LIMITATION OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT
EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE
WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD.
Items Not Covered by Warranty
IBM does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of a Machine.
Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under warranty, such
as assistance via telephone with "how-to" questions and those regarding
Machine set-up and installation, will be provided WITHOUT WARRANTIES
OF ANY KIND.
Warranty Service
To obtain warranty service for a Machine, contact IBM or your reseller. If you
do not register your Machine with IBM, you may be required to present proof
of purchase.
During the warranty period, IBM or your reseller, if approved by IBM to
provide warranty service, provides without charge certain types of repair and
exchange service to keep Machines in, or restore them to, conformance with
their Specifications. IBM or your reseller will inform you of the available
types of service for a Machine based on its country of installation. At its
discretion, IBM or your reseller will 1) either repair or exchange the failing
Machine and 2) provide the service either at your location or a service center.
IBM or your reseller will also manage and install selected engineering changes
that apply to the Machine.
Some parts of IBM Machines are designated as Customer Replaceable Units
(called "CRUs"), e.g., keyboards, memory, or hard disk drives. IBM ships
CRUs to you for replacement by you. You must return all defective CRUs to
IBM within 30 days of your receipt of the replacement CRU. You are
responsible for downloading designated Machine Code and Licensed Internal
Code updates from an IBM Internet Web site or from other electronic media,
and following the instructions that IBM provides.
When warranty service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item
IBM or your reseller replaces becomes its property and the replacement
becomes yours. You represent that all removed items are genuine and
unaltered. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working
order and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The
replacement assumes the warranty service status of the replaced item. Many
features, conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their
return to IBM. A part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty
service status of the removed part.
