warrants to the Customer or user of the Product that the Product is sound and fit for
the purpose for which the Product is intended to be used – as set forth in the user’s
manual of the Product. Scout Mobility BV furthermore warrants the quality of the
material used to manufacture the Product as well as the quality of the manufacturing
process.
2. Scout Mobility BV shall replace parts of the Product which are defective due to faulty
materials or manufacturing defects on free of cost basis, provided that such defects
arise within one (1) year after the date of delivery of the Product to the Customer.
Consequently, the following shall be excluded from the scope of free replacement as
meant in the preceding sentence:
a) replacement of parts of the Product required on account of defects arisen more
than one (1) year after the date of delivery of the Product to the Customer;
b) replacement of parts of the Product required on account of defects resulting due to
improper or careless use of the Product or resulting due to using the Product for a
purpose other than the intended purpose; if a Dealer is a Customer, this Customer
shall save Scout Mobility BV harmless from and against any claims by Users or
other third parties for defects resulting due to improper or careless use of the
Product;

result of normal wear and tear;
d) without prejudice to the provisions of article 2, the warranty with respect to the
battery of the electric wheelchair only covers instances of malfunctioning or non-
functioning which are evidently the direct result of material defects or
manufacturing defects. The warranty as set out in these provisions does not cover
a battery which is malfunctioning or non-functioning due to normal wear and tear
or due to improper or incompetent use of the Product or the battery forming part of
the Product, including the improper charging of the battery and the failure to
perform timely and proper maintenance; the Customer shall save Scout Mobility
BV harmless from and against any claims by Users or other third parties for
defects resulting due to improper or careless use of the Product or the battery
forming part thereof. This includes damage resulting due to the leakage of battery
acid when performing maintenance to (wet) batteries.

the Product or using the Product for purposes other than its intended purpose;

used by Scout Mobility BV and/or parts of the Product have been replaced
without authorization by Scout Mobility BV
4. The warranties as set forth in articles 1 up to and including article 3 above shall
become null and void if the Product is reused by a new User within the warranty period
and that reuse necessitated modifications, of whatever kind, to the Product, which
modifications were not authorized or performed by and/or on the instructions of Scout
Mobility BV
5. The above warranty shall also become null and void if through the agency of the
Customer, in instances other than those mentioned in article 4, our Products have
been altered in such way as to cause our Products to malfunction.
6. In the event of damage or other calamities the User or the Customer must contact
Scout Mobility BV as soon as possible and provide the most extensive information
