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 Samsung 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 Samsung 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

A. Samsung Electronics New Zealand Limited of 24 The Warehouse Way, Northcote, Auckland 0627 ("Samsung") warrants that your Samsung consumer product: 

•is of acceptable quality;

•does not have a latent defect.

B. For the purpose of this Warranty, a "Samsung consumer product" is a hardware product which: •was manufactured by or on behalf of Samsung; and

•is used in a normal domestic environment, not a commercial environment; and

•bears a trade mark owned or used by Samsung (generally "SAMSUNG"); and

•was sold by an Authorised Reseller or Distributor of Samsung; and

•was purchased in New Zealand,

but does not include any hardware or software which is packaged or sold with a Samsung consumer product unless that is itself a Samsung consumer product.

Warranty Period

A. The period during which this Warranty is in effect will depend upon the Samsung 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 Samsung consumer product which is the subject of this Warranty is covered by this Warranty is identified in product warranty details.

Warranty Claim

A. If you consider that the Samsung 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.

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

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

•contact 0800 SAMSUNG (726786);

•visit the nearest Samsung Customer Service Plaza; or

•visit 117.p.syniva.es/nz.

[PRODUCT ONLINE REGISTRATION]

You can register your product online at 117.p.syniva.es/nz for customers in New Zealand. While registration is not necessary to make a claim under this Warranty, it may assist Samsung to process any claim which you may make more quickly.

D. When you make any claim under this Warranty it is essential that you provide a copy of your proof of purchase of the Samsung 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.

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

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

(a) 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, Samsung or its agent will either repair the Samsung consumer product or, if authorised by Samsung, pay you for the cost of a repair of the Samsung consumer product, or replace the Samsung 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 Samsung'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; or

(b) If the failure to comply with the warranty is a major failure or a failure of substantial character, you may reject the goods or require Samsung to pay you compensation for any reduction in the value of the goods below the price paid or payable by you for the goods.

The standard Samsung 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 Samsung provides you with either a replacement or refund, you immediately transfer ownership in the original Samsung consumer product or part to Samsung. If Samsung repairs the goods, you immediately transfer ownership in any residual parts to Samsung. Any such resolution by Samsung 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.

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

The notice should identify the name of the previous owner of the Samsung consumer product, place and date of purchase, model, make and serial number of the product. The effective transfer of this Warranty does not otherwise alter the terms of this Warranty in any way.

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 Samsung 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

•is of acceptable quality;

•does not have a latent defect.

B. For the purpose of this Warranty, a "Samsung consumer product" is a hardware product which: •was manufactured by or on behalf of Samsung; and

•is used in a normal domestic environment, not a commercial environment; and

•bears a trade mark owned or used by Samsung (generally "SAMSUNG"); and

•was sold by an Authorised Reseller or Distributor of Samsung; and

•was purchased in New Zealand,

but does not include any hardware or software which is packaged or sold with a Samsung consumer product unless that is itself a Samsung consumer product.

Warranty Period

A. The period during which this Warranty is in effect will depend upon the Samsung 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 Samsung consumer product which is the subject of this Warranty is covered by this Warranty is identified in product warranty details.

Warranty Claim

A. If you consider that the Samsung 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.

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

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

•contact 0800 SAMSUNG (726786);

•visit the nearest Samsung Customer Service Plaza; or

•visit 117.p.syniva.es/nz.

[PRODUCT ONLINE REGISTRATION]

D. When you make any claim under this Warranty it is essential that you provide a copy of your proof of purchase of the Samsung 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.

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

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

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; or

(b) If the failure to comply with the warranty is a major failure or a failure of substantial character, you may reject the goods or require Samsung to pay you compensation for any reduction in the value of the goods below the price paid or payable by you for the goods.

The standard Samsung 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 Samsung provides you with either a replacement or refund, you immediately transfer ownership in the original Samsung consumer product or part to Samsung. If Samsung repairs the goods, you immediately transfer ownership in any residual parts to Samsung. Any such resolution by Samsung 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.

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

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 Samsung 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

A. Samsung Electronics New Zealand Limited of 24 The Warehouse Way, Northcote, Auckland 0627 ("Samsung") warrants that your Samsung consumer product: 

•is of acceptable quality;

•does not have a latent defect.

B. For the purpose of this Warranty, a "Samsung consumer product" is a hardware product which: •was manufactured by or on behalf of Samsung; and

•is used in a normal domestic environment, not a commercial environment; and

•bears a trade mark owned or used by Samsung (generally "SAMSUNG"); and

•was sold by an Authorised Reseller or Distributor of Samsung; and

•was purchased in New Zealand,

but does not include any hardware or software which is packaged or sold with a Samsung consumer product unless that is itself a Samsung consumer product.

Warranty Period

A. The period during which this Warranty is in effect will depend upon the Samsung 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 Samsung consumer product which is the subject of this Warranty is covered by this Warranty is identified in product warranty details.

Warranty Claim

A. If you consider that the Samsung 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.

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

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

•contact 0800 SAMSUNG (726786);

•visit the nearest Samsung Customer Service Plaza; or

•visit 117.p.syniva.es/nz.

[PRODUCT ONLINE REGISTRATION]

You can register your product online at 117.p.syniva.es/nz for customers in New Zealand. While registration is not necessary to make a claim under this Warranty, it may assist Samsung to process any claim which you may make more quickly.

D. When you make any claim under this Warranty it is essential that you provide a copy of your proof of purchase of the Samsung 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.

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

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

(a) 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, Samsung or its agent will either repair the Samsung consumer product or, if authorised by Samsung, pay you for the cost of a repair of the Samsung consumer product, or replace the Samsung 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 Samsung'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; or

(b) If the failure to comply with the warranty is a major failure or a failure of substantial character, you may reject the goods or require Samsung to pay you compensation for any reduction in the value of the goods below the price paid or payable by you for the goods.

The standard Samsung 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 Samsung provides you with either a replacement or refund, you immediately transfer ownership in the original Samsung consumer product or part to Samsung. If Samsung repairs the goods, you immediately transfer ownership in any residual parts to Samsung. Any such resolution by Samsung 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.

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

Warranty Transferability

A. This Warranty is transferable to a subsequent owner of a Samsung consumer product, in the event of the sale of that product, provided that Samsung is informed in writing within a reasonable time of the sale of the subsequent owner's name and contact details, such notice to be provided to Samsung as follows: 

•117.p.syniva.es/nz - for customers in New Zealand.

The notice should identify the name of the previous owner of the Samsung consumer product, place and date of purchase, model, make and serial number of the product. The effective transfer of this Warranty does not otherwise alter the terms of this Warranty in any way.

B. In cases of authorised product or part replacement of the original purchased Samsung product, the replacement Samsung product or part will be covered for the remainder of the original Warranty Period.

Carry-In and On-Site repairs

A. If you wish to make a claim in relation to a Samsung product which you can reasonably transport to the nearest Samsung Customer Service Plaza or to an authorised repair service centre (as directed when you first make the claim under this Warranty), please bring, or send, that Samsung product to the nearest Samsung Customer Service Plaza or authorised service centre for assessment, the cost of which will be borne by Samsung if your claim is determined to be valid pursuant to this Warranty. Such Samsung products do not include those products dealt with in sub-paragraph (B). Whenever possible, the product should be returned in its original carton and packing or alternatively in packing suitable to prevent damage to the product. Samsung will not accept responsibility for damage to the product during this transport caused by unsuitable or inadequate packing.

B. If you make a claim under this Warranty in relation to a Samsung product of the type referred to in sub-paragraph (C), Samsung or its agent will send Authorised Samsung Service Personnel to the place where that Samsung product is located to assess the warranty claim and, if necessary repair, the product on-site, at Samsung's cost.

C. On-site service is available for the following Samsung products; 

•Home Appliance Related Products (refrigerators with a gross capacity of 127 litres or more, washing machines, clothes dryers, dishwashers, cooktops (gas & electric), built-in Hob / Oven, etc.)

•Audio Visual Related Products (both colour televisions and display monitors with a screen size of 41 inches or more, Hospitality televisions with a screen size of 33 inches or greater, commercial large format displays, network monitors, etc.)

In addition, if you believe it is not reasonable for you to bring or send a Samsung product that is not included in the above list to a Samsung Customer Service Plaza or an authorised repair service centre, Samsung 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 Samsung product is located in a place which is greater than 50 kilometres (by road) from the nearest Samsung Customer Service Plaza or authorised repair service outlet, Samsung 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.

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