For an assessment, provide the brand, code, serial number if available, a description of the fault, relevant images and the urgency. Before shipping a component, agree with the repairs office on the destination, shipping method, work required and any costs.
The offer clarifies the scope of diagnostics, repair and testing, any flat-rate price and its conditions, the timescales and how components that cannot be repaired, or cannot be repaired cost-effectively, are handled. Diagnostic, return or transport costs payable even if no repair is carried out must be communicated and accepted in advance. Any changes to the work or the price are submitted to the customer before proceeding.
Sending a component does not automatically authorise a trade-in, the transfer of its ownership or its disposal. These operations require a specific agreement. Configurations, programs or data on the device, and any need for backup or retention, must be reported and agreed before the work, according to the respective responsibilities.
The SOS panel and the other support channels let you report machine downtime. An urgent report does not in itself constitute a repair order. Timescales, availability and service levels are those expressly offered and agreed for the service requested.
