IBM REPAIR IDENTIFICATION TAG
REPAIR ID TAG
MT
SN
PART NUMBER 19P5941
ATTENTION:
1. A Repair ID tag maintains the original serial
number record of the machine and allows IBM
to entitle the machine for future maintenance
or warranty service. Mail in exchange requires
the completion and securing a Repair ID tag
(part number 19P5941) to the replacement unit.
- Verify that the machine serial number on
the failing unit matches the serial number
reported to IBM technical support.
- Transcribe the machine type, model, and
serial number of the failing unit to the
Repair ID tag for the replacement unit.
USE BALLPOINT PEN TO
COMPLETE THE RID TAG.
- Place the Repair ID tag as close as
possible, but not covering, the machine
serial number of the replacement unit.
- The original serial number must be visible.
2. The use of the Repair ID tag is important for
customer inventory accuracy.
