a. Each Product is inspected by SGX Europe prior to despatch and should be examined by the Purchaser immediately on receipt.
b. The carton or packing crate should be examined for signs of damage and the Carrier’s note endorsed accordingly. If inspection is not possible upon delivery the item should be signed for our purposes as “unexamined”. The Product must then be unpacked without undue delay and, after inspection for damage to its glasswork or internal structure, an electrical test applied. Where a static test is impracticable, a functional test of the Product is recommended.
c. Where damage in transit is suspected, the original packing materials should be retained to return the Product. If the Product has been damaged in transit, and if SGX Europe has arranged the insurance cover on behalf of the Purchaser, the Purchaser should, within 7 days of receipt of the Product, either (a) inform the insurance company which has provided the insurance, or (b) notify SGX Europe, who will file an insurance claim. If insurance has been arranged by
the Purchaser, then the Purchaser should fulfil the formalities to notify the damage following the procedure applied by the insurer.

h. The Purchaser has withdrawn the Product from service immediately after disclosure of the alleged failure.
i. The Product warranty is subject to the laws of Poland.
Unless separate arrangements in a written agreement between SGX Europe and the Purchaser stipulate otherwise, this warranty defines fully the extent of SGX’s liability for the Product and shall be in lieu of any warranty condition or liability, including warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose which are hereby expressly excluded.
The sole obligation of SGX Europe under this warranty is to carry out repairs, replace the Product or reduce the price for the Product as specified herein. In particular, in no event shall SGX Europe be liable for any damage, including lost benefits or indirect damages, howsoever arising.
The warranty shall not exclude, limit or suspend the rights of the Purchaser under the provisions on statutory liability for a sold item.

3.1 The Purchaser is obliged to fill in and attach to the packaging of the returned product, the return form (which can be found online at the following address: www.sgxsensortech.com/contact-us/ – select the linked page and fill in the Product return form). The form must be completed giving all information requested and noting, in particular, any unusual occurrences with the involvement of the Product before or at the time of failure.

An inoperative Product will only be returned to the Purchaser at their expense if SGX Europe finds no grounds for repair, credit or Product replacement. Where SGX Europe replaces the Product, the defective Product shall become the property of
SGX Europe.
Products that have been repaired or replaced under warranty shall be re-warranted to the end of the original period of warranty of the repaired or replaced Products or for three months, whichever is longer.

In certain circumstances extended warranties may be offered within the sales contract. In such cases, contracts may identify specific items or parameters that are excluded, the excluded items shall be listed within the quotation, contract and order confirmation.
