General

safety

guidelines

Always

observe

the

following

precautions

to

reduce

the

risk

of

injury

and

property

damage.

Service

Do

not

attempt

to

service

a

product

yourself

unless

instructed

to

do

so

by

the

IBM

®

Support

Center.

provider

who

is

approved

to

repair

your

particular

product.

Note:

Some

parts

can

be

upgraded

or

replaced

by

the

customer.

These

parts

are

referred

to

as

Customer

Replaceable

Units,

or

CRUs.

IBM

expressly

identifies

CRUs

as

such,

and

provides

documentation

with

instructions

when

it

is

appropriate

for

customers

to

replace

those

parts.

You

must

closely

follow

all

instructions

when

performing

such

replacements.

Always

make

sure

that

the

power

is

turned

off

and

that

the

product

is

unplugged

from

any

power

source

before

you

attempt

the

replacement.

If

you

have

any

questions

or

concerns,

contact

cords

and

power

adapters

supplied

by

the

product

manufacturer.

Never

wrap

a

power

cord

around

the

power

adapter

or

other

object.

Doing

so

can

stress

the

to

fray,

crack

or

crimp.

This

can

present

a

safety

hazard.

Always

route

power

cords

so

that

they

will

not

be

walked

on,

tripped

over,

or

pinched

by

objects.

Protect

the

cord

and

power

adapters

from

liquids.

For

instance,

do

not

leave

your

cord

or

power

adapter

near

sinks,

tubs,

toilets,

or

on

that

are

cleaned

with

liquid

cleansers.

Liquids

can

cause

a

short

circuit,

particularly

if

the

cord

or

power

adapter

has

been

stressed

by

misuse.

Liquids

can

also

cause

gradual

corrosion

of

the

power

cord

terminals

and/or

the

connector

terminals

on

the

adapter

which

can

eventually

result

in

overheating.

Always

connect

power

cords

and

signal

cables

in

the

correct

order

and

ensure

that

all

power

cord

connectors

are

securely

and

completely

plugged

into

receptacles.

Do

not

use

any

power

adapter

that

shows

corrosion

at

the

ac

input

pins

and/or

shows

signs

of

overheating

(such

as

deformed

plastic)

at

the

ac

input

or

anywhere

on

the

power

adapter.

4

Do

not

use

any

power

cords

where

the

electrical

contacts

on

either

end

show

signs

of

corrosion

or

overheating

or

where

the

power

cord

appears

to

have

been

damaged

in

any

way.

Extension

cords

and

Ensure

that

extension

cords,

surge

protectors,

uninterruptible

power

supplies,

and

power

strips

that

you

use

are

rated

to

handle

the

electrical

requirements

of

the

product.

Never

overload

these

devices.

If

power

strips

are

used,

the

load

should

not

exceed

the

power

strip

input

rating.

Consult

an

electrician

for

more

information

if

you

have

questions

about

power

loads,

power

requirements,

and

input

ratings.

Plugs

and

outlets

If

a

receptacle

(power

outlet)

that

you

intend

to

use

with

your

computer

equipment

appears

to

be

damaged

or

corroded,

do

not

use

the

outlet

until

a

replacement.

Some

products

are

equipped

with

a

three-pronged

plug.

This

plug

fits

only

into

a

grounded

electrical

outlet.

This

is

a

safety

feature.

Do

not

defeat

this

safety

feature

by

trying

to

insert

it

into

a

non-grounded

outlet.

If

you

cannot

insert

the

plug

into

the

outlet,

contact

an

electrician

for

an

approved

outlet

adapter

or

to

replace

the

outlet

with

one

that

enables

this

safety

feature.

Never

overload

an

electrical

outlet.

The

overall

system

load

should

not

exceed

80

percent

of

the

branch

circuit

rating.

Consult

an

electrician

pack

to

provide

system

power

when

in

portable

mode.

Batteries

supplied

by

IBM

for

use

with

your

product

have

been

tested

for

compatibility

and

should

only

be

replaced

with

IBM

approved

The

warranties

provided

by

IBM

in

this

Statement

of

Limited

Warranty

apply

only

to

or

accessories,

or

any

combination

of

them.

The

term

″Machine″

does

not

include

any

software

programs,

whether

pre-loaded

with

the

Machine,

installed

subsequently

or

otherwise.

Nothing

in

this

Statement

of

Limited

Warranty

affects

any

statutory

rights

of

by

contract.

What

this

Warranty

Covers

IBM

warrants

that

each

Installation

unless

IBM

or

your

reseller

informs

you

otherwise.

Many

features,

conversions,

or

upgrades

involve

the

removal

of

parts

and

their

return

to

IBM.

A

part

that

replaces

a

removed

part

will

assume

the

warranty

service

status

of

the

removed

part.

Unless

IBM

specifies

otherwise,

these

warranties

apply

only

in

the

country

or

region

in

which

you

purchased

the

Machine.

THESE

LASTS,

SO

THE

ABOVE

LIMITATION

MAY

NOT

APPLY

TO

YOU.

What

this

Warranty

Does

not

Cover

This

warranty

does

not

cover

the

following:

v

any

software

programs,

whether

pre-loaded

or

shipped

with

the

Machine,

or

installed

subsequently;

17

v

failure

resulting

from

to

use

of

any

Machine

capacity

or

capability,

other

than

that

authorized

by

IBM

in

writing),

accident,

or

improper

maintenance

by

you;

v

failure

caused

by

a

not

responsible;

and

v

any

non-IBM

products,

including

those

that

IBM

may

procure

and

provide

with

or

integrate

into

an

IBM

Machine

at

your

request.

The

warranty

is

voided

by

removal

or

alteration

of

identification

labels

on

the

Machine

or

its

parts.

IBM

does

not

warrant

uninterrupted

or

error-free

operation

Any

technical

or

other

support

provided

for

a

Machine

under

warranty,

such

as

assistance

via

telephone

with

″how-to″

questions

and

those

regarding

set-up

and

installation,

is

provided

WITHOUT

WARRANTIES

OF

ANY

KIND.

How

to

Obtain

Warranty

Service

If

the

Machine

does

not

function

as

warranted

during

the

warranty

period,

contact

IBM

or

your

reseller

to

obtain

warranty

service.

If

you

do

not

register

the

Machine

with

IBM,

you

may

be

required

to

present

proof

of

purchase

as

evidence

of

your

entitlement

to

warranty

service.

What

IBM

Will

Do

to

Correct

Problems

When

you

call

for

service,

you

must

follow

the

problem

determination

and

resolution

procedures

that

IBM

specifies.

A

technician

will

attempt

to

make

an

initial

diagnosis

of

your

problem

and

help

you

resolve

it

over

the

telephone.

The

type

of

warranty

service

applicable

to

your

Machine

is

specified

in

Part

3

-

Warranty

Information.

You

are

responsible

for

downloading

and

installing

designated

Machine

Code

(microcode,

basic

input/output

system

code

(called

″BIOS″),

utility

programs,

device

drivers,

and

diagnostics

delivered

with

an

IBM

Machine

)

and

other

software

updates

from

an

IBM

Internet

Web

site

or

from

other

electronic

media,

and

following

the

instructions

that

IBM

provides.

If

your

problem

can

be

resolved

with

a

Customer

Replaceable

Unit

(″CRU″)

(e.g.,

keyboard,

mouse,

speaker,

memory,

hard

disk

drive

and

other

easily

replaceable

parts),

IBM

will

ship

these

parts

to

you

for

replacement

by

you.

18

If

the

Machine

does

not

function

as

warranted

during

the

warranty

period

and

your

problem

cannot

be

resolved

over

the

telephone,

through

your

application

of

Machine

Code

or

software

updates,

or

with

a

CRU,

IBM

or

your

reseller,

if

approved

by

IBM

to

provide

warranty

service,

will

either,

at

its

discretion,

1)

repair

it

to

make

it

function

as

warranted,

or

2)

replace

it

with

one

that

is

at

least

functionally

equivalent.

If

IBM

is

unable

to

do

either,

you

may

return

the

Machine

to

your

place

of

purchase

and

your

money

will

be

refunded.

IBM

or

your

reseller

will

also

manage

and

install

selected

engineering

changes

that

apply

to

the

Machine.

Exchange

of

a

Machine

or

Part

When

the

warranty

service

involves

the

exchange

of

a

Machine

or

part,

the

item

IBM

or

your

reseller

replaces

becomes

its

property

and

the

replacement

becomes

yours.

You

represent

that

all

removed

items

are

genuine

and

unaltered.

The

replacement

may

not

be

new,

but

will

be

in

good

working

order

and

at

least

functionally

equivalent

to

the

item

replaced.

The

replacement

assumes

the

warranty

service

status

of

the

replaced

item.

Your

Additional

Responsibilities

Before

IBM

or

your

reseller

exchanges

a

Machine

or

part,

you

agree

to

remove

all

features,

parts,

options,

alterations,

and

attachments

not

warranty

service.

You

also

agree

to:

1.

ensure

that

the

Machine

is

free

of

any

legal

obligations

or

restrictions

that

prevent

its

exchange;

2.

obtain

authorization

from

the

owner

to

have

IBM

or

your

reseller

service

a

Machine

that

you

do

not

own;

and

3.

where

applicable,

before

service

is

provided:

IBM

or

your

reseller

provides;

b.

backup

or

secure

all

programs,

data,

and

contained

in

the

Machine;

c.

IBM

or

your

reseller

with

sufficient,

free,

and

safe

access

to

your

facilities

to

its

obligations;

and

d.

inform

IBM

or

your

reseller

of

changes

in

the

Machine’s

location.

4.

(a)

ensure

all

information

about

identified

or

identifiable

individuals

(Personal

Data)

is

deleted

from

the

Machine

(to

the

extent

technically

possible),

(b)

allow

IBM,

your

reseller

or

an

IBM

supplier

to

process

on

your

behalf

any

remaining

Personal

Data

as

IBM

or

your

reseller

considers

19

necessary

to

fulfill

its

obligations

under

this

Statement

of

Limited

Warranty

(which

may

include

shipping

the

Machine

for

such

processing

to

other

IBM

service

locations

around

the

world),

and

(c)

ensure

that

such

processing

complies

with

any

laws

applicable

to

such

Personal

Data.

Limitation

of

Liability

IBM

is

responsible

for

loss

of,

is

responsible

for

the

transportation

charges.

Neither

IBM

responsible

for

any

of

your

confidential,

proprietary

arise

where,

because

of

a

default

on

IBM’s

part

or

other

liability,

you

are

entitled

to

recover

damages

from

IBM.

In

each

such

instance,

regardless

of

the

basis

on

which

you

are

entitled

to

claim

damages

from

IBM

(including

fundamental

breach,

negligence,

misrepresentation,

or

other

contract

or

tort

claim),

except

for

any

liability

that

cannot

be

waived

or

limited

by

applicable

laws,

IBM

is

liable

for

no

more

than

1.

damages

for

bodily

injury

(including

death)

and

damage

to

real

property

and

tangible

personal

property;

and

2.

the

amount
