A few useful tips

What to bear in mind when going for a repair:

  • Describe the defect as accurately as possible and agree expressly (in writing wherever possible) what is to be repaired.
  • If applicable, supply the operating manual.
  • Ask for an estimate of cost.
  • Ask how long the repair should take.

What to bear in mind when hiring:

  • When signing a hire contract, read the small print:
    – Is the item insured?
    – Who is liable in the case of damage?
    – What will it cost of the hire period is exceeded?
  • Make sure that the item is clean and free from defects when you receive it, and that you return it in the same state.
  • Treat the borrowed product as if it where your own, i.e. with care.
