Liability for defects 5.1 The Customer is required to inspect the delivered Products without undue delay after delivery and to report any defects.
5.2 The delivered Products are deemed to have been approved if ▇▇▇▇, with regard to obvious defects, obvious shortages or other defects which were or would have been identifiable in the course of an immediate, careful inspection, has not received notifi- cation of the defect within 7 days of delivery of the product, or otherwise – in the case of unclear or hidden defects – within 7 days of the discovery of the defect or the time at which the defect was identifiable to the Customer in the course of normal use of the Product without closer inspection.
5.3 In the event of a justified complaint, the Customer will be entitled to two attempts to rectify defects or make a replacement delivery at ▇▇▇▇'▇ discretion free of charge within a reasonable period of time. Shortages will be delivered subsequently. If two attempts to rectify defects or make a replacement delivery within a reasonable period of time are unsuccessful, the Customer will be entitled to the statutory rights, subject to the provisions of clause 7. Subsequent performance will include neither removal of the defective item nor reassembly if ▇▇▇▇ was not originally required to carry out assembly. The expenses required for the purpose of inspection and subsequent performance, in particular transport, travel, labour and material costs (not: removal and assembly costs), insofar as these are not increased because the subject matter of the contract is located at a place other than our Customer's place of performance, will be borne by ▇▇▇▇ if there is actually a defect. Otherwise, ▇▇▇▇ may demand compensation from the Customer for the costs incurred by the unjustified request for rectification of the defect (in particular inspection and transport costs), unless the lack of defectiveness was not identifiable for the Customer. ▇▇▇▇ can refuse to rectify defects or make a replacement delivery if the Customer does not fulfil its payment obligations towards ▇▇▇▇ to an extent that corresponds to the defect-free part of the service provided.
5.4 No warranty will be assumed, in particular, in the following cases: Unsuitable or in- correct use by the Customer or by third parties instructed by the Customer, in particular through the use of insufficiently qualified personnel, faulty assembly or commission- ing, natural wear and tear (wearing parts), faulty or negligent handling, improper maintenance, unsuitable operating materials, defective construction work, unsuitable construction land, chemical, electrochemical or electrical influences, provided ▇▇▇▇ is not responsible for these circumstances.
5.5 ▇▇▇▇ is also not required to provide a warranty insofar as defects of Products are based on defective materials supplied by the Customer or insofar as defects of Products are based on the fact that the Customer has prescribed the execution of the order ac- cording to construction plans of third parties.
5.6 A delivery of used Products agreed with the Customer in the individual case is made to the exclusion of any warranty, unless ▇▇▇▇ has caused the defect intentionally or through gross negligence or has fraudulently concealed the defect.
5.7 The warranty period will be one year from delivery or, where acceptance was stipu- lated, from acceptance. Replaced parts will become our property and must be sent to us at our request. If shipping, assembly or commissioning is delayed through no fault of our own, our liability will expire no later than twelve months after the transfer of risk.
5.8 The right of recovery in accordance with sections 445a, 445b German Civil Code (BGB) is excluded, unless ▇▇▇▇ has caused the defect intentionally or by gross neg- ligence or has fraudulently concealed the defect.

This indemnity shall continue in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement.
