 GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (FOR USE IN A DOMESTIC, AND NOT IN A COMMERCIAL ENVIRONMENT)

The New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act (1993) as well as other laws in the jurisdiction guarantee certain conditions, warranties and undertakings, and give you other legal rights, in relation to the quality and fitness for purpose of Breo consumer products sold in New Zealand.

 

For products sold in New Zealand, these guarantees cannot be modified nor excluded by any contract, except in those circumstances contemplated by section 43(2) of the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act.

 

You are entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality. You are also entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure of the goods and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. What constitutes a major failure is an objective test of reasonableness and not necessarily an individual consumer’s point of view.

 

Nothing in this Warranty purports to modify or exclude the conditions, warranties and undertakings, and other legal rights, under the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act and other laws. This Warranty gives you additional protection for your Breo consumer product and identifies a preferred approach to resolving warranty claims which will be quickest and simplest for all parties, subject to the exclusions, terms and conditions below.`

 Coverage and Application

  1. Breo of 4/4 Laurenson Drive, Hobsonville ("Breo") warrants that your Breo consumer product: 

 

  • is of acceptable quality;
  • does not have a latent defect.

 

  1. For the purpose of this Warranty, a "Breo consumer product" is a hardware product which:

 

  • was manufactured by or on behalf of Breo; and
  • is used in a normal domestic environment, not a commercial environment; and
  • bears a trade mark owned or used by Breo (generally "Breo, BREO, or Lifesmart"); and
  • was sold by an Authorised Reseller or Distributor of Breo; and
  • was purchased in New Zealand, but does not include any hardware or software which is packaged or sold with a Breo consumer product unless that is itself a Breo consumer product.

Warranty Period

  1. The period during which this Warranty is in effect will depend upon the Breo consumer product to which it relates. In all cases the commencement date for the period is the actual day of purchase, as reflected on the Authorised Reseller's or Distributor's invoice / receipt provided to you. The period during which each Breo consumer product which is the subject of this Warranty is covered by this Warranty is identified in product warranty details.

Warranty Claim

  1. If you consider that the Breo consumer product which you have purchased is not of acceptable quality, has a latent defect, or is otherwise not compliant with the conditions, warranties, undertakings, and legal rights given to you under New Zealand Law (for example, it appears faulty, or does not work at all or properly), you can make a claim under this Warranty.

 

  1. Except where an International Product Warranty has been provided with your Breo consumer product, warranty service will only be provided in the specific country where the Breo consumer product was originally purchased. For example, if you have purchased the Breo product within New Zealand, warranty service will be limited to New Zealand only.

 

  1. If you purchased this product in New Zealand and wish to make a claim under this Warranty, you should:

 

 

  1. When you make any claim under this Warranty it is essential that you provide a copy of your proof of purchase of the Breo consumer product, whether in person, by email or by fax. A claim under this Warranty is not formally made unless and until that proof of purchase is provided. This does not detract from your statutory rights.

 

  1. You will not be able to gain the benefit of this Warranty without making a claim.

 

  1. If, following receipt of a claim under this Warranty, Breo or its agent determine that your claim in respect of a Breo consumer product is valid (having regard to the terms of each product warranty details), and: 

 

  • If the goods can be repaired and the failure to comply with the warranty is not a major failure or a failure of substantial character, Breo or its agent will either repair the Breo consumer product or, if authorised by Breo, pay you for the cost of a repair of the Breo consumer product, or replace the Breo consumer product with the same or similar product or refund you the cost of a replacement, in each case depending upon what is reasonable in the circumstances with regard to Breo’s statutory obligations and at no cost to you.
  • Goods presented for repair may be replaced by refurbished goods of the same type with equal or greater functionality rather than being repaired. Refurbished parts may be used to repair the goods.

 

 The standard Breo warranty periods are set out by product type in each product warranty details, although each claim is assessed on its own merits and you may have statutory rights outside of the Warranty Period. If Breo provides you with either a replacement or refund, you immediately transfer ownership in the original Breo consumer product or part to Breo. If Breo repairs the goods, you immediately transfer ownership in any residual parts to Breo. Any such resolution by Breo of a claim under this Warranty by you does not otherwise detract from any other statutory rights which you might have in the circumstances, including your right to monetary compensation for a valid claim.

 

  1. If, following receipt of a claim under this Warranty, Breo or its agent determine that your claim in respect of a Breo consumer product is invalid, Breo may charge you for any labour, parts or transport costs incurred by Breo or its agent in assessing your claim.

 

Warranty Transferability

  1. This Warranty is not transferable to a new owner or for a product leased or rented, unless approved by Breo and in writing. We reserve the right to not transfer.

Carry-In and On-Site repairs

  1. If you wish to make a claim in relation to a Breo product which you can reasonably transport to the nearest Breo Store to an authorised repair service centre (as directed when you first make the claim under this Warranty), please bring, or send, that Breo product to the nearest Breo Store authorised service centre for assessment, the cost of which will be borne by Breo if your claim is determined to be valid pursuant to this Warranty. Such Breo products do not include those products dealt with in sub-paragraph.

 

  1. Whenever possible, the product should be returned in its original carton and packing or alternatively in packing suitable to prevent damage to the product. Breo will not accept responsibility for damage to the product during this transport caused by unsuitable or inadequate packing.

 

  1. If you make a claim under this Warranty in relation to a Breo product in warranty Breo or its agent will send Authorised Breo Service Personnel to the place where that Breo product is located to assess the warranty claim and, if necessary, repair the product on-site, at Breo’s cost.

 

  1. In Warranties May incur a non-refundable $120 + GST service charge if the service does not fit the manufacturer’s warranty. This charge is applicable for Out Warranties. The minimum service charge is payable irrespective of whether you decline a repair quote.

 

  1. If the customer’s product is not covered under warranty, Breo may offer Repair Services under the customer’s payment. Price Guides are below and are subject to change without notice.

 

 

In addition, if you believe it is not reasonable for you to bring or send a Breo product to a Breo Store or authorised repair service centre, Breo will liaise with you to determine the best way in which to inspect and, if necessary, repair the product the subject of the claim under this Warranty.

 

If this Breo product is located in a place which is greater than 50 kilometres (by road) from the nearest Breo Store or authorised repair service outlet, Breo will liaise with you to determine the best way in which to inspect and, if necessary, repair the product the subject of the claim under this Warranty.

 

With any on-site visit, while Breo will make all efforts to fix the Breo product on-site, there may be instances when the product must be taken back to a Breo Store or to an authorised repair service centre for further testing. In these circumstances, you agree to let any designated Authorised Breo Service Personnel pick up and take the product for further testing, at the cost of Breo.

 New Zealand exclusion

If you purchased the Breo consumer product in New Zealand for the purposes of a business, it is hereby agreed that the provisions of the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 do not apply in accordance with section 43(2) of the Consumer Guarantees Act.
