ANNEX A
SELLERS DISLAIMERS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

BARBEQUES	Stainless Steel Barbeques	Unless otherwise stated, barbeques require assembly. Note that Gas Regulators and Gas Pipes are not included. Stainless Steel Barbeques must be covered when not in use. Stainless steel may experience ticking and/or surface rust. This is not a defect in the product. You are responsible read the user manual in order to determine the best care methods for your newly purchased product. Additional Tip: Applying baby oil to your newly purchased barbeque before using it for the first time will protect your barbeque to minimize rusting. If any surface rust is formed, we recommend wiping down the barbeque with the same oil every couple of weeks in order to decrease the likelihood of it being formed again.
BRASS	Brass fixtures	One of brass's ever-present properties is its tendency to tarnish when not protected from the environment. By time, brass will also age and the colour may tend to get darker. This is a natural process and is not a defect in the product. Kindly note claims for any replacements will not be accepted.
CLEANING OF PURCHASED GOODS	Sofas, Light Fixtures and Furniture	Cleaning of sofas, light fixtures and all types of furniture should be done with a damp cloth unless specified otherwise by the manufacturer’s care guidelines. You are responsible read the user manual in order to determine the best care methods for your newly purchased product. The use of cleaning products is not recommended and Customers should avoid cleaning products as it may lead to corrosion.
FURNITURE		Unless otherwise stated, furniture requires assembly.
INSTALLATION	Installation on limestone walls	When metal or aluminium fixtures are installed on limestone walls, these tend to experience corrosion. This is not a defect in our product but tends to occur depending on the type of surface said fixtures are being installed. The installation of rubber sheets (acting as a spacer between the stone and the fixture) eliminates the said corrosion. We use of stainless steel screws is also highly recommended when installing said fixtures.
LIGHTNING AND BULBS	Bulbs	Unless specified in writing, bulbs are not provided by the Seller to the Customer when purchasing lightning fixtures. In line with the provisions of this Agreement, due to possible electrical fluctuations, we cannot offer warranties on light bulbs. Any warranties or other contractual terms and conditions as found on the packing are hereby being excluded and Seller shall not be held responsible in this regard.
	Ground recessed and submersible lights	All bulbs and light fixtures being installed recessed in the ground must have an ingress protection (‘IP’) rating of 67 or higher. All bulbs and light fixtures bought with the intention of being submersed must have and IP rating of 68 of higher.
	Light fixtures	All bulbs and light fixtures being installed externally and used for outdoor spaces need to have an ingress protection (‘IP’) rating of 65. We highly recommend the use of IP65 fixtures for outdoor spaces. Fixtures with an IP44 rating may also be used outdoors provided that they are installed in sheltered areas. Kindly note that warranty will be voided if fixtures with an IP rating of less than 65 are used outdoors.
