HP 483.uk manual Customer Responsibilities, Obtaining Hardware Warranty Repair Service

Customer Responsibilities

You may be required to run HP-supplied diagnostic programs before a Hardware repair is scheduled or a replacement part is dispatched. After the troubleshooting, if no Hardware defect is detected, the service will be charged at HP’s standard rates.

You are responsible for the security of your own proprietary and confidential information and for maintaining a procedure external to the products for reconstruction of lost or altered files, data, or programs.

You should back up all data on your system before calling the HP Customer Care Centre for repair.

In case of pickup for HP Repair Centre, you must remove all added accessories and package the defective unit in the original box.

Obtaining Hardware Warranty Repair Service

For the duration of the hardware warranty, hardware repair service includes Customer-replaceable parts, Carry-in services, and In-Home Pickup and Delivery services, as described below. To obtain hardware warranty service, you need to call one of the referrals at one of the telephone numbers listed earlier in the Support Guide, or take your HP Pavilion to an authorised service provider. You must be prepared to supply proof of purchase.

Customer-replaceable Parts Service

If available in your area, some customer-replaceable parts may be serviced through expedited part shipment. HP will send you the relevant part along with written instructions on how to replace the defective component. If necessary, HP will provide you with telephone assistance. Defective parts and units must be returned to HP within 30 days. HP may ask for a credit card as collateral for the more expensive parts (such as monitors) and will charge you for the retail price of the part if the defective part or unit is not returned within 30 days.

Carry-in Services

Hardware service during the hardware warranty period can be obtained in returning your PC to a HP Pavilion PC authorised service provider.

In-Home Pickup and Delivery Services

In mainland of England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Republic of Ireland, we may pick up your PC so that it becomes available for the HP Repair Centre and gets fixed. Outside of this area and within the EEC, it’s your responsibility to return the PC to the retailer or to the nearest HP office.
