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 or lease 
payments (less interest) instead of a replacement. This is 
your exclusive remedy for defective products.

maintenance or calibration or other external causes; (b) by
