Types of Warranty Service
If required, IBM provides repair or exchange service depending on the type of warranty service
specified for your Machine in the above table and as described below. Warranty service may be
provided by your reseller if approved by IBM to perform warranty service. Scheduling of service will
depend upon the time of your call and is subject to parts availability. Service levels are response time
objectives and are not guaranteed. The specified level of warranty service may not be available in all
worldwide locations, additional charges may apply outside IBM’s normal service area, contact your
local IBM representative or your reseller for country and location specific information.
Customer Replaceable Unit (“CRU”) Service
IBM provides replacement CRUs to you for you to install. CRU information and replacement
instructions are shipped with your Machine and are available from IBM at any time on your
request. Installation of Tier 1 CRUs is your responsibility. If IBM installs a Tier 1 CRU at your
request, you will be charged for the installation. You may install a Tier 2 CRU yourself or request
IBM to install it, at no additional charge, under the type of warranty service designated for your
Machine. IBM specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CRU whether a defective CRU
must be returned to IBM. When return is required, 1) return instructions and a container are shipped
with the replacement CRU, and 2) you may be charged for the replacement CRU if IBM does not
receive the defective CRU within 30 days of your receipt of the replacement.
