at discretion, require repair or replacement, unless chosen warranty claim is impossible to fulfil, or it would result in a disproportionate additional cost for the Provider compared to the fulfilment of the other warranty claim, taking into account the value of the product in flawless state, the measure of the breach of contract and harm of interest caused to the Customer by fulfilling the warranty claim. if the Provider undertake no repair, neither replacement within a reasonable time to fulfil this obligation, they cannot meet the Consumer’s interests, or if the Customer’s interest in repair or replacement has ceased, then the Customer may, at their discretion, request a proportional reduction of the purchase price, may repair the fault themselves or by someone else at the Provider’s expense or may cancel the contract.

There is no place for a withdrawal due to an insignificant fault.

10.1.6. The Customer may exercise its guarantee rights directly against the Provider. 10.1.7. In the case of a contract with a Customer deemed to be a consumer, the fact is to be presumed that within six months of the performance of the contract the defect recognised by the Customer already existed at the time of delivery unless such presumption is incompatible with the nature of the product or the nature of the defect. In such case, the Provider shall only be exempted from the warranty obligation if they refute this presumption, i.e. they prove that the cause of the defect occurred after the performance date, that is, the delivery of the product to the Customer.
If the Provider can prove that the cause of the fault happened after the date of delivery, they are not obliged to accept the Customer’s warranty claim. However, in case of a consumer contracted Customer, after six months following the delivery, the consumer contracted Customer shall be obliged to prove that the defect detected by them already existed at the date of delivery. Upon completion, the risk of damage is transferred to the Customer, so any defect in the product for any later reason (e.g. misuse, lack of maintenance or objective, unavoidable damaging circumstances, natural wear) is not the responsibility of the Provider. If the product was defective or the Customer was aware of this fact at the conclusion of the contract, or they had to acknowledge or take it into account due to the nature of the product or to the circumstances of the contract, the Provider’s defective performance cannot be established,
10.1.8. Costs related to the fulfilment of the warranty are charged to the Provider. If the event of failure is due to the lack of maintenance obligation on the Customer’s behalf, then the Customer shall bear the costs incurred by completing the warranty obligation, if they had knowledge of the maintenance of the product or if the Provider did fulfil their informational obligation in this respect.
10.1.9. If the Customer enforces their warranty claim for a separate part of the product – with regard to the specified defect -, the warranty claim shall not be deemed valid for other parts of the product.

The consumer contracted Customer is liable for damage resulting from the delay in communication.
10.2.6. According to the Civil Code, the manufacturer and the distributor of the product are considered to be manufacturers. The Customer may only exercise their rights related to product warranty against the manufacturer or the distributor of the movable property.

The manufacturer is not liable if the cause of the defect of the product was due to the date of its placing on the market, i.e. defective placing on the market did not occur. Evidence of the product’s failure at the time of placing the product on the market is borne by the consumer; however, proof of the exemption conditions is borne by the manufacturer.
10.2.8. The manufacturer is exempted from the product liability if he proves that
a) the product was not manufactured or marketed out of business or self-employed activities; or b) the state of scientific and technical knowledge at the time when he put the product into circulation was not such as to enable the defect to be discovered; or c) the defect of the product was caused by the application of a statutory or mandatory regulatory requirement.
