If the operating or maintenance instructions are not followed, if changes are made, if parts are replaced or if consumables not in accordance with the original specifications are used, any warranty is void to the extent that the defect is the result of this. The same applies if the defect is caused by improper use, storage and handling of the devices, or by the intervention of third parties, as well as by opening the devices. Minor deviations from the promised characteristics of the goods do not give rise to warranty claims. Any liability for normal wear and tear (gears, belts, etc.), as well as for consumables (nozzles, thermal break tubes, heating blocks, PTFE protection, key tubes, twist handles) / accessories that have been set aside is excluded. The guarantee rights against Swiss3Dc.com are only for the direct buyer and cannot be transferred. Swiss3Dc.com (Smart3DConcept SA) has the right to repair. Any reduction or modification is excluded. In case of repair, the warranty on the whole product is not extended.

The products must be sent back in their original packaging, with a detailed description of the defects and a return number. Products supplied by us at the customer's request and open software cannot be returned. The replacement of parts, modules or entire devices does not lead to the start of new warranty periods. The warranty is limited exclusively to the repair or replacement of damaged items delivered. When sending the devices to be repaired, the purchaser must ensure that the data contained therein is backed up by copies, as it may be lost during a repair operation.
