and Conditions (GTC), which form the
basis of the purchase contract and

only be subject to a warranty obliga-
tion if the customer has purchased
the products directly from us. If prod-
ucts are purchased from third parties,
warranty claims may only be asserted
against these third parties, and STORZ
& BICKEL cannot provide any informa-
tion on the content of such claims.

once again, that the warranty extends
only to correcting such initial defects
that exist despite proper handling of
the product in consideration of this In-
structions for Use and further informa-

tear to the products is not considered a
defect under warranty law. If the cus-
tomer has commissioned third parties
with completing maintenance or repair
of the product, or if the customer uses
external products, STORZ & BICKEL's
warranty obligations will only exist if
the customer can prove that the defect
was not caused by use of the external
service or external product.
