1. The Seller shall be liable to the Buyer that the goods are free from defects upon receipt. In particular, the seller is liable to the buyer that at the time the buyer took over the goods:

• the goods have the characteristics agreed between the parties and, in the absence of agreement, have the characteristics described by the seller or the manufacturer or expected by the buyer in view of the nature of the goods and on the basis of the advertising carried out by them,
• the goods are fit for the purpose for which the seller states they are to be used or for which goods of that kind are usually used,
• the goods correspond in quality or workmanship to the agreed sample or specimen if the quality or workmanship was determined by reference to the agreed sample or specimen,
• the goods are in the appropriate quantity, measure or weight and the goods comply with the requirements of the legislation.

2. The seller has obligations arising from defective performance at least to the extent that the manufacturer's obligations arising from defective performance continue. The buyer is otherwise entitled to exercise the right to claim for defects that occur in consumer goods within twenty-four months of receipt.
3. If the period of time for which the goods may be used is indicated on the goods sold, on their packaging, in the instructions accompanying the goods or in advertising in accordance with other legislation, the provisions on the guarantee of quality shall apply. By guaranteeing the quality, the seller undertakes that the goods will be fit for their usual purpose or retain their usual characteristics for a certain period of time. If the buyer has rightly accused the seller of a defect in the goods, the time limit for exercising rights under the defective performance and the warranty period shall not run for the period during which the buyer cannot use the defective goods.
4. The provisions referred to in the preceding paragraph of the terms and conditions shall not apply in the case of goods sold at a lower price to the defect for which the lower price was agreed, to wear and tear caused by normal use of the goods, or in the case of second-hand goods to a defect corresponding to the degree of use or wear and tear which the goods had when taken over by the buyer, or if this results from the nature of the goods. The buyer is not entitled to the right of defective performance if he knew before taking over the goods that they were defective or if the buyer himself caused the defect.
5. In the event of a defect, the buyer may submit a claim to the seller and demand:

• exchange for new goods,
• repair of goods,
• a reasonable discount on the purchase price,
• withdraw from the contract.

6. The buyer has the right to withdraw from the contract:

• if the goods have a material defect,
• if he cannot use the goods properly because of the recurrence of the defect or defects after repair,
• in the event of multiple defects in the goods.

7. A material breach of contract is a breach of contract of which the breaching party already knew or must have known at the time of conclusion of the contract that the other party would not have concluded the contract if it had foreseen the breach.

8. In the case of a defect that constitutes an insubstantial breach of contract (regardless of whether the defect is remediable or irremovable), the buyer is entitled to have the defect remedied or to a reasonable discount on the purchase price.
9. If a repairable defect has occurred repeatedly after repair (usually the third claim for the same defect or the fourth for different defects) or the goods have a greater number of defects (usually at least three defects at the same time), the buyer has the right to claim a discount on the purchase price, to replace the goods or to withdraw from the contract.
10. When making a claim, the Buyer is obliged to inform the Seller of the method of handling the claim according to paragraph 5 of this article of the Terms and Conditions. A change of choice without the consent of the Seller is only possible if the Buyer has requested the repair of a defect that proves to be irremediable. If the buyer does not choose his right from a material breach of contract in time, he has the same rights as in the case of a non-material breach of contract.
11. If repair or replacement of the goods is not possible, the buyer may claim a full refund of the purchase price upon withdrawal from the contract.
12. If the seller proves that the buyer knew of the defect in the goods before acceptance or caused it himself, the seller is not obliged to satisfy the buyer's claim.

13. The buyer cannot claim discounted goods for the reason for which the goods are discounted.
14. The Seller is obliged to accept the claim at any establishment where the claim can be accepted, possibly also at the registered office or place of business. The Seller is obliged to issue the Buyer with a written confirmation of when the Buyer exercised the right, what is the content of the claim and what method of settlement the Buyer requires, as well as confirmation of the date and method of settlement of the claim, including confirmation of the repair and the duration of the repair, or written justification for the rejection of the claim.
15. The Seller or an employee authorised by the Seller shall decide on the complaint immediately or, in complex cases, within three working days. This time limit shall not include the time appropriate to the type of product or service required for a professional assessment of the defect. The complaint, including the removal of the defect, must be settled without delay, within 30 days of the date of the complaint, unless the seller and the buyer agree on a longer period. The expiry of this period in vain shall be considered a material breach of contract and the buyer shall have the right to withdraw from the purchase contract. The moment when the Buyer's expression of will (exercise of the right from defective performance) reaches the Seller shall be considered as the moment when the claim is made.
16. The Seller shall inform the Buyer in writing of the outcome of the claim.
17. The Buyer is not entitled to the right of defective performance if the Buyer knew before taking over the item that the item has a defect or if the Buyer caused the defect himself.
18. In the case of a justified claim, the buyer is entitled to compensation for the costs reasonably incurred in connection with the claim. The buyer may claim this right from the seller within one month after the expiry of the warranty period, otherwise the court may not grant it.
19.. The buyer has the choice of the method of settlement according to paragraph 5 of this article of the terms and conditions of the claim.
20.. The rights and obligations of the contracting parties with regard to rights arising from defective performance shall be governed by Sections § 1914 to 1925, §  2099 to 2117 and 2161 to 2174 of the Civil Code and Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection, as amended.
