The provider is bound to deliver to the lessee, together with the chattel, a document in which the obligations, promises and warranties, as well as the modifications, limitations and exclusions of the same, are established.
The lessee shall have the right to claim compliance with the obligations, promises and warranties from the provider, and may also claim compensation for hidden defects in the chattel. If the lessee does not claim the rights he/she has against the provider, the lessor can claim them. Any promise statement or description made by the provider to the lessee regarding the leased chattel, through the use of samples, models or suggestions, shall constitute a warranty of the provider to the lessee that the chattel shall conform to such a promise, description or statement.
In the case whereby the chattel subject to the lease is a motor vehicle and the lease involved is not an exclusive operating lease, the provider shall deliver to the lessee evidence of payment of the taxes corresponding to the leased motor vehicle.
