not affected by the manufacturer's war-
ranty. The present warranty terms also

nance centre (see list of maintenance

excludes any other costs. Repair or re-
placement may be carried out using re-
conditioned components offering

ty, especially repair, modification or re-
placement of parts shall entitle to a three
month warranty unless there are statuto-
ry provisions to the contrary.

changes in regulations and/or modifi-
cation of network parameters,

isfactory radio transmission or caused

numbers have been removed or altered,
and handsets on which labels have been
removed or deteriorated shall be exclud-
ed from the warranty.

of equipment defects, this warranty ex-
cludes any other explicit or implied war-
ranty except the statutory warranty in
force in the user’s country.
