General Terms

This HP Hardware Limited Warranty gives you, the customer, express
limited warranty rights from HP, the manufacturer. Please refer to HP’s
Web site for an extensive description of your limited warranty
entitlements. In addition, you may also have other legal rights under
applicable local law or special written agreement with HP.

HP MAKES NO OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTY OR CONDITION,
WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, AND HP EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL
WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS NOT STATED IN THIS LIMITED
WARRANTY. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LOCAL LAW OF
JURISDICTIONS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES, HP DISCLAIMS ALL
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FOR ALL TRANSACTIONS OCCURRING IN
THE UNITED STATES, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF
MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESS
WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE. SOME STATES OR
COUNTRIES/REGIONS DO NOT ALLOW A LIMITATION ON HOW
LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS OR THE EXCLUSION OR
LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR
CONSUMER PRODUCTS. IN SUCH STATES OR COUNTRIES/REGIONS,
SOME EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY
MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

THE LIMITED WARRANTY TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS STATEMENT,
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT LAWFULLY PERMITTED, DO NOT EXCLUDE,
RESTRICT, OR MODIFY BUT ARE IN ADDITION TO THE MANDATORY
STATUTORY RIGHTS APPLICABLE TO THE SALE OF THIS PRODUCT
TO YOU.

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 for the same product model number
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Limited Warranty.

Under the HP Global Limited Warranty program, products purchased in
one country/region may be transferred to another country/region, where

1 year 90 days

HP or its authorized service providers offer warranty service for the same
product model number, without voiding the warranty. Warranty terms,
service availability, and service response times may vary from
country/region to country/region. Standard warranty service response
time is subject to change due to local parts availability. If so, your HP
authorized service provider can provide you with details.

HP is not responsible for any tariffs or duties that may be incurred in
transferring the products. Transfer of the products may be covered by
export controls issued by the United States or other governments.

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

1

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) by improper site preparation or maintenance;
(e) by virus infection; (f) from 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.

Exclusive Remedy

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LOCAL LAW, these terms
and conditions constitute the complete and exclusive warranty agreement
between you and HP regarding the HP Hardware Product you have
purchased or leased. These terms and conditions supersede any prior
agreements or representations — including representations made in HP
sales literature or advice given to you by HP or an agent or employee of
HP — that may have been made in connection with your purchase or
lease of the HP Hardware Product. No change to the conditions of this
Limited Warranty is valid unless it is made in writing and signed by an
authorized representative of HP.

Limitation of Liability

IF YOUR HP HARDWARE PRODUCT FAILS TO WORK AS WARRANTED
ABOVE, HP’S MAXIMUM LIABILITY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS
EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE LESSER OF THE PRICE YOU HAVE PAID FOR
THE PRODUCT OR THE COST OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF ANY
HARDWARE COMPONENTS THAT MALFUNCTION IN CONDITIONS
OF NORMAL USE.

EXCEPT AS INDICATED ABOVE, IN NO EVENT WILL HP BE LIABLE FOR
ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE PRODUCT OR THE FAILURE OF THE
PRODUCT TO PERFORM, INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS OR
SAVINGS OR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
HP IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM MADE BY A THIRD PARTY OR
MADE BY YOU FOR A THIRD PARTY.

THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY APPLIES WHETHER DAMAGES ARE
SOUGHT, OR A CLAIM MADE, UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR
AS A TORT CLAIM (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT PRODUCT
LIABILITY), A CONTRACT CLAIM, OR ANY OTHER CLAIM. THIS
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY CANNOT BE WAIVED OR AMENDED BY

ANY PERSON. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY WILL BE EFFECTIVE EVEN
IF YOU HAVE ADVISED HP OR AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF
HP OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION
OF LIABILITY, HOWEVER, WILL NOT APPLY TO CLAIMS FOR PERSONAL
INJURY.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU
MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT MAY VARY FROM STATE TO
STATE OR FROM COUNTRY/REGION TO COUNTRY/REGION. YOU
ARE ADVISED TO CONSULT APPLICABLE STATE OR
COUNTRY/REGION LAWS FOR A FULL DETERMINATION OF YOUR
RIGHTS.

Limited Warranty Period

The Limited Warranty Period for an HP Hardware Product is a specified,
fixed period commencing on the date of purchase. The date on your sales
receipt is the date of purchase unless HP or your reseller informs you
otherwise in writing.

Types of Warranty Service

To enable HP to provide the best possible support and service during the
Limited Warranty Period, you may be directed by HP to verify
configurations, load most recent firmware, install software patches, run
HP diagnostics tests, or use HP remote support solutions where applicable.

HP strongly encourages you to accept the use of, or to employ available
support technologies provided by HP. If you choose not to deploy
available remote support capabilities, you may incur additional costs due
to increased support resource requirements. Listed below are the types of
warranty support service that may be applicable to the HP Hardware
Product you have purchased.

In-Home Warranty Service

Your HP Limited Warranty service may include in-home labor support to
repair your hardware. HP provides in-home service during standard office
hours. Standard office hours are typically 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, but may vary with local business practices. If
your location is outside the customary service zone (typically 50 km)
response times may be longer or there may be additional charges. To
locate the nearest HP authorized service provider refer to the HP Web site
at: http://www.hp.com/support

HP may, at its sole discretion, determine if in-home warranty service is
required. For example, in many cases, the defect can be fixed by the use
of a customer self repair (CSR) part that you are required to replace
yourself based on instructions and documentation provided by HP. You
are also required to cooperate with HP in attempting to resolve the
problem over the telephone. This may involve performing routine
diagnostic procedures, removing third-party options, and/or substituting
options. In order to receive in-home support, you must: (a) have a
representative present when HP provides warranty services at your site;
(b) notify HP if products are being used in an environment which poses
a potential health or safety hazard to HP employees or subcontractors;
(c) subject to its reasonable security requirements, provide HP with

2

sufficient, free, and safe access to and use of all facilities, information,
and systems determined necessary by HP to provide timely support;
(d) ensure that all manufacturers labels (such as serial numbers) are in
place, accessible, and legible; (e) maintain an environment consistent
with product specifications and supported configurations.

If you require an HP representative to handle all component replacements,
support uplift contracts are available at additional cost.

Carry-in Warranty Service

Under the terms of carry-in service, you will be required to deliver your
HP Hardware Product to an authorized service location for warranty
repair. You must prepay any shipping charges, taxes, or duties
associated with transportation of the product to and from the service
location. In addition, you are responsible for insuring any product
shipped or returned to an authorized service location and assume risk of
loss during shipping.

Advanced Unit Replacement
Warranty Service

Your HP Limited Warranty may include an advance unit replacement
warranty service. Under the terms of the advanced unit replacement
warranty service, if a unit is diagnosed as defective, HP will ship a
replacement product directly to you. On receiving the replacement unit
you will be required to return the defective unit back to HP, in the
packaging that arrives with the replacement unit, within a defined period
of time, normally fifteen (15) days. HP will incur all shipping and
insurance costs to return the defective unit to HP. Failure to return the
defective unit may result in HP billing you for the replacement product.

Customer Self Repair Warranty Service

In countries/regions where it is available, your HP Limited Warranty may
include a customer self repair warranty service. If applicable, HP will
determine in its sole discretion that customer self repair is the appropriate
method of warranty service. If so, HP will ship approved replacement
parts directly to you to fulfill your HP Hardware Product warranty service.
This will save considerable repair time. After you contact the HP and the
fault diagnosis identifies that the problem can be fixed using one of these
parts, a replaceable part can be sent directly to you. Once the part
arrives, replace the defective part pursuant to the provided instructions
and documentation. If further assistance is required, call the HP Technical
Support Center and a technician will assist you over the phone. In cases
where the replacement part must be returned to HP, you must ship the
defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally fifteen
(15) days. The defective part must be returned with the associated
documentation in the provided shipping material. Failure to return the
defective product may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a
customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and
determine the courier/carrier to be used. If customer self repair applies to
you, refer to your specific HP Hardware Product announcement. You can
also obtain information on this warranty service on the HP Web site at:

Plasma HDTV Warning: Preventing
Image Retention (Burn-In)

Your plasma TV illuminates phosphor to display images, much like a
conventional tube-type television. Keeping stationary images displayed on
the TV will eventually result in uneven aging of the phosphor, causing
grayed-out images to permanently appear on the screen.

Permanent image retention can be avoided by taking some basic
precautions. Following the recommendations listed below will help ensure
your plasma TV will have longer life and offer better performance:

NOTE: Image retention and uneven screen aging are not covered by
your limited warranty.

Whenever possible, avoid frequently displaying stationary images,

•

such as Web sites, computer graphics, or video games for extended
periods of time.

Display video and images in the widescreen 16:9 ratio format. Use

•

the Aspect button on the remote control to change from 4:3 screen
size (standard television) to fill the screen in 16:9 ratio. This will
prevent potential image retention of sidebars.

Avoid viewing the onscreen display (OSD) menus from DVD players,

•

VCRs, and other components for extended periods of time.
When watching a movie from a DVD player or VCR, avoid leaving

•

the same image paused continuously over a long period of time.
Turn down the contrast and brightness of the screen. High brightness

•

and contrast can accelerate image retention or stationary images.
