6Warranty and Support Information

Chapter 2. 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.
© Copyright Lenovo 2010 7

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.″
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.
8Warranty and Support Information

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.

vuninterrupted or error-free operation of a product;
vloss of, or damage to, your data;
vany software programs, whether provided with the product or installed
subsequently;
vfailure or damage resulting from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable

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

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.

Provider. It is the maximum amount for which Lenovo, its suppliers, resellers,

If required, your Service Provider will provide repair or exchange service
depending on the type of warranty service specified for your product and the
available service. Scheduling of service will depend upon the time of your call,
parts availability, and other factors.
A warranty period of three (3) years on parts and one (1) year on labor means
that Lenovo will provide warranty service without charge for:
a. parts and labor during the first year of the warranty period (or a longer
period as required by law); and
b. parts only, on an exchange basis, in the second and third years of the
warranty period. Your Service Provider will charge you for any labor provided
in performance of the repair or replacement in the second and third years of
the warranty period.
Types of Warranty Service
1. Customer Replaceable Unit (″CRU″) Service
Under CRU Service, your Service Provider will ship CRUs to you for
installation by you. CRU information and replacement instructions are shipped
with your product and are available from Lenovo at any time upon request.
CRUs that are easily installed by you are called Self-service CRUs, while
Optional-service CRUs may require some technical skill and tools. Installation
of Self-service CRUs is your responsibility. You may request that a Service
Provider install Optional-service CRUs under one of the other types of
warranty service designated for your product. An optional service offering may
be available for purchase from Lenovo to have Lenovo install Self-service
CRUs for you. You may find a list of CRUs and their designation in the
publication that ships with your product or at www.lenovocom/CRUs. The
12 Warranty and Support Information

requirement to return a defective CRU, if any, will be specified in the materials
shipped with a replacement CRU. When return is required: 1) return
instructions, a prepaid return shipping label, and a container will be included
with the replacement CRU; and 2) you may be charged for the replacement
CRU if your Service Provider does not receive the defective CRU within thirty
(30) days of your receipt of the replacement.
2. On-site Service
Under On-Site Service, your Service Provider will either repair or exchange the
product at your location. You must provide a suitable working area to allow
disassembly and reassembly of the Lenovo product. For some products, certain
repairs may require your Service Provider to send the product to a designated
service center.
3. Courier or Depot Service
Under Courier or Depot Service, your product will be repaired or exchanged at
a designated service center, with shipping arranged by your Service Provider.
You are responsible for disconnecting the product. A shipping container will be
provided to you for you to return your product to a designated service center.
A courier will pick up your product and deliver it to the designated service
center. Following its repair or exchange, the service center will arrange the
return delivery of the product to you.
4. Customer Carry-In or Mail-In Service
Under Customer Carry-In or Mail-In Service, your product will be repaired or
exchanged at a designated service center, with delivery or shipping arranged
by you. You are responsible to deliver or mail, as your Service Provider
specifies, (prepaid by you unless specified otherwise) the product, suitably
packaged to a designated location. After the product has been repaired or
exchanged, it will be made available for your collection. Failure to collect the
product may result in your Service Provider disposing of the product as it sees
fit. For Mail-in Service, the product will be returned to you at Lenovo’s
expense, unless your Service Provider specifies otherwise.
5. Product Exchange Service
Under Product Exchange Service, Lenovo will ship a replacement product to
your location. You are responsible for its installation and verification of its
operation. The replacement product becomes your property in exchange for the
failed product, which becomes the property of Lenovo. You must pack the
failed product in the shipping carton used to ship the replacement product and
return it to Lenovo. Transportation charges, both ways, are paid by Lenovo.
Failure to use the carton in which the replacement product was received may
Chapter 2. Lenovo Limited Warranty 13

result in your responsibility for damage to the failed product during shipment.
You may be charged for the replacement product if Lenovo does not receive
the failed product within thirty (30) days of your receipt of the replacement
product.
