3.WARRANTY COVERAGE AND WARRANTY PERIOD

Packard Bell warrants that the Product and the Software are free from defect in material and workmanship for the Warranty Period set out below. Packard Bell guarantees that the Product is free of viruses (or other pre-programmed devices with similar effect) at the moment of first use only.

The Warranty Period for the computer and peripherals, consumable items, notebook batteries and software (if included) is defined by the dealer of your computer, unless a separate Warranty & Service sheet is provided with your computer.

This warranty is limited to the replacement of the Product or part recognised as defective with an identical or compa- rable Product or part, new or equivalent to new. This warranty covers the repair, parts and labour included or exchange, as set out below, during the Warranty Period.

Any items missing from the original packaging of the Product must be reported to Service & Support within 90 days from the date of purchase.

Software Warranty only applies to Software that was originally supplied with the Product. It does not provide the Customer with Software usage support. Any other Software (e.g. games) is subject to the third party licence and warranty conditions.

Whenever this is reasonable and at the sole discretion of Packard Bell or when this is mandatory by national consumer legislation of the Country, Packard Bell may limit or extend the Warranty Period on the Product.
