- The right to the delivery of new Goods or the replacement of a part applies to the Consumer even in the case of a removable defect if the Consumer cannot use the Goods properly due to the recurrence of the defect after repair or due to a larger number of defects. In such a case, the Consumer has the right to withdraw from the Purchase Contract.

- If a warranty is provided on the Goods, the Consumer is entitled to exercise liability for defective performance within the warranty period.

The warranty card must contain the Operator's name and surname, business name, ID number, and registered office.
- If the Consumer exercises their right to repair defects in the Goods, where for the purpose of warranty repairs a business different from the Operator is designated, whose registered office or place of business is in the same location as the Operator or in a location closer to the Consumer, the Consumer will exercise the right to warranty repair with this business.
- Complaints about Goods, including the removal of defects in the Goods, must be handled without undue delay, no later than 30 days from the date the complaint was filed unless the Operator and the Consumer agree on a longer period. After the expiry of this period, the Consumer has the same rights as in the case of a material breach of the Contract.
- The complaint period is suspended if the Operator has not received all the necessary documents for handling the complaint until such documents are provided.
- The Operator or its designated entity will, after properly resolving the complaint, invite the Consumer to collect the repaired Goods.
