What will Empire do to correct the problem?

Customers are required to return the defective product to the place of purchase at their expense for repair. However, in certain circumstances Empire may agree to conduct repairs at the customer premises. Empire will examine the product and decide if it is covered under this warranty. Empire will then, at its choice, either repair the defective product or replace it with the same or a comparable product.

In these cases, Empire will be responsible for the costs of repairs, spare parts, labour and travel for repair staff that Empire incurs, provided that the product is accessible for repair without Empire incurring additional expenditure to gain access. This will not apply in cases where repair work has not been authorised by Empire. Any defective parts removed in the course of repair works will become the property of Empire. If the item is no longer sold by Empire, Empire will provide an appropriate replacement. Empire will decide at its discretion, what will constitute an appropriate replacement.
