質問: RIMOWAでは何が保証の対象になりますか?
回答: 5-YEAR GUARANTEE ON YOUR RIMOWA PRODUCT WHEN REGISTERING ONLINE. WORLDWIDE (EXCLUDING UNITED STATES AND CANADA). Your RIMOWA product comes with a 5-year manufacturer’s guarantee when registering online. Please visit www.rimowa.com/myrimowa to activate your 5-year manufacturer’s guarantee. We will be more than pleased to help you registering your product at any of our RIMOWA stores, via www.rimowa.com/myrimowa or via phone. If you do not register online, a 2-year manufacturer’s guarantee applies. Your statutory rights remain unaffected. RIMOWA provides a 5-year manufacturer’s guarantee for products registered online, in accordance with the conditions below for the first purchaser or person receiving the product as a gift, starting with the purchase date (guarantee period). This guarantee only applies if the usability of the product is considerably adversely affected by a material or manufacturing fault already present at the time of hand-over (defect). Our manufacturer’s guarantee does not apply, however, if the usability is restricted by abrasion, improper use, faulty operation, or externally occurring forces (particularly flight or transport damage, e.g. deformation, cracks, body breakages, scratches, wear etc.) or by liquids (please observe in particular the care instructions attached below). We recommend inspecting your product immediately after retrieval from transport handling and immediately reporting any damage to the carrier (e.g. airline or railway company) who is insured against this. Among other things, some product series are characterised by special leather fittings, particularly on the handle and at the corners of the product. Leather is a natural product that can change, discolour or fade, particularly under the influence of skin contact, light and water, but also through the use of unsuitable cleaning agents, post-purchase impregnation and textile dyes. Heat and dehydration can lead to the formation of cracks or tears in the leather. These occurrences are not covered by the guarantee. To claim our guarantee, immediately inform a RIMOWA store, an authorised RIMOWA dealer or an authorised RIMOWA service centre of any defect within the guarantee period and hand over or send the product and the completed certificate of guarantee or original proof of purchase. If you registered your product online, your proof of purchase is no longer needed for guarantee reasons. You can find RIMOWA stores and authorised service centres on our website www.rimowa.com. RIMOWA will then determine whether the defect is covered by the guarantee. If this is the case, RIMOWA will repair or replace the product. For this, RIMOWA will also cover the costs incurred including the shipment. The product may also be replaced with a comparable successor product. Incidental and consequential damage (e.g. financial losses) as well as spare parts or spare products are not included under this guarantee. The guarantee is limited to the value of the product. If RIMOWA does not agree to guarantee a case, claims from this guarantee lapse six months after they have been asserted but not before expiry of the guarantee period. As this guarantee will be governed by the Law of the Federal Republic of Germany, your country-specific warranty rights (e.g. against the seller) may differ in the way they regulate liability for defects, compensation claims etc. This guarantee grants you the rights described above and is issued by RIMOWA GmbH (Richard-Byrd-Strasse 13, 50829 Cologne, Germany).
