The IBM Warranty for Machines
IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM's Official
Published Specifications. (See
http://www.ibm.com/storage
for details) The warranty period for a Machine is a specified,
fixed period commencing on the date of sale from IBM to the authorized IBM Distributor.
If, during the warranty period, the Machine is not in good working order, IBM will, at its option, repair or replace it at no
additional charge, except as is set forth below. A refund may also be available from your point of purchase.
In some cases, the replacement Machine may not be new and may have been previously installed. Regardless of the
Machine's production status, IBM's appropriate warranty terms apply.
Extent of Warranty
The warranty does not cover the repair or exchange of a Machine resulting from misuse, accident, modification,
unsuitable physical or operating environment, improper maintenance by you, or failure caused by a product for which IBM
is not responsible. The warranty is voided by removal or alteration of Machine or parts identification labels.
