Options and Software
Limited Warranties
The Limited Warranty terms and conditions for most
HP-branded options (HP Options) are as set forth in the
Limited Warranty applicable to the HP Option and are
included in the HP Option product packaging. If your HP
Option is installed in an HP Hardware Product, HP may
provide warranty service for either the period specified in
the warranty documents (HP Option Limited Warranty
Period) that shipped with the HP Option or for the remaining
warranty period of the HP Hardware Product in which the
HP Option is being installed, whichever period is the longer,
but not to exceed three (3) years from the date you
purchased the HP Option. The HP Option Limited Warranty
Period starts from the date of purchase from HP or an HP
authorized reseller. Your dated sales or delivery receipt,
showing the date of purchase of the HP Option, is your
warranty start date. See your HP Option Limited Warranty
for more details. Non-HP options are provided "AS IS."
However, non-HP manufacturers and suppliers may provide
warranties directly to you.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THE APPLICABLE SOFTWARE

PRODUCTS OR THE OPERATING SYSTEM PREINSTALLED

distributed by HP under the HP brand name are set forth in
the applicable end-user license or program license
agreement provided with that software. If the removable
media on which HP distributes the software proves to be

days of purchase, your sole remedy shall be to return the
removable media to HP for replacement. It is your
responsibility to contact non-HP manufacturers or suppliers
for their warranty support.
