Original Turkish text

MADDE 578 · 3. Sorumluluğun kalkması

Konaklayan zararını öğrenir öğrenmez işletene bildirmezse, istem hakkını kaybeder.

İşleten böyle bir sorumluluk üstlenmediğini veya sorumluluğu bu Kanunda gösterilmemiş olan bir koşula bağladığını, herhangi bir yolla ilan etse bile, sorumluluktan kurtulamaz.
