This warranty is valid for a period of two calendar years after the buyer receives the goods sold.
  2. The intended warranty is intended to establish a risk allocation between the seller and the buyer such that the consequences of a breach of a warranty are always entirely for the seller's account and risk, and that the seller can never invoke Article 6:75 of the Dutch Civil Code in connection with a breach of a warranty. The provisions of the previous sentence also apply if the buyer was aware of the breach or could have been aware of it through an investigation.
  3. The stated warranty does not apply if the defect has arisen as a result of improper or inappropriate use or if - without permission - the buyer or third parties have made or attempted to make changes or have used the purchased item for purposes for which it is not intended.
