L217-4 and L217-5 of the French Consumer Code "the seller shall
deliver a product which conforms to the contract and is held liable
for any lack of conformity which exists upon delivery. He is also
held liable for any lack of conformity caused by the packaging or
the assembly instructions, or the installation if he assumed respon-
sibility therefor or had it carried out under his responsibility" and "the
product conforms to the contract:
1. If it is suitable for the purpose usually associated with such a prod-
uct and, if applicable: -if it corresponds to the description given
by the seller and has the features that the seller presented to the
buyer in the form of a sample or model; - if it has the features that
a buyer might reasonably expect to have considering the public
statements made by the seller, the producer or his representative,
including advertising and labeling;
2. Or if it has the features defined by mutual agreement between
the parties or is suitable for any special requirement of the buyer
which was made known to the seller and which the latter agreed
to". In addition, an "action resulting from a lack of conformity
lapses two years after delivery of the product" (article L217-12
of the French Consumer Code).

warranty and consumer protection rights under Sec. 434 ff., 474

This Guarantee is without prejudice to your rights and 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 li-
able for any lack of conformity which exists upon delivery, even
unknown to him. He is also liable for any lack of conformity caused
by the packaging, the assembly instructions or the installation if
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.
