Defects and warranty. The statutory provisions apply to warranty claims. In the case of replacement deliveries or rectification of defects, the warranty period for replaced parts shall start afresh. We do not waive warranty claims by way of accepting or approving submitted drawings. Our obligation to inspect shall only commence in any case when possession of the delivery item is taken at our plant, and proper notification of shipping is presented. As part of its own liability for cases of damage within the meaning of sub-section (1), the Supplier also undertakes to reimburse us for potential expenses in accordance with Sections 683, 670 BGB (German Civil Code) in conjunction with a re-call campaign conducted by us in good time. We shall give the Supplier appropriate prior notice of the content and scope of such a re-call measure - where possible and acceptable - and give the Supplier the opportunity to comment. Following consultation with the Supplier, we shall notify the respective, relevant authority in accordance with the requirements of ProdSiG (German Product Safety Act). The Supplier undertakes to maintain a product liability insurance policy with an amount covered of EUR 10 million for each case of personal/material damage - on a flat-rate basis. This shall not be affected if we are entitled to further-reaching claims for damages.
