Warranty conditions

Article 16.1 General warranty

1. If guarantees are included in the agreement, the following applies. The seller guarantees that the item sold complies with the agreement, that it will function without defects and that it is suitable for the use that the buyer intends to make of it. This warranty applies for a period of 2 calendar years after receipt of the sold item by the buyer.

2. The guarantee referred to is intended to bring about a distribution of risk between the seller and the buyer such that the consequences of a breach of a guarantee are always fully at the expense and risk of the seller and that the seller can never invoke article 6:75 of the Dutch Civil Code. The provisions of the previous sentence also apply if the infringement was known to the buyer or could have been known by conducting an investigation.

3. The aforementioned warranty does not apply if the defect has arisen as a result of injudicious or improper use or if – without permission – the buyer or third parties have made changes or have tried to make them or have used the purchased item for purposes for which it was not intended. .

4. If the warranty provided by the seller relates to an item produced by a third party, the warranty is limited to the warranty provided by that producer.
5. Water damage found on electronic parts is not covered by the warranty. Escooter Nederland Makes every electric scooter splash-proof and is therefore not liable for any water damage to the supplied electric product.

Article 16.2: Regulations/conditions guarantee.
1. Storage regulation. The product delivered by Escooter Nederland must be stored in a dry place. If this is not possible, you should cover the product in such a way (by means of a rain cover or the like) so that it absorbs little or no water. This prevents any unnecessary electrical faults and/or defects.
2. Storage battery pack. The battery pack should be stored between the temperature min 0 to max 50 degrees Celsius and a dry place.
3. Charging battery. The first two charging procedures of the battery pack should be carried out as follows. Concerns the first charge cycle: From practically empty to fully charged. Concerns the second charging cycle: From practically empty to fully charged. This prevents unnecessary loss of battery capacity. We recommend that you constantly repeat this process for maximum battery capacity.

Article 16.2.A – Standard battery warranty period; Li-ion battery: 1 year.

If batteries, chargers or electronic parts show fall damage, the warranty will lapse.

Normal wear/reduction of battery capacity is not covered by the warranty. Batteries lose capacity over time. Li-ion batteries also lose capacity when they are not used. Batteries that are not used for more than one month can discharge themselves! This is dangerous for your battery. Batteries that are less than 10% charged must be charged immediately otherwise they will be damaged beyond repair and are not covered by the warranty. Escooter Nederland guarantees that the battery will retain at least 70% of its stated capacity within 1 year of purchase, provided that the charging and maintenance requirements of the battery are met.

Conformity and warranty

Escooter Nederland guarantees that the delivered product meets the agreement and the specifications of the offer. Escooter Nederland guarantees that the product has those properties that, in view of all circumstances, including the price, are necessary for normal use, as well as for special use insofar as this has been agreed.

Escooter Nederland does not guarantee the soundness of the product if the consumer does not or not properly comply with the instructions or regulations given by Escooter Nederland.

A scheme offered by Escooter Nederland as a guarantee does not affect the rights and claims that the consumer can assert under the law with regard to an attributable shortcoming in the fulfillment of the obligations of Escooter Nederland.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, Escooter Nederland guarantees for the new goods delivered: 1 year for newly delivered electric vehicles, 2 years on the frame (rust deposits are not covered by warranty), 1 year for the battery pack on Escooter Nederland purchased after May 8, 2016, excluding all wearing parts such as tires, brake pads/discs and bearings. The aforementioned periods commence on the day of delivery, unless the nature of the delivery dictates otherwise or the parties have agreed otherwise.

The warranty claim does not apply to defects caused by: – normal wear and tear; – the consumer does not (adequately) ensure timely and correct maintenance, in accordance with the maintenance instructions; – damage caused by sharp objects, pets and other items that have nothing to do with normal use by people; – repairs or interventions carried out by persons who are not authorized (in writing) to do so.

If an appeal is made to service that does not fall under the warranty conditions as described in the previous paragraphs, the costs thereof will be charged to the consumer at an hourly rate of € 55.00 per hour, plus the material costs and call-out costs of € 49. .00 per ride, with a starting rate of € 15.00.
