conformity of the goods.

specifies that the Customer must notify TSUME SA of the lack of conformity
within two (2) years from the delivery of the goods.
In accordance with Article 212-6
ofthe Consumer Code, in the event of lack ofconformity, the Customer has the
right, in accordance with the conditions set out in this article, to upgrade

repaired, they will be informed that the repair may be refused by TSUME SA
under the conditions provided in Article 212-6 (2) and (3) of the Consumer

guarantee of conformity applies independently of the commercial guarantee
granted, if any, on the Products.
In its constant quest for

Product, in its final version, compared to the prototype. Thus, a minor
difference shall not be deemed to constitute a non-conformity.
13.2- Warranty for hidden defects
The seller is bound by the warranty
for hidden defects in the Product sold that render it unfit for the use for
which it was intended, or that diminish this use so much that the Customer
would not have acquired it, or would have given a lower price for it if they
had known about them. (Article 1641 of the Civil Code).
This guarantee allows a Customer who
can prove the existence of a hidden defect to choose between the reimbursement
of the price of the Product, if it is returned, and the reimbursement of part
of its price, if the Product is not returned.
