Reklamationer over mængdeafvigelser, der er konstateret ved levering, skal fremsættes overfor transportør og noteres på fragtbrevet.
Ved mangelbedømmelsen skal der tages hensyn til, at der er tale om specialproducerede produkter, og at sælger har et vist spillerum i den forbindelse, herunder ift. konstruktion og design.
Såfremt det leverede er behæftet med mangler, kan køber ikke ophæve handlen, uanset om manglen er væsentlig. Sælger kan i så fald, efter eget valg, foretage enten omlevering, afhjælpning eller vælge at kreditere købesummen mod tilbagelevering af de leverede varer.

13. Limitation of Liability

15. Product Liability
The Seller shall only be liable for products in accordance with the Danish Products Liability Act and therefore disclaims liability on any other basis, including any non-statutory product liability as well as product liability for commercial damage.
The Seller’s liability in accordance with the Danish Products Liability Act is limited to the Seller’s insurance coverage. Under no circumstances may the Seller be liable for consequential damages,
including any operating losses, loss of profit or other indirect losses.
