Product information

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, 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
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 Technical Support

Center 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 thirty (30)

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, please refer to your specific HP Hardware Product announcement. You

can also obtain information on this warranty service on the HP Web site at:

Under the terms of pickup and return service, HP will pick up the defective unit
