In geval van vervanging verbindt Koper zich reeds nu de vervangen zaak aan Verkoper te retourneren en de eigendom aan Verkoper te verschaffen.
  2. De te dezen genoemde garantie geldt niet wanneer het gebrek is ontstaan als gevolg van onoordeelkundig of oneigenlijk gebruik of wanneer, zonder schriftelijke toestemming van Verkoper, Koper of derden wijzigingen hebben aangebracht dan wel getracht hebben aan te brengen aan de zaak of deze hebben aangewend voor doeleinden waarvoor de zaak niet bestemd is.
  3. Indien de door Verkoper verstrekte garantie een zaak betreft die door een derde werd geproduceerd, dan is de garantie beperkt tot de garantie die door deze producent van de zaak is verstrekt.
  4. Indien voor door de Koper aangegeven retouren die nog in de garantie vallen, een creditnota wordt gemaakt, dient de creditnota van de Verkoper aangehouden te worden bij de betaling. Door de Koper ingediende debetnota’s worden alleen ter informatie beschouwd.
