Types of Warranty Service

To enable HP to provide the best possible support and service during the Limited Warranty
Period, you may be directed by HP to verify configurations, load most recent firmware,
install software patches, run HP diagnostics tests or use HP remote support solutions where
applicable.
HP strongly encourages you to accept the use of, or to employ available support
technologies provided by HP. If you choose not to deploy available remote support
capabilities, you may incur additional costs due to increased support resource requirements.
Listed below are the types of warranty support service that may be applicable to the HP
Hardware Product you have purchased.
On-site Warranty Service
Your HP Limited Warranty service may include on-site labor support to repair your
hardware. HP provides on-site service during standard office hours. Standard office hours
are typically 08.00 to 17.00, Monday through Friday, but may vary with local business
practices. If your location is outside the customary service zone (typically 50km) response
times may be longer or there may be additional charges. To locate the nearest HP authorized
service provider refer to the HP Web site at: www.hp.com/support.
HP may, at its sole discretion, determine if on-site warranty service is required. For example,
in many cases, the defect can be fixed by the use of a Customer Self Repair (CSR) part that
you are required to replace yourself based on instructions and documentation provided by
HP. You are also required to co-operate with HP in attempting to resolve the problem over
the telephone. This may involve performing routine diagnostic procedures, installing
software updates or patches, removing third party options and/or substituting options. In
order to receive onsite support, you must: (a) have a representative present when HP
provides warranty services at your site; (b) notify HP if products are being used in an
environment which poses a potential health or safety hazard to HP employees or
subcontractors; (c) subject to its reasonable security requirements, provide HP with
sufficient, free, and safe access to and use of all facilities, information and systems
