If the Customer requests Service & Support in another country than the Country and/or when the Warranty period on the Product is finished, Service & Support will be invoiced to the Consumer.

Specifically for batteries:

Disposable batteries that may be included with the Product are not covered by any warranty. Any charging time or battery life otherwise indicated merely corresponds to indicative timeframes which may vary depending on End- User’s use and provided the End-User respects Packard Bell advice to optimise the battery life time.

Specifically for Liquid Crystal Display (“LCD”) screens:

Packard Bell strives to provide the highest quality LCD display products in the industry. Your Product meets the Class 2 specifications under the ISO 13406-2 industry guidelines for LCD monitors.

LCD screens use pixels to display information. A pixel is a combination of three sub-pixels (red, green and blue) that produce a specific colour. There are millions of these sub-pixels on each LCD screen. Pixel faults on LCD screens can be comprised of whole pixels or sub-pixels going dark, staying permanently lit or flashing.

The ISO 13406-2 standard allows for a certain number of pixel faults based on the number of total pixels in the monitor (determined by the screen size). Packard Bell will replace an LCD screen during the Warranty Period if it meets the following criteria:

Type 1: A full pixel is always visible on the screen, resulting in a white point.

Type 2: A full pixel does never illuminate at all, resulting in a dark point.

Type 3: One or two sub-pixels are always switched on or switched off, resulting in a pixel of one of the basic colours (red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow). Or a continuously blinking pixel occurs.

Faulty Cluster 1: Within a field of 5x5 pixels there are several malfunctions of Type 1 or Type 2.

Faulty Cluster 2: Within a field of 5x5 pixels there are several malfunctions of Type 3. 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.

If a separate Warranty & Service sheet defines a different pixel policy, then this overrules the pixel policy described in this Limited Warranty.
