It takes effect upon expiry of the product's original warranty period ("Original Warranty Period") and covers repair or replacement arising from manufacturing defects or electronic/mechanical faults. The Service is performed directly by Our Company or Our authorised service team and is not a third-party insurance product or a resold extended protection plan of a distributor.
1.2 Eligible Products
The Service applies only to FOTILE brand electrical appliances purchased through Our Company's official channels (including the FOTILE Hong Kong Official Website and sales channels authorised by Our Company) and used for household or personal purposes in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. The product must be purchased new and must still be within the Original Warranty Period at the time of purchasing the Service.
1.3 Purchase Deadline
Customers must purchase the Service within 30 days from the date of product purchase. Our Company reserves the right to reject applications made after this deadline.

2. Service Coverage
2.1 Repair and Parts Replacement
During the extended warranty period, if the product develops faults due to manufacturing defects or electronic/mechanical faults under normal use, Our Company will arrange for authorised technicians to inspect and repair the product and replace required original parts. Customers are not required to pay labour or parts costs (except as stated in Clause 3).
2.2 Replacement Service
If, after assessment, Our Company considers the product beyond repair or repair not economically viable, Our Company may replace it with a product of the same or a similar model (which may be a refurbished product). Once a replacement product is provided, the Service shall terminate and the faulty product shall become the property of Our Company.
