16. Information concerning product liability
16.1 Intended use
Any use of this product that is not in accordance with its correct use, or any adaptation of or modification to the product and its
associated components for which the express consent of SIEGENIA has not been obtained, is strictly prohibited. SIEGENIA
accepts no liability whatsoever for any material losses or injury to people caused by failure to comply with this stipulation.
16.2 Product liability
Our products are guaranteed – subject to correct installation and proper use – for a period of one year from the date of receipt
by a company (according to our general terms and conditions) or as otherwise agreed, and for a period of two years for end
consumers, in accordance with statutory provisions. As part of our ongoing improvements, we reserve the right to replace
individual components or entire products. Consequential losses resulting from defects are excluded from the warranty within the
limits of the law. The warranty shall become void if modifications that are not authorised by us or have not been described in this
documentation are performed on the product and/or individual components, or if the product and/or individual components
is/are dismantled or (partly) dismantled, and the defect is due to the changes made.
16.3 Disclaimer of liability
The product and its components are subject to stringent quality controls. As a result, they function reliably and safely when
used correctly.
Our liability for consequential losses and/or claims for damages is excluded, except in the case of wilful misconduct or gross
negligence, or where we are responsible for injury to life, physical injury or damage to health. Strict liability under the
German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) remains unaffected. Liability for the culpable violation of significant
contractual obligations also remains unaffected; liability in this case is limited to losses that are specific to the contract and
that could have been foreseen. The above regulations do not imply a change in the burden of proof to the detriment of the
consumer.
16.4 Environmental protection
Although our products do not fall within the scope of the German Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act, SIEGENIA will
continue to meet the requirements of this Act and will endeavour to completely eliminate the use of substances that are
hazardous to the environment as soon as this becomes technically feasible.
Electrical products should not be disposed of as household waste.
