International Traveler’s Warranty (ITW)

Your computer is backed by an International Travelers Warranty (ITW) 
that gives you security and peace of mind when traveling.  Our 
worldwide network of service centers are there to give you a helping 
hand.

An ITW passport comes with your computer.  This passport contains all 
you need to know about the ITW program.  A list of available, 
authorized service centers is in this handy booklet.  Read this passport 
thoroughly.

Always have your ITW passport on hand, especially when you travel to 
receive the benefits from our support centers.  Place your proof-of-
purchase in the flap located inside the front cover of the ITW passport.

If the country you are traveling in does not have an Acer-authorized 
ITW service site, you can still get in contact with our offices worldwide.

Please consult www.acersupport.com.

Before you call

Please have the following information available when you call Acer for 
online service, and please be at your computer when you call.  With 
your support, we can reduce the amount of time a call takes and help 
solve your problems efficiently.

If there are error messages or beeps reported by your computer, write 
them down as they appear on the screen (or the number and sequence 
in the case of beeps).
