specifies otherwise, the following warranties apply only in the country where
you acquire the Machine. Nothing in this Statement of Limited Warranty
affects any statutory rights of consumers that cannot be waived or limited by
contract. If you have any questions, contact IBM or your reseller.
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 Specifications
(″Specifications″). The warranty period for a Machine is a specified, fixed
period commencing on its Date of Installation. The date on your sales receipt
is the Date of Installation unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise.
If a Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, and
IBM or your reseller are unable to either 1) make it do so or 2) replace it with
one that is at least functionally equivalent, you may return it to your place of
purchase and your money will be refunded.
Extent of Warranty
The warranty does not cover the repair or exchange of a Machine resulting
from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating
environment, improper maintenance by you, or failure caused by a product
for which IBM is not responsible. The warranty is voided by removal or
alteration of Machine or parts identification labels.
