2.2. Using the shopping cart function, the customer has the option of placing the desired products in the shopping cart without obligation. To do this, press the corresponding button or symbol on the respective product page. A product that is not desired and has already been selected can be removed from the shopping cart at any time by calling up the shopping cart and removing the corresponding product by clicking the delete button.

If all the desired products are in the shopping cart, the customer can initiate the payment process: If the customer presses the checkout button, he can log in with an existing customer account, open a new customer account or use the guest order function to place the order without opening a customer account. In the following, the customer must enter the personal data required to process the contract, with mandatory fields being highlighted. In the further ordering process, the desired payment and shipping method will be requested.

The customer can check his selection and entries at this point. Errors can be corrected by pressing the respective change button and corresponding new entry / selection. By pressing the order button ["order with obligation to pay"] the purchase process is completed and the customer submits a legally binding offer to conclude a contract.
