8. Material defects 8.1. Supplementary to Art. VIII of GL, the purchaser’s claims for defects presuppose that it has complied with its statutory obligations to inspect and give notice of defects (Sections 377, 381 of the German Commercial Code – HGB). The Customer must inspect the goods immediately after delivery. Obvious defects must be reported in writing by the Customer immediately, on the 7th day at latest. If a hidden defect only becomes apparent at a later date, the Customer must nevertheless notify us of this in writing immediately after becoming aware of it. 8.2. Supplementary to Art. VIII of GL, there shall be no warranty claims if our operating or assembly instructions are not followed, chang- es or repair work are carried out on our products or parts are replaced or our products are used contrary to the contractually stipulated suitability. The same applies if the purchaser, in a manner that is not transparent to us, joins, mixes or processes our products, contrary to their normal and / or usual suitability, with his products or products of third parties, or uses our products contrary to the state of sci- ence and technology, or in any other manner contrary to their normal and / or usual suitability. 8.3. Technical data on our products in offers, catalogues and other product descriptions has been determined by us in a suitable test environment (we will be happy to provide information on request) and represents the sole basis for agreed quality. Testing for suitability for the purpose intended by the Customer or for the use of the part under specific usage conditions is the responsibility of the Customer; we do not provide any kind of guarantee. 8.4. Subsequent performance does not include the removal of the defective item or its re-installation if we were not originally obliged to install it. 8.5. Deviating from Art. VIII 8 and 9 of GL, we shall bear or reimburse the expenses necessary for the purpose of subsequent perfor- mance, in particular transport, travel, labour and material costs in accordance with the statutory provisions, if a defect actually exists. Otherwise, we may demand compensation from the buyer for the costs (in particular testing and transport costs). No. 8.1 remains unaf- fected. 9. Use of the b@home system The Terms of Use available on our website at www.alre.de apply for the use of the b@home portal and the b@home app including the updates (‘b@home system’), which are made available to the Customer by us. Should the Customer use the b@home system for a com- pany, he accepts the validity of these terms of use in a legally binding manner for this company.
