Appendix A. Service and Support

The following information describes the technical support that is available for your product, during the
warranty period or throughout the life of your product. Refer to the Lenovo Limited Warranty for a full
explanation of Lenovo warranty terms.

Online technical support

Online technical support is available during the lifetime of a product at:
http://www.lenovo.com/support

Product replacement assistance or exchange of defective components also is available during the
warranty period. A Lenovo technical support representative can help you determine the best alternative.
In addition, if your Lenovo option is installed into a Lenovo computer, the option takes on the warranty
of the computer in which it is installed. For many Lenovo computers, this can entitle the Lenovo option
for warranty service up to three years.

Telephone technical support

Installation and configuration support through the Customer Support Center will be available until 90
days after the option has been withdrawn from marketing. After that time, the support is cancelled, or
made available for a fee, at Lenovo’s discretion. Additional support is also available for a nominal fee.

Before contacting a Lenovo technical support representative, please have the following information
available: option name and number, proof of purchase, computer manufacturer, model, serial number and
manual, the exact wording of any error message, description of the problem, and the hardware and
software configuration information for your system.

Your technical support representative might want to walk you through the problem while you are at your
computer during the call.

Appendix B. Lenovo Limited Warranty

L505-0010-01 04/2008

This Lenovo Limited Warranty applies only to Lenovo branded hardware products you purchased for
your own use and not for resale. This Lenovo Limited Warranty is available in other languages at
www.lenovo.com/warranty.

What this Warranty Covers

Lenovo warrants that each hardware product that you purchase is free from defects in materials and
workmanship under normal use during the warranty period. The warranty period for the product starts
on the original date of purchase specified on your sales receipt or invoice unless Lenovo informs you
otherwise in writing. The warranty period and type of warranty service that apply to your product are
designated below under the section titled ″Warranty Information.″

THIS WARRANTY IS YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTY AND REPLACES ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION
OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO
YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES APPLY ONLY TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY LAW
AND ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES APPLY
AFTER THAT PERIOD. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON
HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION ON DURATION
MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

How to Obtain Warranty Service

If the product does not function as warranted during the warranty period, you may obtain warranty
service by contacting Lenovo or an approved service provider. Each of them is referred to as a ″Service
Provider.″ A list of Service Providers and their telephone numbers is available at www.lenovo.com/
support/phone.

Warranty service may not be available in all locations and may differ from location to location. Charges
may apply outside a Service Provider’s normal service area. Contact a local Service Provider for
location-specific information.

What Your Service Provider Will Do to Correct Problems

When you contact a Service Provider, you must follow the problem determination and resolution
procedures specified.

Your Service Provider will attempt to diagnose and resolve your problem over the telephone, e-mail, or
through remote assistance. Your Service Provider may direct you to download and install designated
software updates.

Some problems can be resolved with a replacement part that you can install yourself called a ″Customer
Replaceable Unit″ or ″CRU.″ If so, your Service Provider will ship the CRU to you for you to install.

If your problem cannot be resolved over the telephone or remotely, through your application of software
updates or the installation of a CRU by you, your Service Provider will arrange for service under the
type of warranty service designated for the product under the section titled ″Warranty Information.″

© Copyright Lenovo 2010 11

If your Service Provider determines that it is unable to repair your product, your Service Provider will
replace it with one that is at least functionally equivalent.

If your Service Provider determines that it is unable to either repair or replace your product, your sole
remedy is to return the product to your place of purchase or to Lenovo for a refund of your purchase
price.

Replacement of a Product or Part

When the warranty service involves the replacement of a product or part, the replaced product or part
becomes Lenovo’s property and the replacement product or part becomes your property. Only unaltered
Lenovo products and parts are eligible for replacement. The replacement product or part provided by
Lenovo may not be new, but it will be in good working order and at least functionally equivalent to the
original product or part. The replacement product or part shall be warranted for the balance of the period
remaining on the original product.

Before your Service Provider replaces a product or part, you agree to:

1. remove all features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under warranty service;

2. ensure that the product or part is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that prevent its

replacement; and

3. obtain authorization from the owner to have your Service Provider service a product or part if you do
not own it.

Your Additional Responsibilities

Where applicable, before service is provided, you agree to:

1. follow the service request procedures that your Service Provider specifies;

2. backup or secure all programs and data contained in the product;

3. provide your Service Provider with all system keys or passwords and sufficient, free, and safe access

to your facilities to perform service; and

4. ensure that all information about identified or identifiable individuals (″Personal Data″) is deleted
from the product or that, with respect to any Personal Data that you did not delete, you are in
compliance with all applicable laws.

Use of Personal Information

If you obtain service under this warranty, Lenovo will store, use, and process information about your
warranty service and your contact information, including name, phone numbers, address, and e-mail
address. Lenovo will use this information to perform service under this warranty and to improve our
business relationship with you. We may contact you to inquire about your satisfaction regarding our
warranty service or to notify you about any product recalls or safety issues. In accomplishing these
purposes, we may transfer your information to any country where we do business and may provide it to
entities acting on our behalf. We may also disclose it where required by law.

What this Warranty Does not Cover

This warranty does not cover the following:

v uninterrupted or error-free operation of a product;
v loss of, or damage to, your data;
v any software programs, whether provided with the product or installed subsequently;
v failure or damage resulting from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating

environment, natural disasters, power surges, or improper maintenance by you;

v damage caused by a non-authorized service provider;
v failure of, or damage caused by, any third party products, including those that Lenovo may provide or

integrate into the Lenovo product at your request; and

12 Lenovo 512 MB NVIDIA GeForce 310 DMS-59 Dual-DVI, Dual-VGA Graphics Card User Guide

v any technical or other support, such as assistance with ″how-to″ questions and those regarding product

set-up and installation.

This warranty is voided by removal or alteration of identification labels on the product or its parts.

Limitation of Liability

Lenovo is responsible for loss or damage to your product only while it is: 1) in your Service Provider’s
possession; or 2) in transit in those cases where the Service Provider is responsible for the transportation.

Neither Lenovo nor your Service Provider is responsible for any of your data including confidential,
proprietary, or personal data contained in a product. You should remove and/or backup all such
information from the product prior to its service or return.

Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on Lenovo’s part or other liability, you may be
entitled to recover damages from Lenovo. In each such instance, regardless of the basis of your claim
against Lenovo (including breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other contract or tort claim), except
and to the extent that liability cannot be waived or limited by applicable laws, Lenovo shall not be liable
for more than the amount of actual direct damages suffered by you, up to the amount you paid for the
product. This limit does not apply to damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real
property or tangible personal property for which Lenovo is liable under law.

This limit also applies to Lenovo’s suppliers, resellers, and your Service Provider. It is the maximum
amount for which Lenovo, its suppliers, resellers, and your Service Provider are collectively responsible.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL LENOVO, ITS SUPPLIERS, RESELLERS, OR SERVICE
PROVIDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING EVEN IF INFORMED OF THEIR
POSSIBILITY: 1) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES; 2) LOSS OR DAMAGE
TO YOUR DATA; OR 3) SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS REVENUE, GOODWILL OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS. AS
SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY
NOT APPLY TO YOU.

Dispute Resolution

If you acquired the product in Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam or Sri Lanka, disputes
arising out of or in connection with this warranty shall be finally settled by arbitration held in Singapore
and this warranty shall be governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Singapore,
without regard to conflict of laws. If you acquired the product in India, disputes arising out of or in
connection with this warranty shall be finally settled by arbitration held in Bangalore, India. Arbitration
in Singapore shall be held in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of Singapore International Arbitration
Center (″SIAC Rules″) then in effect. Arbitration in India shall be held in accordance with the laws of
India then in effect. The arbitration award shall be final and binding on the parties without appeal. Any
award shall be in writing and set forth the findings of fact and the conclusions of law. All arbitration
proceedings, including all documents presented in such proceedings, shall be conducted in the English
language, and the English language version of this warranty prevails over any other language version in
such proceedings.

Other Rights

THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS
WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE OR JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. YOU MAY ALSO
HAVE OTHER RIGHTS UNDER APPLICABLE LAW OR WRITTEN AGREEMENT WITH LENOVO.
