been created in an incompatible format or as a result of using unsuitable software.
If it is discovered during the repair that the fault concerned is not covered under
warranty, the warranty provider reserves the right to invoice the customer for the
costs already incurred in the form of a flat-rate handling charge, as well as to charge
the customer for the materials and labour required for the repair after submitting a
cost estimate. You will be informed in advance as the customer about these repair
charges; you are responsible for accepting or rejecting the repair process.
