Damage and Technical Faults Discovered at the Start of the Rental

These must not be used until the matter has been clarified with Engineering og Rådgivning AS.

If the repair cannot be arranged within the mentioned timeframe, the tenant may, if Engineering og Rådgivning AS has the possibility, transfer the rental to another equivalent location. If not, the rental is considered terminated from the moment Engineering og Rådgivning AS received notification of the matter from the tenant.
