(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 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 guarantees 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.

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.

UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. HP IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE

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

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)

Customer Responsibilities
To enable HP to provide the best possible support and service during the Limited Warranty Period,
you will be required to:
■
Maintain a proper and adequate environment, and use the HP Hardware Product in accordance
with the instructions furnished.
■
Verify configurations, load most recent firmware, install software patches, run HP diagnostics
and utilities, and implement temporary procedures or workarounds provided by HP while HP
works on permanent solutions.
■
Use HP remote support solutions where applicable. HP strongly encourages you to use
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.
■
Cooperate with HP in attempting to resolve the problem over the telephone. This may involve
performing routine diagnostic procedures, installing additional software updates or patches,
removing third-party options, and/or substituting options.
■
Make periodic backup copies of your files, data, or programs stored on your hard drive or other
storage devices as a precaution against possible failures, alteration, or loss. Before returning
any HP Hardware Product for warranty support or repairs, back up your files, data, and
programs, and remove any confidential, proprietary, or personal information.
■
Remove any options or accessories that would be subject to loss during the repair or
replacement process.
■
Perform additional tasks as defined within each type of warranty service listed below and any
other actions that HP may reasonably request in order to best perform the warranty support.
Types of Hardware 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.
Customer Self Repair Warranty Service
HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and
allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis
period, HP identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will ship that
part directly to you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts:
■
Parts for which customer self repair is mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts, you
will be charged for the travel and labor costs of this service.
■
Parts for which customer self repair is optional. These parts are also designed for customer
self repair. If, however, you require that HP replace them for you, this may be done at no
additional charge under the type of warranty service designated for your product.
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be shipped for next business day
delivery. Same-day or four-hour delivery may be offered at an additional charge where geography
permits. If assistance is required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician
will help you over the telephone. HP specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CSR part
whether a defective part must be returned to HP. In cases where it is required to return the defective
part to HP, you must ship the defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally
five (5) business days. The defective part must be returned with the associated documentation in the
provided shipping material. Failure to return the defective part 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.
Parts only warranty service
Your HP Limited Warranty may include a parts only warranty service. Under the terms of parts only
service, HP will provide replacement parts free of charge. If HP carries out the repair, labor and
logistics costs are at your expense.

Advanced Unit Replacement Warranty Service
Your HP Limited Warranty may include an advanced unit replacement warranty service. Under the
terms of the advanced unit replacement warranty service, HP will ship a replacement unit directly to
you if the HP Hardware Product you purchased is diagnosed as defective. 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 five (5) 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 unit. HP provides advanced unit
replacement service during standard office hours. Standard office hours are typically 08.00 to 17.00,
Monday through Friday, but may vary with local business practices. If your location is outside the
customary service zone (typically 50km / 31 miles) 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

it to your location. HP will incur all repair, logistics, and insurance costs for this type of service.
Carry-in Warranty Service
Your HP Limited Warranty may include a 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 you assume risk of
loss during shipping.

to you and incur all logistics and insurance costs to return the product to you.
On-site Warranty Service

service, HP may, at its sole discretion, determine if a defect can be repaired:
■
Remotely
■
By the use of a CSR part
■
By a service call at the location of the defective unit
If HP ultimately determines that an on-site service call is required to repair a defect, the call will be
