ance with items 1 and 2 completely to

tions of use.
II. Exporting the electronic docu
mentation
When exporting the electronic docu
mentation, the licence holder must
observe the export regulations of the
exporting country and those of the
purchasing country.
III. Guarantee
1. Festo products are being further
developed with regard to hardware
and software. The hardware status
and, where applicable, the software
status of the product can be found on
the type plate of the product. If the
electronic documentation, in whatever
form, is not supplied with the product,
i.e. is not supplied on a data storage
device (diskette, CD ROM, cartridge
disc) as a delivery unit with the rel
evant product, Festo does not guaran
tee that the electronic documentation
corresponds to every hardware and
software status of the product. In this
case, the printed documentation from
Festo accompanying the product is
alone decisive for ensuring that the
hardware and software status of the
product matches that of the electronic
documentation.
2. The information contained in this
electronic documentation can be
amended by Festo without prior notice
and does not commit Festo in any way.
IV. Liability/limitations of liability
1. Festo provides this electronic docu
mentation in order to assist the user in
creating his machine and system do
cumentation. In the case of electronic
documentation which in the form of
portable data storage devices (disk
ettes, CD ROM, cartridge discs) does
not accompany a product, i.e. which
are not supplied together with that
product, Festo does not guarantee
that the electronic documentation
separately available / supplied
matches the product actually used by
the user. The latter applies particu
larly to extracts of the documents for
the user's own documentation.
The guarantee and liability for separ
ately available / supplied portable
data storage devices, i.e. with the ex
ception of the electronic documenta−
tion provided in Internet/Intranet, is
limited exclusively to proper duplica
tion of the software, whereby Festo
guarantees that in each case the rel
evant portable data storage device or
software contains the latest status of
the documentation. In respect of the
electronic documentation in Internet/
Intranet it is not guaranteed that this
has the same version status as the
last printed edition.
2. Furthermore, Festo cannot be held
liable for the lack of economic success
or for damage or claims by third
parties resulting from the use of the
documentation by the user, with the
exception of claims arising from in
fringement of the protection rights of
third parties concerning the use of the
electronic documentation.
3. The limitations of liability as per
paragraphs 1 and 2 do not apply if, in
cases of intent or wanton negligence
or the lack of warranted quality, liabil
ity is absolutely necessary. In such a
case, the liability of Festo is limited to
the damage recognizable by Festo
when the concrete circumstances are
made known.
VI. Safety guidelines/documentation
Guarantee and liability claims in con
formity with the regulations men
tioned above (items III. and IV) can
only be made if the user has observed
the safety guidelines of the documen
tation in conjunction with the use of
the machine and its safety guidelines.
The user himself is responsible for en
suring that the electronic documenta
tion, which is not supplied with the
product, matches the product actually
used by the user.
