SERVICE WARRANTY CHARGE
CALCULATE YOUR CHARGE FOR REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT: Divide the purchase price by the number of years (calculated in months) of the Service Warranty, then multiply by the number of years (calculated in months) since the original purchase date, as per the original invoice.
- This Guarantee and Service Warranty applies to the original purchaser only.
- The original purchase invoice must be presented to validate the purchase date.
- If the purchased product is no longer available Viking will apply the current retail price on an equivalent product to calculate the warranty service fee.
Number of years from original purchase date 3 years = 36 months
Charge for repair (R41.63 x 36 months) = R1 498.68*
* This excludes all to and from transport costs, the inspection fee and 15% VAT.
Number of years from original purchase date 5 years = 60 months
Charge for repair (R 44.42 x 60 months = R2 665.20)*
* This excludes all to and from transport costs, the inspection fee and 15% VAT.
BODY IMPRESSION
Your Viking mattress contains the finest fillings (foams and fibres). You could notice body contour impressions up to 4 cm. This is a perfectly normal occurrence and not a structural defect. It is an indication of the fillings settling and adjusting to your body’s contour and weight.
Rotating and turning your mattress as per Vikings “proper care requirements” will smooth out the impressions. See illustration picture below for difference between body impression and “sagging”.
