There was a quote from Michael Dehan at Bookeen on his interpretation of it.

Quote:
Euro warranties vs. U.S. ones
European warranty is one year, but there is a European directive which describes “the principle of the conformity of the product with the contract” which is not linked to defects or malfunctions which is covered by a standard guarantee. According to the directive: “The seller is liable to the consumer for any lack of conformity which exists when the goods are delivered to the consumer and which becomes apparent within a period of two years.”
Let’s take an example, I say on my notice that my device supports PDF, but when I deliver it, it appears that PDF is not supported and I release no software upgrade to correct the issue. Then there is a lack of conformity between the device and its description; the customer can ask to get a device which works in conformity with the notice and this during two years.
For info our device does support PDF. As written in our website and packaging.

I wonder if this means that if my battery doesn't last for 8,000 page turns then is a "lack of conformity".
