Obtaining On-Site Warranty Service
Obtaining On-Site Warranty Service
To obtain on-site warranty service, the customer must contact an HP Customer
Support center, an HP Sales and Service Office, or a participating Authorized HP
Personal Computer Dealer Repair Center. The customer must be prepared to supply
proof of the purchase date.
Components external to the System Processor Unit — such as keyboard, mouse,
headphones — are not eligible for on-site warranty.
During the on-site warranty period, parts defined by HP as being customer-
replaceable components may be serviced through expedited part shipment. In this
event, HP will prepay shipping charges, duty, and taxes; provide telephone
assistance on replacement of the component when necessary; and pay shipping
charges, duty, and taxes for any part that HP asks to be returned.
On-site visits caused by non-Hewlett-Packard products — whether internal or
external to the system processor unit — are subject to standard per-incident travel
and labor charges.
On-site service for this product is restricted or unavailable in certain locations. In HP
Excluded Travel Areas — areas where geographical obstacles, undeveloped roads,
or unsuitable public transportation prohibit routine travel — service is provided on a
negotiated basis at extra charge.
Response time for HP on-site service in an HP Service Travel Area is normally next
business day (excluding HP holidays) for HP Travel Zones 1-3 (generally 100 miles
or 160 Km from the HP office). Response time is second business day for Zones 4
and 5 (200 miles, 320 Km); third business day for Zone 6 (300 miles, 480 Km); and
negotiated beyond Zone 6. Worldwide Customer Support Travel information is
available from any HP Sales and Service Office.
Travel restrictions and response time for dealer or distributor service are defined by
the participating dealer or distributor.
Service contracts which provide after-hour or weekend coverage, faster response
time, or service in an Excluded Travel Area are often available from HP, an
authorized dealer, or authorized distributor at additional charge.
