Customer self repair
HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and
allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period
HP (or HP service providers or service partners) identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the
use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly to you for replacement. There are two categories of
CSR parts:
•
Mandatory —Parts for which customer self repair is mandatory. If you request HP to replace
these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs of this service.
•
Optional —Parts for which customer self repair is optional. These parts are also designed for
customer self repair. If, however, you require that HP replace them for you, there may or may not
be additional charges, depending on the type of warranty service designated for your product.
NOTE: Some HP parts are not designed for customer self repair. In order to satisfy the customer
warranty, HP requires that an authorized service provider replace the part. These parts are identified
as "No" in the Illustrated Parts Catalog.
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be shipped for next business day
delivery. Same day or four-hour delivery may be offered at an additional charge where geography
permits. If assistance is required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will
help you over the telephone. HP specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CSR part
whether a defective part must be returned to HP. In cases where it is required to return the defective
part to HP, you must ship the defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally five
(5) business days. The defective part must be returned with the associated documentation in the
provided shipping material. Failure to return the defective part may result in HP billing you for the
replacement. With a customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and
determine the courier/carrier to be used.
For more information about HP's Customer Self Repair program, contact your local service provider.
