facturer shall repair or replace any faulty parts free of charge during
the period covered by the warranty. Any defects, which cannot be
clearly attributed to material or manufacturing defects shall be ex-
amined by one of our Technical Service Centres or at our factory and

not covered by the warranty: accidental damage during transpor-
tation or handling, accidental damage caused by negligence or
unsuitable conduct, damage due to incorrect or improper uses or
installations which do not conform with the warnings included in
the instruction manual, and anyhow due to unusual events which
do not depend on the running or use of the appliance. Appliances
requiring repair must be delivered at the Technical Service Centre
complete with all their original accessories together with proof of

ument proving purchase or if it not possible to read the appliance
