ALL AEG BRANDED APPLIANCES
This document sets out the terms and
conditions of the product warranties for AEG

keep it with your proof of purchase documents
in a safe place for future reference should you
require service for your Appliance.
1. In this warranty
a) ‘acceptable quality’ as referred to in clause 10
of this warranty has the same meaning referred
to in the ACL;
b) ‘ACL’ means Schedule 2 to the Competition
and Consumer Act 2010;
c) ‘Appliance’ means any AEG product purchased
by you and accompanied by this document;
d) ‘ASC’ means AEG authorised service centres;
e) AEG is the brand controlled by Electrolux
Home Products Pty Ltd of 163 O’Riordan Stre-
et, Mascot NSW 2020, ABN 51 004 762 341 in
respect of Appliances purchased in Australia
and Electrolux (NZ) Limited
(collectively ‘Electrolux’) of 3-5 Niall Burgess
Road, Mount Wellington, in respect of Applian-
ces purchased in New Zealand;
f) ‘major failure’ as referred to in clause 10 of
this warranty has the same meaning referred
to in the ACL and includes a situation when an
Appliance cannot be repaired or it is unecono-
mic for Electrolux, at its discretion, to repair an
Appliance during the Warranty Period;
g) ‘Warranty Period’ means the Appliance is
warranted against manufacturing defects in
Australia and New Zealand for 60 months,
following the date of original purchase of the
Appliance;
h) ‘you’ means the purchaser of the Appliance not
having purchased the Appliance for re-sale, and
‘your’ has a corresponding meaning.
2. This warranty only applies to Appliances pur-
chased and used in Australia or New Zealand in
normal domestic applications and is in addition to
(and does not exclude, restrict, or modify in any
way) any non-excludable statutory warranties in
Australia or New Zealand.
3. During the Warranty Period Electrolux or its ASC
will, at no extra charge if your Appliance is readily
accessible for service, without special equip-
ment and subject to these terms and conditions,
repair or replace any parts which it considers
to be defective. Electrolux or its ASC may use
remanufactured parts to repair your Appliance.
You agree that any replaced Appliances or parts
become the property of Electrolux. This warranty
does not apply to light globes, batteries, fi lters or
similar perishable parts.
4. Parts and Appliances not supplied by Electrolux
are not covered by this warranty.
5. To the extent permitted by law, you will bear the
cost of transportation, travel and delivery of the
Appliance to and from Electrolux or its ASC. If
you reside outside of the service area, you will
bear the cost of:
a) travel of an authorised representative;
b) transportation and delivery of the Appliance to
and from Electrolux or its ASC.
In all instances, unless the Appliance is transpor-
ted by Electrolux or an AEG authorised repre-
sentative, the Appliance is transported at the
owner’s cost and risk while in transit to and from
Electrolux or its ASC.
6. Proof of purchase is required before you can
make a claim under this warranty.
7. You may not make a claim under this warranty
unless the defect claimed is due to faulty or
defective parts or workmanship. Electrolux is not
liable in the following situations (which are not
exhaustive):
a) the Appliance is damaged by:
– accident
– misuse or abuse, including failure to properly
maintain or service
– normal wear and tear
– power surges, electrical storm damage or
incorrect power supply
– incomplete or improper installation
– incorrect, improper or inappropriate operation
– insect or vermin infestation
– failure to comply with any additional in-
structions supplied with the Appliance;
b) the Appliance is modifi ed without authority
from Electrolux in writing;
c) the Appliance’s serial number or warranty seal
has been removed or defaced;
d) the Appliance was serviced or repaired by
anyone other than Electrolux, an authorised
repairer or ASC.
8. This warranty, the contract to which it relates
and the relationship between you and Electrolux
are governed by the law applicable where the
Appliance was purchased. Where the Appliance
was purchased in New Zealand for commercial
purposes the Consumer Guarantee Act does not
apply.
9. To the extent permitted by law and subject to
your non-excludable statutory rights and warran-
ties, AEG excludes all warranties and liabilities
(other than as contained in this document)
including liability for any loss or damage whether
direct or indirect arising from your purchase, use
or non use of the Appliance.
