If your problem can be resolved with a CRU (for example, keyboard, mouse,
speaker, memory, or hard disk drive), and depending upon the maintenance service
offerings in your geography, IBM will ship the CRU to you for you to install. CRU
information and replacement instructions are shipped with your machine and are
available from IBM upon your request.
Based upon availability, CRUs will be shipped for next-business-day delivery. IBM
specifies, in the materials shipped with a replacement CRU, whether a defective
CRU must be returned to IBM. When return is required, 1) return instructions and a
container are shipped with the replacement CRU, and 2) you may be charged for the
replacement CRU if IBM does not receive the defective CRU within 15 days of your
receipt of the replacement.
Customer Replaceable Unit Service and On-site Service for other selected parts:
On-site and Customer Replaceable Unit Service is available in your geography.
Refer to the information above for On-site Service. Below, you will find additional
