HP X5400 Support Manual page 10

This Limited Warranty is applicable in all countries/regions and may be enforced in any country/region
where HP or its authorized service providers offer warranty service subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in this Limited Warranty. However, warranty service availability and response times may vary from
country/region to country/region and may also be subject to registration requirements in the country/region
of purchase. If so, your HP authorized service provider can provide you with details.
This Limited Warranty applies only to HP-branded and Compaq-branded hardware products (collectively
referred to in this Limited Warranty as "HP Hardware Products") sold by or leased from Hewlett-Packard
Company, its worldwide subsidiaries, affiliates, authorized resellers, or country/region distributors (collectively
referred to in this Limited Warranty as "HP") with this Limited Warranty. The term "HP Hardware Product" is
limited to the hardware components and required firmware. The term "HP Hardware Product" DOES NOT
include any software applications or programs; non-HP products or non-HP branded peripherals. All non-HP
products or non-HP branded peripherals external to the HP Hardware Product — such as external storage
subsystems, displays, printers and other peripherals — are provided "AS IS" without HP warranty. However,
non-HP manufacturers and suppliers, or publishers may provide their own warranties directly to you.
HP warrants that the HP Hardware Products that you have purchased or leased from HP are free from defects
in materials or workmanship under normal use during the Limited Warranty Period. The Limited Warranty
Period starts on the date of purchase or lease from HP, or from the date HP completes installation. Your dated
sales or delivery receipt, showing the date of purchase or lease of the product, is your proof of the purchase
or lease date. You may be required to provide proof of purchase or lease as a condition of receiving warranty
service. You are entitled to hardware warranty service according to the terms and conditions of this document
if a repair to your HP Hardware Product is required within the Limited Warranty Period.
Unless otherwise stated, and to the extent permitted by local law, new HP Hardware Products may be
manufactured using new materials or new and used materials equivalent to new in performance and
reliability. HP may repair or replace HP Hardware Products (a) with new or previously used products or parts
equivalent to new in performance and reliability, or (b) with equivalent products to an original product that has
been discontinued. Replacement parts are warranted to be free from defects in material or workmanship for
ninety (90) days or, for the remainder of the Limited Warranty Period of the HP Hardware Product they are
replacing or in which they are installed, whichever is longer.
During the Limited Warranty Period, HP will, at its discretion, repair or replace any defective component. All
component parts or hardware products removed under this Limited Warranty become the property of HP. In
the unlikely event that your HP Hardware Product has recurring failures, HP, at its sole discretion, may elect to
provide you with (a) a replacement unit of HP's choosing that is the same or equivalent to your HP Hardware
Product in performance or (b) to give you a refund of your purchase price or lease payments (less interest)
instead of a replacement. This is your exclusive remedy for defective products.
Exclusions
HP DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF THIS PRODUCT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-
FREE. HP IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE THAT OCCURS AS A RESULT OF YOUR FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS INTENDED FOR THE HP HARDWARE PRODUCT.
This Limited Warranty does not apply to expendable or consumable parts and does not extend to any product
from which the serial number has been removed or that has been damaged or rendered defective (a) as a
result of accident, misuse, abuse, contamination, improper or inadequate maintenance or calibration or other
external causes; (b) by operation outside the usage parameters stated in the user documentation that shipped
with the product; (c) by software, interfacing, parts or supplies not supplied by HP; (d) improper site
preparation or maintenance; (e) virus infection; (f) loss or damage in transit; or (g) by modification or service
by anyone other than (i) HP, (ii) an HP authorized service provider, or (iii) your own installation of end-user
replaceable HP or HP approved parts if available for your product in the servicing country/region.
