The rental relationship relates to the vehicle mentioned on the cover of this contract in the
time period specified. The vehicle must be returned at the agreed time at the latest.
The lessee bears full responsibility for the vehicle until the vehicle is returned in accordance with paragraph 2.
Final damage check by the lessor is only to be considered as carried out after the lessor has had the vehicle washed. The lessor is not bound by a specific time limit for this, but will endeavour to have the damage check carried out no later than 48 hours (2 days) after the vehicle is returned. The time runs within the regular opening hours of the outdoor rental station. In the case of returning the vehicle outside the landlord's own rental station, e.g. when returning to a workshop, company or other address, the time of 48 hours (2 days) will initially run from the time the vehicle arrives at the landlord's own rental station within the rental station's regular opening hours. If the landlord can prove with time-stamped photographs that the damage has occurred during a particular tenancy, a claim for damages may be brought at any time after the tenancy, but not later than 6 months after the termination of the tenancy.
If there is a factual reason, the lessor may demand the vehicle returned at an earlier date than the agreed date.
The lessee may demand the reason stated without this having any bearing on the obligation to return the vehicle. The lease can be extended by prior agreement with the landlord.
The lessor has the right to collect the vehicle after the expiration of the agreed rental period, cf.
Chapter 13 of the Enforcement Act, cf. § 13-1. The costs associated with this are covered
of the tenant. In case of exceeding the agreed time of return or other gross violation of
rental conditions, any discount, insurance or special agreement may be cancelled by the landlord.
During the rental period and until the vehicle is returned to the lessor, the lessee bears all responsibility for the vehicle and its use.
The tenant is obliged to pay the following:
The lessee is obliged, as far as possible, to examine the vehicle immediately after it has been presented to the lessee and take at least a picture from each side of the vehicle in order to document any damage to the vehicle before it is put into use. This should also be done when the lease is terminated, preferably also with a picture of the km condition and a receipt for refueled fuel.
The lessee is obliged to familiarize himself with the rules that apply to the rented vehicle in particular and Norwegian traffic rules in general.
Foreign renters have a special duty to familiarize themselves with relevant driver's license regulations and rules with regard to alcohol/drug use and traffic.
During the rental period, the lessee shall ensure that the vehicle is maintained with regard to lubricating oils, cooling water, tire pressure and the like. In case of doubt about maintenance, the landlord should be contacted.
The lessee is obliged to treat and use the vehicle in a proper manner, and not:
Damages arising from the above mentioned points in 3.3.1-19 are not covered by the agreed deductible limitation.
The lessor is obliged at the agreed time and at the agreed place to place the vehicle at the tenant's disposal.
The vehicle must be in good and regulatory condition and contain at least 20 litres of fuel or 60% recharged batteries for electric vehicles.
The lessor is obliged to keep the vehicle liability-insured in accordance with the rules of the Automobile Liability Act.
If the landlord significantly defaults on his obligations under the agreement, the tenant may terminate the lease. However, the landlord must be given reasonable opportunity to remedy the breach by rectification or re-delivery. If correction or re-delivery is not applicable or is not made within a reasonable time after the tenant has complained about the defect, the tenant may demand a proportionate reduction of the price. The tenant may claim compensation for the loss he suffers as a result of the landlord's default, insofar as the landlord fails to show that the default or the cause of it is due to an obstacle beyond his control which he could not reasonably be expected to take into account at the time of the agreement or to avoid or overcome the following of. Compensation for indirect losses, such as interruption of operations, deprivation, lost profits as a result of a contract with a third party falling out or not being properly fulfilled, or losses resulting from damage to other than the rental cars, cf. the criteria used in Section 67 of the Purchase Act, can only be claimed if the lessor has shown gross negligence or intent. The tenant loses his right to plead default, be it deficiency or delay, if he does not give notice to the landlord within a reasonable time after he has discovered or should have discovered the default.
Technical errors that may occur or come to the tenant's knowledge during the rental period, and which can be remedied within a time that is proportionate to the tenant's needs and the duration of the lease, do not give the tenant the right to cancel the tenancy. If the tenant nevertheless chooses to cancel the tenancy, the tenant will be responsible for the rent during the rental period, minus the time that would have elapsed for the repair. The renter is further responsible for the expenses incurred by the lessor in connection with having the vehicle brought back to the lessor's station. If repair cannot be provided within the said time limit, the lessor decides whether he will deliver a new vehicle to the lessee for the continuation of the tenancy or whether the tenancy shall be deemed to have ceased from the time when the lessor received notification of the relationship from the tenant. In this case, the lessor has the vehicle transported back at his own expense, and the lessor is then not liable for any losses or liabilities of the lessee.
The Lessor shall not be liable for damage to or loss of property left, stored or transported by the Renter or any other person in the vehicle. The Lessor disclaims any liability to the Tenant with respect to any loss of time, money or other that may arise out of, or have connection with the tenancy, beyond liability described above. The Lessor is not responsible for the installation of additional equipment such as ski racks, child seats, GPS etc. The lessee is solely responsible for ensuring that the equipment is installed correctly and in accordance with the regulations.
The lessor may require the lessee to provide security for the vehicle and for the financial liability arising from the tenancy. The security can be provided in the form of a reservation on a debit/credit card, bank deposit, Vipps transfer or any other form of deposit that may be agreed between the parties. The Renter accepts that the Lessor may charge the Tenant's debit/credit card reservation or deposit for rental amount based on time and mileage, tolls and other fees or charges as well as fuel and any repairs.
Additions to and changes to the lease terms in this Agreement are binding only if they are contained in a written agreement.
This contract is governed by Norwegian law.
The lessee adopts that the landlord's place of business is where the contract is concluded, i.e. contractual protection in accordance with the Dispute Laws § 4-5 (2), cf. § 4-6, as protection in the event of disputes arising in connection with the tenancy.
