Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0495189A2] In order to assure and determine the guarantee time for defects on an especially electrically operated apparatus (30) the time and/or time region of the start and/or of the end of the guarantee time is indicated, for example on a display (17), in an electronic device (11) which is connected to the apparatus (30) in a manipulation-proof and documentation-proof manner, it being prevented by measures or devices of a technical type, for example by a lead-sealed protection body (40), that this indication is dealt with other than on the authority of the guarantor or his representative, or to their disadvantage. The electronic device (11) can be supplied by a long-term battery (22) which is used as an independent energy source. <IMAGE>
