6.3 Liability
Intended use
Any use or application of this product that is not in accordance with its intended purpose, or any adaptation
of or modification to the product and its associated components, for which the express consent of us
has not been obtained, are strictly prohibited. We are not liable for any damages to material or persons if
these directions are not observed.
Product liability
Provided that they are properly installed and correctly handled, our products are subject to warranty for
1 year after receipt of goods by companies (according to our general terms and conditions), or as otherwise
agreed, and for 2 years for end consumers according to statutory law. As part of our ongoing improvements,
we reserve the right to replace individual components or entire products. Consequential losses resulting
from a failing in the unit are excluded from the warranty within the limits of the law. The warranty shall
become void if modifications that are unauthorized by us or have not been described in this documentation
are made to the product and/or individual components, or if the product and/or individual components is/
are dismantled or partly dismantled.
Disclaimer of liability
The product and its components are subject to stringent quality controls. As a result, they function reliably
and safely when used properly. Our liability for consequential losses and/or claims for damages is excluded,
except in the case of wilful misconduct or gross negligence, or where we are responsible for injury to
life, limb or health. Strict liability under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) remains
unaffected. Liability for the culpable violation of significant contractual obligations also remains unaffected;
liability in this case is limited to losses that are specific to the contract and that could have been foreseen.
The above regulations do not imply a change in the burden of proof to the detriment of the consumer.
