Return<br />
■ Overview<br />
In addition to the simple delivery of spare parts, with many<br />
products, we also offer you the option of an exchange. This has<br />
the advantage that you not only receive the spare part quickly,<br />
but are able to return the defective device to us for a credit. You<br />
therefore receive our spare part at the lower exchange price.<br />
A credit will be awarded on condition that the repair code indicates<br />
that repurchasing is admissible, a replacement is obtained<br />
from the spare parts store, and that the returned product is<br />
repairable.<br />
The ordering mode and logistics service determine the delivery<br />
of spare parts:<br />

■ Overview<br />
Downtimes cause problems in the plant as well as unnecessary<br />
costs. We can help you to reduce both to a minimum – with<br />
our worldwide repair facilities. The advantage for you: Defects<br />
can be rectified before they cause further harm.<br />
Repair is a favorable option when you have specific reasons<br />
for not replacing the defective device or part with a new one<br />
(delivery as exchange product).<br />
We maintain a global network of Siemens repair shops and<br />
certified partners to ensure that we will always be able to<br />
process your repairs quickly.<br />
We can offer you different types of repair depending on your<br />
requirements:<br />
Repair<br />
Function repair<br />
A function repair is the same as a normal repair but excludes the<br />
repair of cosmetic defects, e.g. scratches, labels, discoloration.<br />
The conditions applicable to function repairs should be observed<br />
in this case. The function repair service is only available<br />
for machine manufacturers or machine operators. Please ask<br />
your regional Siemens contact.<br />
For repairs, we require the following information:<br />
• Reason for return<br />
• If defective: detailed fault report<br />
• Machine number<br />
• Machine/system manufacturer<br />
• End customer<br />

days following receipt of the defective item at our repair shop.<br />

In particularly urgent cases, we offer you the option of a fast<br />

to its weight.<br />
