3.4 They can issue a 5-year guarantee.  Issue the 5-year

The average lifespan of a set is 7,02 years - which is in excess of 5 guarantee
years. 98% of the sets lasted for more than 5,5 years.  reason
Very few sets have lasted less than 5 years. The number of sets of this (2)
brand that will be returnedshould be minimal if a 5-year guarantee is
issued.
