| Terms of Guarantee |
| |
|
|
| 1. |
The Warranty
Card must be filled out correctly and returned to SWING within 14
days after the paraglider has been purchased. |
|
| |
|
|
| 2. |
Every flight,
including duration and flight area, has to be recorded completely
and without exception in an
official flight book. |
|
| |
|
|
| 3. |
The paraglider
is to be used and maintained in accordance with the instructions that
are part of the paraglider manual and other documents.
This includes in particular careful drying, cleaning and storage of
the paraglider. |
|
| |
|
|
| 4. |
All prescripted checks and repairs
are to be carrried out exclusively by SWING or by
technical aviation companies that have been explicitly charged with
such repairing or checking by SWING. Every modification
or repair has to be documented completely and correctly according
the guidelines issued by SWING. |
|
| |
|
|
| 5. |
The paraglider must be unmistakably
identified and checked for compliance with the guarantee card. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
| Warranty |
|
| |
|
|
| Any claim under the warranty which is accepted will be handled
as follows: |
|
| |
|
|
| 1. |
If a warranty claim is accepted for a glider which is
less than 6 months old and which has been used for fewer than 50
hours, it will be replaced by a new glider at no charge. |
|
| 2. |
If a warranty claim is accepted for a glider which is
more than 6 months old or which has had more use, it will be replaced
by a used glider which is either at least equal in value to, or better
than, the original glider. |
|
| 3. |
The customer also has the option of acquiring a new
glider if an appropriate amount is paid to make up the difference
in value.
However Swing reserves the right to exchange the glider for a used glider (see
2 above) as its first option. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
| Extension of the warranty |
|
| |
|
|
| A customer may request
that the warranty be extended if a paraglider is more than three
years old but it is clear that it has been used for fewer than 300
flight hours, and a customer has justified concerns about the ageing
of one or more parts. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| Good faith |
|
| |
|
|
| Swing is under no obligation beyond
those described above. It is possible, however, that it will make
a good faith settlement. |
