Damage sustained through fire, explosion or lighnting
Damage caused by accidental impact, overturning or by a crash or collision with another item
Damage connected with the instability of the land through suffering subsidence, landlside or rockfall
Damage caused by natural phenomena such as storm, hail or frost, provided that they are not covered by the Insurance Compensation Consortium
