IBM Statement of Warranty Worldwide except Canada, Puerto
Rico, Turkey, United States (Part 1 - General Terms)
This Statement of Warranty includes Part 1 - General Terms and Part 2 - Country-unique Terms.
The terms of Part 2 may replace or modify those of Part 1. The warranties provided by IBM
in this Statement of Warranty apply only to Machines you purchase for your use, and not for
resale, from IBM or your reseller. The term “Machine” means an IBM machine, its features,
conversions, upgrades, elements, 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. Unless IBM specifies otherwise, the following warranties
apply only in the country where you acquire the Machine. Nothing in this Statement of 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.
Machine - 40/80 GB DLT Internal Tape Drive
Warranty Period* - Three Years
*Contact your place of purchase for warranty service information. Some IBM Machines are eligible
for On-site warranty service depending on the country where service is performed.
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. 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.
During the warranty period IBM or your reseller, if approved by IBM to provide warranty
service, will provide repair and exchange service for the Machine, without charge, under the type
of service designated for the Machine and will manage and install engineering changes that apply
to the Machine.
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. The
replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order.
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.
