(c) For purposes of §§ 6A-2-315 or 6A-2.1-213, with respect to a sale or lease of an assistive technology device, the seller or lessor shall be deemed to know that the consumer is relying on the seller's or lessor's skill or judgment to select or furnish a suitable device in light of the knowledge that the seller or lessor has, or is deemed to have by reason of subsection (b) of this section, unless the consumer specifies a particular device and signs and is furnished a copy of a writing that:
(1) Particularly describes the device that the consumer is specifying;
(2) States that this person is specifying that device described; and
(3) Contains the following notice, conspicuously in type that is at least four (4) points larger than the surrounding text: "There is no warranty (guarantee) that this product will be fit for your particular needs. There is only a warranty (guarantee) that the product will be fit for the purposes that it ordinarily meets. This is because you have specified the product you want to buy instead of relying on the seller's/lessor's knowledge to help choose one based upon your particular needs."
