Part 1 - General Terms
This Statement of Limited Warranty includes Part 1 - General Terms, Part 2 -
Country-unique Terms, and Part 3 - Warranty Information. The terms of Part 2
replace or modify those of Part 1. For purposes of this Statement of Limited
Warranty, "IBM" means the IBM entity that provided your Machine to you or to
your reseller–for example, International Business Machines Corporation in the U.S.

AFFECTS ANY STATUTORY RIGHTS OF CONSUMERS THAT CANNOT BE
WAIVED OR LIMITED BY CONTRACT.

What this Warranty Covers
IBM warrants that each Machine is free from defects in materials and
workmanship and conforms to its Specifications. "Specifications" is information
specific to a Machine in a document entitled "Official Published Specifications",
which is available upon request.
During the warranty period, IBM provides repair and exchange service for the
Machine under the type of warranty service IBM designates for the Machine. The
warranty period for the Machine is a fixed period starting on its original Date of
Installation. The date on your purchase invoice or sales receipt is the Date of
Installation unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise. The warranty
period, type of warranty, and service level that apply to your Machine are
designated in Part 3.
Many features, conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their
return to IBM. An IBM part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty
