Article R612-4 of the French Consumer Code

The mediator, in informing the parties of the solution he proposes, reminds them, by simple letter or by electronic means:
1° That they are free to accept or refuse his proposed solution;
2° That participation in mediation does not exclude the possibility of recourse to a court;
3° That the solution may differ from the decision that would be handed down by a judge.
The mediator also specifies the legal effects of accepting the proposed solution and sets a time limit for acceptance or rejection of it.
