Unless expressly agreed otherwise below, the statutory liability for defects applies.

Restrictions on entrepreneurs In the case of entrepreneurs, only our own information and the manufacturer's product descriptions that were included in the contract are deemed to be an agreement on the quality of the goods; we accept no liability for public statements made by the manufacturer or other advertising statements. For entrepreneurs, the limitation period for claims for defects in newly manufactured items is one year from the transfer of risk.

The statutory limitation periods for the right of recourse under Section 445a of the German Civil Code remain unaffected. Note for merchants The obligation to inspect and give notice of defects as set out in Section 377 of the German Commercial Code applies to merchants.

This does not apply if we have fraudulently concealed a defect.

In the event of a breach of essential contractual obligations, the fulfilment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance the contractual partner can regularly rely (cardinal obligations) due to slight negligence on our part, our legal representatives or vicarious agents, liability is limited to the amount of damage foreseeable at the time the contract was concluded, the occurrence of which must typically be expected. Otherwise, claims for damages are excluded.
