Produktehaftpflichtgesetz, LGBl. 1993 Nr. 12 · Read the law's page

• If you make a finished product, a raw material or a component, or present yourself as the manufacturer by putting your name, trade mark or another mark of identification on the product, you answer for the damage a defect in it causes (Arts. 1 and 2).
• If you import a product into the European Economic Area for sale, hire, hire-purchase or another form of distribution in the course of your business, you answer as the manufacturer (Art. 3).
• If the manufacturer cannot be identified and you supply the product, name the manufacturer or your own supplier to the injured person within a reasonable time after being asked, or you answer as the manufacturer (Art. 4, paragraph 1).
• Offer the safety a person is entitled to expect, judged on all circumstances including the presentation of the product, the use that can reasonably be expected and the time it was put into circulation (Art. 6, paragraph 1).
• Be able to prove, if you rely on an exemption, that you did not put the product into circulation, that the circumstances indicate the defect did not yet exist when you put it into circulation, that the product was not made for sale or distribution with an economic purpose or in the course of your professional activity, that the defect is due to compliance with mandatory rules issued by the public authorities, or that the defect could not be recognised according to the state of science and technology when you put the product into circulation (Art. 7, paragraph 1).
• If you make a raw material or a component, be able to prove that the defect was caused by the design of the product it went into or by the instructions of that product's manufacturer (Art. 7, paragraph 2).
• Do not rely on a contract term against the injured person, because an agreement that limits or excludes your liability under the Act is void (Art. 9).
• Answer jointly and severally with every other person liable for the same damage, and expect no reduction of your liability because a third party's act also caused the damage (Arts. 7a and 7b, paragraph 1).
• The Act applies to a movable thing, including one that forms part of another movable or of an immovable, and to electricity; whether it reaches software supplied on its own or as a service is not settled (Art. 5, paragraph 1).
