Notice to Consumers
We would like to inform you that when selling used goods to consumers, we may shorten the limitation period regarding warranty rights for defects to one year from the delivery of the goods, provided that we inform you of this specifically and it is expressly and separately agreed upon.

    If and to the extent that restrictions and/or deadlines are expressly and separately agreed upon, these do not apply to claims arising from damages caused by us, our legal representatives, or vicarious agents.

    • in the case of injury to life, body, or health
    • in the case of intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty as well as deceit
    • in the case of a breach of essential contractual obligations, the fulfillment of which enables the proper execution of the contract and on which the contractual partner can regularly rely (cardinal obligations)
    • within the framework of a warranty promise, as agreed, or
    • as far as the scope of the Product Liability Act is opened.

    8.2 Warranties and Customer Service
