Liability is restricted to the supply of replacement parts only during the warranty/guarantee period (usually 12 months), labour and any carriage costs are at the customers expense. Technicians to carry out the work need to be sourced and instructed by the customer and the customer should determine and take responsibilty for ensuring they are suitably qualified to carry out the work required.
