remedies available to you in accordance with the Luxembourg legal (i) warranty of
conformity described in articles L212-1 to L-212-7 of the Luxembourg Consumer
Code and (ii) warranty against hidden defects in the conditions set out in articles
1641 to 1649 of the Luxembourg Civil Code.
With respect to the warranty of conformity, a professional must deliver a product
which conforms to the contract and is held liable for any lack of conformity which

such installation formed part of the contract or took place under his responsibility.
To invoke the professional's legal warranty of conformity, the consumer must, by
any means, inform the latter of the default in conformity within a delay of two
years as of the delivery of the product.
With respect to the warranty against hidden defects, articles 1641 and following
of the Luxembourg Civil Code state that "a seller is bound by a warranty against
hidden defects in the thing sold that renders it unfit for its intended use, or that so
impairs such use that the buyer would not have bought it, or would only have given
a lesser price for it if he had known of the defects". In accordance with article 1648
of the Luxembourg Civil Code, the buyer must inform the seller of the hidden
defects within a brief delay as of the moment the defect was discovered or should
have been discovered.
