories other than those recommended by Philips.
• The unit has been damaged, including but not limited to damage by animals, lightning, abnormal voltage, water or fire, natural disaster or transportation.
• The product is defected due to wear of parts, which can be considered as wearable- or consumable parts by their nature.
• The product does not function properly because it was not originally designed, manufactured, approved and/or authorized for the country where you use the product, which might occur in instances where the product has been purchased in another country other than that of its intended use.
• The product does not function properly due to problems with access to and or connection with service providers, such as interruptions in the access networks (e.g. TV cable, satellite or Internet), faults on the subscriber’s or the correspondent’s line, local network fault (cabling, file server, user’s line) and faults in the transmission network (interference, scrambling, faults or poor network quality).
