Check warranty status with Apple

Attention: If you have purchased a warranty extension from DQ Solutions (DQ CarePlan) or if it is a warranty case (2nd warranty year via the dealer DQ Solutions), this does not appear in the Apple warranty check. In these cases, contact DQ Solutions and check your purchase receipt for the date of purchase and for how long your DQ CarePlan is still valid.

90 days of extended startup support:

• Apple provides 90 days of free telephone start-up support on all devices (valid from the date of purchase).
• At DQ Solutions, customers also receive free short support in the stores within this period.

The manufacturer's warranty for Apple devices is 1 year starting from the date of purchase. In addition, the 2-year legal warranty obligation of the dealer applies in Switzerland. In the 2nd year after purchase, the device is therefore covered by the warranty obligation through DQ Solutions.

The manufacturer's warranty (1st year) can be claimed directly from Apple and all official Apple Service Partners. For claims under the warranty obligation (2nd year) and for devices that are equipped with a DQ CarePlan, DQ Solutions should always be contacted.
