Statement of Limited Warranty
The warranties provided by IBM in this Statement of Limited Warranty apply
only to Machines you originally purchase for your use, and not for resale, from
IBM or your reseller. The term "Machine" means an IBM machine, its features,
conversions, upgrades, elements, or accessories, or any combination of them.
Unless IBM specifies otherwise, the following warranties apply only in the
country where you acquire the Machine. If you have any questions, contact IBM
or your reseller.
Production Status
Each Machine is manufactured from new parts, or new and used parts. In some
cases, the Machine may not be new and may have been previously installed.
Regardless of the Machine's production status, IBM's warranty terms apply.
The IBM Warranty for Machines
IBM warrants that each Machine
1.
is free from defects in materials and workmanship and
2.
conforms to IBM's Official Published Specifications.
The warranty period for a Machine is a specified, fixed period commencing on
its Date of Installation. The date on your receipt is the Date of Installation, unless
IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise. During the warranty period IBM or
your reseller, if authorized by IBM, will provide warranty service under the type
of service designated for the Machine and will manage and install engineering
changes that apply to the Machine. For IBM or your reseller to provide warranty
service for a feature, conversion, or upgrade, IBM or your reseller may require
that the Machine on which it is installed be
1.
for certain Machines, the designated, serial-numbered Machine and
2.
at an engineering-change level compatible with the feature, conversion, or
upgrade.
Many of these transactions involve the removal of parts and their return to IBM.
You represent that all removed parts are genuine and unaltered. A part that
replaces a removed part will assume the warranty service status of the replaced
part.
