The seller shall deliver goods that comply with the contract and with the criteria set out in article L. 217-5.
It is responsible for defects in conformity existing at the time of delivery of the goods within the meaning of article L. 216-1, which appear within a period of two years from the date of the contract.
In the case of a contract for the sale of goods containing digital elements:
1° Where the contract provides for the continuous supply of digital content or a digital service for a period of two years or less, or where the contract does not specify the duration of the supply, the seller is liable for any lack of conformity of the digital content or digital service that becomes apparent within two years of delivery of the goods ;
2° Where the contract provides for the continuous supply of digital content or a digital service for a period of more than two years, the seller is liable for any lack of conformity of the digital content or digital service that becomes apparent during the period in which it is supplied under the contract.
For such goods, the applicable period does not deprive the consumer of his right to updates in accordance with the provisions of article L. 217-19.
The seller is also liable, for the same period of time, for any lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, assembly instructions or installation when the latter was his responsibility under the contract or was carried out under his responsibility, or when the incorrect installation, carried out by the consumer as provided for in the contract, is due to shortcomings or errors in the installation instructions supplied by the seller.
This warranty period applies without prejudice to articles 2224 et seq. of the Civil Code. The starting point for the limitation period for the consumer’s action is the day on which the consumer becomes aware of the lack of conformity.
