=< C. IBM Statement of Limited Warranty Z125-4753-08
04/2004
Part 1 - General Terms
This Statement of Limited Warranty includes Part 1 - General Terms, Part 2 -
Country-unique Terms, and Part 3 - Warranty Information. The terms of Part 2 replace
or modify those of Part 1. The warranties provided by IBM in this Statement of Limited
Warranty apply only to Machines you purchase for your use, and not for resale. The
term ″Machine″ means an IBM machine, its features, conversions, upgrades, elements, or
accessories, or any combination of them. The term ″Machine″ does not include any software
programs, whether pre-loaded with the Machine, installed subsequently or otherwise.
Nothing in this Statement of Limited Warranty affects any statutory rights of
consumers that cannot be waived or limited by contract.
What this Warranty Covers
IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and workmanship
and 2) conforms to IBM’s Official Published Specifications ( ″Specifications″) which are
available on request. The warranty period for the Machine starts on the original Date
of Installation and is specified in Part 3 - Warranty Information. The date on your invoice
or sales receipt is the Date of Installation unless IBM or your reseller informs you
otherwise. Many features, conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their
return to IBM. A part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty service
status of the removed part. Unless IBM specifies otherwise, these warranties apply only
in the country or region in which you purchased the Machine. THESE WARRANTIES
ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND REPLACE ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
L I M I T E D T O , T H E I M P L I E D W A R R A N T I E S O R C O N D I T I O N S O F
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 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 MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU.
What this Warranty Does not Cover
This warranty does not cover the following:
v any software programs, whether pre-loaded or shipped with the Machine, or installed
subsequently;
v failure resulting from misuse (including but not limited to use of any Machine capacity
or capability, other than that authorized by IBM in writing), accident, modification,
unsuitable physical or operating environment, or improper maintenance by you;
v failure caused by a product for which IBM is not responsible; and
