During use, the leather and Alcantara - and Suedia
and materials may show minor changes (e.g. folds
or discolouration). This does not constitute a mate-
rial defect.
Some clothing fabrics, e.g. dark denim, sometimes
do not have sufficient colour fastness. As a result,
discolouration that is clearly visible on the seat up-

Sharp-edged zippers, rivets, clamps and similar
garments can damage the upholstery in the vehi-
cle. Such damages cannot be subsequently recog-
nised as a justified complaint.

after installation or delivery in accordance with the
materials defect liability, unless agreed otherwise in
the purchase agreement or any other agreements.
