1. DELIVERY AND COLLECTION
The Vehicle is delivered to the Renter in good general condition. Any existing damages or defects are recorded in the Damage Report document, which accompanies the Rental Agreement and is signed by the Renter. Any defect or damage to the Vehicle that is not recorded in the above document is presumed to have been caused by the Renter. Any complaint or reservation by the Renter regarding the condition of the Vehicle must be expressed immediately at the time of delivery and in writing on the Rental Agreement. Failure to submit a complaint in writing, in this manner and within this timeframe, is considered as acceptance of the Vehicle without reservation.
The Renter undertakes to return the Vehicle to K1 RENTALS, together with all forms, tools, and accessories accompanying it, in the same condition it was received, and at the location and time specified in the agreement.
The Renter is also required to return the Vehicle with the same amount of fuel in the tank as at the time of collection.
K1 RENTALS reserves the right to recover possession and use of the Vehicle at any time, without notice, and at the Renter’s expense, if the Vehicle has been used or is being used in violation of the terms of this agreement.
2. THEFT, DAMAGES, WEAR, COVERAGES AND INSURANCE
K1 RENTALS provides third-party liability insurance coverage only to persons authorized by the company to operate the Vehicle, under an insurance policy with terms available for inspection.
If damages caused to third parties exceed the insurance coverage limit, the Renter is liable to K1 RENTALS for the excess amount paid by the company.
If the insurance compensation is not paid or is reduced for reasons attributable to the Renter, the Renter is liable to K1 RENTALS for the total amount that the company is required to pay to third parties.
The above third-party liability insurance does not cover damages to the Vehicle itself.
K1 RENTALS provides coverage against theft of the Vehicle and fire damage, under an insurance policy with terms available for inspection. The Renter is not covered if the theft or fire resulted from their own negligence.
Loss or damage of personal items belonging to the Renter and stored inside the Vehicle is not covered.
K1 RENTALS covers Vehicle damage in the event of a road traffic accident, with a Renter excess/deductible payment applied according to the company’s price list (C.D.W. coverage).
The excess applies even if the accident was caused by a third party. The cost for this coverage is included in the rental fee.
For an additional charge as specified in the company price list, K1 RENTALS may provide full coverage of accident damages.
Damages to the wheels, undercarriage, windows, and mirrors are not covered, and the full cost is borne by the Renter.
K1 RENTALS covers any exterior or mechanical wear resulting from normal and agreed proper use.
The Renter is liable for any wear or damage to the interior of the Vehicle, even if caused by daily use, third parties, accidental events or force majeure.

f) All charges are subject to final inspection.
4. TERMS OF USE
In the event of mechanical failure or any sign of abnormal functionality, the Renter must notify K1 RENTALS immediately so that the company may direct the Renter to an authorized service center, or a representative of K1 RENTALS may carry out the inspection and repair. Any interference with the Vehicle by the Renter or any third party is strictly prohibited without prior written approval from K1 RENTALS. Failure to comply with these obligations results in full liability for any damages incurred by the company.

It is allowed to load the Vehicle onto ferries, provided that the Renter is the only person parking the Vehicle inside the ship.
5. RENTAL EXTENSION
If the Renter wishes to extend the rental, they must notify K1 RENTALS at least 48 (forty-eight) hours before the end of the rental period, so availability can be verified and approval granted.
Without this approval, the contract cannot be extended, and implied or silent renewal is excluded, even if the Renter continues using the Vehicle.
Failure to obtain approval constitutes civil and criminal liability for illegal use and possession of the Vehicle.
In the event of extension, all original and extension terms apply.
Rental prices during the extension period may be adjusted at the sole discretion of K1 RENTALS.
6. LIABILITY
