4.4 For items which are intended to be used for a longer period of time, special regulations provide for a warranty period longer than 24 months. A warranty period exceeding 24 months may also cover only a part of the item.

4.5 At the Buyer's request, the Seller is obliged to provide the warranty in writing (warranty certificate). If the nature of the item allows it, it is sufficient to issue a proof of purchase instead of a warranty certificate.

4.6.By a statement in the warranty certificate issued to the Buyer or in the advertisement, the Seller may provide a warranty exceeding the scope of the warranty provided for in this Act. The Seller shall specify the terms and extent of such warranty in the warranty certificate.

4.7.Warranty periods start from the Buyer's acceptance of the item.

However, the Buyer must take into account the above, as the warranty does not cover wear and tear caused by normal use of the item and thus cannot be confused with the durability of the product. The service life of the goods is the susceptibility to wear and tear caused by normal use. If you use (not own) the goods for longer than their normal life, it is likely that the defect is due to normal wear and tear, but it is not excluded that it is actually a warranty defect.

4.8.If a new item is exchanged for a new item, the warranty period will start again from the receipt of the new item.

4.11.The warranty period shall be extended by the period for which the goods have been under claim. Liability rights for defects in the goods for which the warranty period applies shall be extinguished if they have not been asserted within the warranty period.

4.12.Pursuant to § 429, paragraph 2 of Act No. 513/1991 Coll., the Commercial Code, as amended, the Seller declares that in the case of the length of the warranty period in commercial relations between the Seller and the Buyer, who does not act in the capacity of a consumer, the Seller assumes the warranty for the quality of goods and services for a duration of 12 months.

The Buyer must exercise the rights of liability for defects in perishable goods no later than the day following the purchase; otherwise the rights shall be extinguished.

The warranty period for consumer goods (e.g. cosmetics, drugstore products, etc.) is 12 months. However, if the goods have an expiry date on them, the period shall be reduced only until the date marked on the packaging of the goods.

The warranty period begins to run in accordance with Art. IV, point 4.1 of these Complaints Regulations.
