other storage device(s) in the product(s). Remove any removable media, such as diskettes, CDs, or
PC Cards. Dell does not accept liability for lost data or software.
Dell owns all parts removed from repaired products. Dell uses new and reconditioned parts made by
various manufacturers in performing warranty repairs and building replacement products. If Dell
repairs or replaces a product, its warranty term is not extended.
Coverage During Years Two and Three
During the second and third years of this limited warranty, Dell will provide, on an exchange basis
and subject to Dell’s Exchange Policy in effect on the date of the exchange, replacement parts for
the Dell hardware product(s) covered under this limited warranty when a part requires replacement.
You must report each instance of hardware failure to Dell’s Customer Technical Support in advance
to obtain Dell’s concurrence that a part should be replaced and to have Dell ship the replacement
part. Dell will ship parts (freight prepaid) if you use an address in Canada, where applicable. Ship-
ments to other locations will be made freight collect. Dell will include a prepaid shipping container
with each replacement part for your use in returning the replaced part to Dell. Replacement parts are
new or reconditioned. Dell may provide replacement parts made by various manufacturers when
supplying parts to you. The warranty term for a replacement part is the remainder of the limited war-
ranty term.
You will pay Dell for replacement parts if the replaced part is not returned to Dell. The process for
returning replaced parts, and your obligation to pay for replacement parts if you do not return the
replaced parts to Dell, will be in accordance with Dell’s Exchange Policy in effect on the date of the
exchange.
You accept full responsibility for your software and data. Dell is not required to advise or remind
you of appropriate backup and other procedures.
