Warranty and repair services
You can upgrade your standard hardware warranty service or extend the service
beyond the warranty period.
Warranty upgrades in the U.S. include:
•
Carry-in service to on-site service
If your warranty provides carry-in repair service, you can upgrade to on-site
repair service, either standard or premium. The standard upgrade provides a
trained servicer within the next business day (9 a.m. to 5 p.m., local time,
Monday though Friday). The premium upgrade provides 4-hour average
response, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
•
On-site service to premium on-site service
If your warranty provides for on-site service, you can upgrade to premium on-
site service (4-hour average on-site response, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week).
You also can extend your warranty. Warranty and Repair Services offers a variety of
post-warranty maintenance options, including ThinkPad EasyServ Maintenance
Agreements. Availability of the services varies by product.
