Hardware Limited Warranty
General Terms
This HP Hardware Limited Warranty gives you, the customer, express limited warranty rights from HP, the
manufacturer. Please refer to HP’s website for an extensive description of your limited warranty entitlements. In
addition, you may also have other legal rights under applicable local law or special written agreement with HP.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, HP MAKES NO OTHER
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. HP EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL
WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS NOT STATED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED BY LAW ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE LIMITED
WARRANTY PERIOD. SOME STATES OR COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW A LIMITATION ON HOW LONG
AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR CONSUMER PRODUCTS. IN SUCH STATES OR COUNTRIES, SOME
EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
THE LIMITED WARRANTY TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS STATEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT
LAWFULLY PERMITTED, DO NOT EXCLUDE, RESTRICT, OR MODIFY BUT ARE IN ADDITION TO THE
MANDATORY STATUTORY RIGHTS APPLICABLE TO THE SALE OF THIS PRODUCT TO YOU.
This Limited Warranty is applicable in all countries and may be enforced in any country or region where HP or its
authorised service providers offer warranty service subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Limited
Warranty. However, warranty service availability and response times may vary from country to country and may
also be subject to registration requirements in the country of purchase. If so, your HP authorised service provider
can provide you with details.
This Limited Warranty applies only to HP-branded and Compaq-branded hardware products (collectively referred to
in this Limited Warranty as “HP Hardware Products”) sold by or leased from Hewlett-Packard Company, its
worldwide subsidiaries, affiliates, authorised resellers, or country distributors (collectively referred to in this Limited
Warranty as “HP”) with this Limited Warranty. The term “HP Hardware Product” is limited to the hardware
components and required firmware.
The term “HP Hardware Product” DOES NOT include any software
applications or programs, non-HP products or non-HP branded peripherals. All non-HP products or non-HP
branded peripherals external to the HP Hardware Product— such as external storage subsystems, displays, printers
and other peripherals—are provided “AS IS” without HP warranty. However, non-HP manufacturers and suppliers,
or publishers may provide their own warranties directly to you.
HP warrants that the HP Hardware Products that you have purchased or leased from HP are free from defects in
materials or workmanship under normal use during the Limited Warranty Period. The Limited Warranty Period
starts on the date of purchase or lease from HP, or from the date HP completes installation. Your dated sales or
delivery receipt, showing the date of purchase or lease of the product, is your proof of the purchase or lease date.
You may be required to provide proof of purchase or lease as a condition of receiving warranty service. You are
entitled to hardware warranty service according to the terms and conditions of this document if a repair to your HP
Hardware Product is required within the Limited Warranty Period.
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
