vany software programs, whether pre-loaded or shipped with the Machine, or installed subsequently;

vfailure resulting from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating environment, or improper maintenance by you;

vfailure caused by a product for which Lenovo is not responsible; and

vany non-Lenovo products, including those that Lenovo may procure and provide with or integrate into a Lenovo Machine at your request.

Lenovo does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of a Machine.

Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under warranty, such as assistance with "how-to" questions and those regarding Machine set-up and installation, is provided WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND.

How to Obtain Warranty Service

Warranty service may be provided by Lenovo, IBM, your reseller if authorized to perform warranty service, or an authorized warranty service provider. Each of them is referred to as a “Service Provider.”

If the Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, contact a Service Provider. If you do not register the Machine with Lenovo, you may be required to present proof of purchase as evidence of your entitlement to warranty service.

What Lenovo Will Do to Correct Problems

When you contact a Service Provider for service, you must follow the problem determination and resolution procedures that we specify. An initial diagnosis of your problem can be made either by a technician over the telephone or electronically by access to a support website.

The type of warranty service applicable to your Machine is specified in Part 3 - Warranty Information.

You are responsible for downloading and installing designated software updates from a support web site or from other electronic media, and following the instructions that your Service Provider provides. Software updates may include basic input/output system code (called “BIOS”), utility programs, device drivers, and other software updates.
