Statement of Limited Warranty
The warranties provided by IBM in this State-
ment of Limited Warranty apply only to
Machines you originally purchase for your use,
and not for resale, from IBM or your reseller.
The term "Machine" means an IBM machine, its
features, conversions, upgrades, elements, or
accessories, or any combination of them. Unless
IBM specifies otherwise, the following warran-
ties apply only in the country where you
acquire the Machine. If you have any questions,
contact IBM or your reseller
.
Production Status
Each Machine is manufactured from new parts, or
new and used parts. In some cases, the Machine
may not be new and may have been previously
installed. Regardless of the Machine's production
status, IBM's warranty terms apply.
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 Specifica-
tions. The warranty period for a Machine is a speci-
fied, fixed period commencing on its Date of
Installation. The date on your receipt is the Date of
Installation, unless IBM or your reseller informs you
otherwise.
During the warranty period IBM or your reseller, if
authorized by IBM, will provide warranty service
under the type of service designated for the
Machine and will manage and install engineering
changes that apply to the Machine.
For IBM or your reseller to provide warranty service
for a feature, conversion, or upgrade, IBM or your
reseller may require that the Machine on which it is
installed be 1) for certain Machines, the designated,
serial-numbered Machine and 2) at an engineer-
ing-change level compatible with the feature, con-
version, or upgrade. Many of these transactions
involve the removal of parts and their return to IBM.
that are provided on an exchange basis. You repre-
sent that all removed parts are genuine and unal-
tered. A part that replaces a removed part will
assume the warranty service status of the replaced
part.
If a Machine does not function as warranted during
the warranty period, IBM or your reseller will repair
or replace it with one that is at least functionally
equivalent, without charge. The replacement may
not be new, but it will be in good working order. If
