2.2. In the event that your goods are replaced or repaired, a new warranty period does not apply to the new goods or replaced components and spare parts. However, in such a case, the warranty period is extended by the period during which you were unable to use the goods due to the defect, i.e. in particular by the period during which the goods are being repaired.

- c) Replacement of goods or defective parts of goods
You may always request the replacement of goods or defective parts of goods, unless this is disproportionate to the nature of the defect (i.e. in particular if immediate repair of the item is not possible) and unless it is only a minor breach of contract. You do not have the right to replace goods if only a part (component) of the goods is defective. If during the complaint procedure we conclude that only a part of the goods is defective, we will replace this part. You cannot request the replacement of goods for goods sold at a lower price. Instead, you may request a discount on the purchase price. d) Repair of the item
