Important safety information
Note
Please read important safety information first.

This information can help you safely use your ThinkCentre® or ThinkPad®
personal computer. Follow and retain all information included with your
computer. The information in this document does not alter the terms of your
purchase agreement or the warranty.

Customer safety is important. Our products are developed to be safe and

effective. However, personal computers are electronic devices. Power cords,
power adapters, and other features can create potential safety risks that can
result in physical injury or property damage, especially if misused. To reduce
these risks, follow the instructions included with your product, observe all
warnings on the product and in the operating instructions, and review the
information included in this document carefully. By carefully following the
information contained in this document and provided with your product, you
can help protect yourself from hazards and create a safer computer work
environment.

Note: This information includes references to power adapters and batteries. In

addition to mobile personal computers, some products (such as speakers
and monitors) ship with external power adapters. If you have such a
product, this information applies to your product. In addition, your
computer product may contain a coin-sized internal battery that
provides power to your system clock even when the machine is
unplugged, so the battery safety information applies to all computers.

Conditions that require immediate action

Products can become damaged due to misuse or neglect. Some product
damage is serious enough that the product should not be used again until it
has been inspected and, if necessary, repaired by an authorized servicer.

As with any electronic device, pay close attention to the product when it is
turned on. On very rare occasions, you might notice an odor or see a puff of
smoke or sparks vent from your machine. Or you might hear sounds like
popping, cracking or hissing. These conditions might merely mean that an
internal electronic component has failed in a safe and controlled manner. Or,
they might indicate a potential safety issue. However, do not take risks or
attempt to diagnose the situation yourself.

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

Frequently inspect your computer and its components for damage or wear or
signs of danger. If you have any question about the condition of a
component, do not use the product. Contact the Customer Support Center or
the product manufacturer for instructions on how to inspect the product and
have it repaired, if necessary. For a list of Service and Support phone
numbers, see “Worldwide telephone list” on page 58.

In the unlikely event that you notice any of the conditions listed below, or if
you have any safety concerns with your product, stop using the product and
unplug it from the power source and telecommunication lines until you can
speak to the Customer Support Center for further guidance.
v Power cords, plugs, power adapters, extension cords, surge protectors, or
power supplies that are cracked, broken or damaged.
v Signs of overheating, smoke, sparks or fire.
v Damage to a battery (such as cracks, dents, creases), discharge from a

v The product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
v The product does not operate normally when you follow the operating
instructions.

Note: If you notice these conditions with a product (such as an extension cord)
that is not manufactured for or by Lenovo™, stop using that product
until you can contact the product manufacturer for further instructions,
or until you get a suitable replacement.

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
Customer Support Center. Use only a service 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. Lenovo
expressly identifies CRUs as such, and provides documentation with

vi Quick Reference

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

 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 the
Customer Support Center.

Although there are no moving parts in your computer after the power cord has
been disconnected, the following warnings are required for proper UL
certification.

Danger

Hazardous moving parts. Keep fingers and other body parts away.

Attention

Before replacing any CRUs, turn off the computer and wait three to
five minutes to let the computer cool before opening the cover.

Power cords and power adapters

Use only the power 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 cord in ways that can cause the cord 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.

Important safety information vii

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

Protect the cord and power adapters from liquids. For instance, do not leave
your cord or power adapter near sinks, tubs, toilets, or on floors 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.

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 related devices

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 it is
replaced by a qualified electrician.

Do not bend or modify the plug. If the plug is damaged, contact the
manufacturer to obtain 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 for more information
if you have questions about power loads and branch circuit ratings.

viii Quick Reference

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

Be sure that the power outlet you are using is properly wired, easily accessible,
and located close to the equipment. Do not fully extend power cords in a way
that will stress the cords.

Carefully connect and disconnect the equipment from the electrical outlet.

Batteries
All personal computers manufactured by Lenovo contain a non-rechargeable
coin cell battery to provide power to the system clock. In addition many
mobile products such as ThinkPad notebook PCs utilize a rechargeable battery
pack to provide system power when in portable mode. Batteries supplied by
Lenovo for use with your product have been tested for compatibility and
should only be replaced with approved parts.

Never attempt to open or service any battery. Do not crush, puncture, or

incinerate batteries or short circuit the metal contacts. Do not expose the
battery to water or other liquids. Only recharge the battery pack strictly
according to instructions included in the product documentation.

Battery abuse or mishandling can cause the battery to overheat, which can
cause gasses or flame to “vent” from the battery pack or coin cell. If your
battery is damaged, or if you notice any discharge from your battery or the
buildup of foreign materials on the battery leads, stop using the battery and
obtain a replacement from the battery manufacturer.

Batteries can degrade when they are left unused for long periods of time. For
some rechargeable batteries (particularly Lithium Ion batteries), leaving a
battery unused in a discharged state could increase the risk of a battery short
circuit, which could shorten the life of the battery and can also pose a safety
hazard. Do not let rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries completely discharge or
store these batteries in a discharged state.

Heat and product ventilation

Computers generate heat when turned on and when batteries are charging.
Notebook PCs can generate a significant amount of heat due to their compact
size. Always follow these basic precautions:
v Do not leave the base of your computer in contact with your lap or any part
of your body for an extended period when the computer is functioning or
when the battery is charging. Your computer produces some heat during
normal operation. Extended contact with the body could cause discomfort
or, potentially, a skin burn.
v Do not operate your computer or charge the battery near flammable
materials or in explosive environments.
v Ventilation slots, fans and/or heat sinks are provided with the product for
safety, comfort, and reliable operation. These features might inadvertently

Important safety information ix

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

 become blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, carpet, or other
flexible surface. Never block, cover or disable these features.

You should inspect your desktop computer for dust accumulation at least once
every three months. Before inspecting your computer, turn off the power and
unplug the computer’s power cord from the electrical outlet; then remove any
dust from vents and perforations in the bezel. If you notice external dust
accumulation, you should also examine and remove dust from the inside of the
computer including heat sink inlet fins, power supply vents, and fans. Always
turn off and unplug the computer before opening the cover. If possible, avoid
operating your computer within 2 feet of high-traffic areas. If you must operate
your computer in or near a high-traffic area, you should inspect and, if
necessary, clean your computer more frequently.

For your safety and to maintain optimum computer performance, always

follow these basic precautions with your desktop computer:
v Keep the cover closed whenever the computer is plugged in.
v Regularly inspect the outside of the computer for dust accumulation.
v Remove dust from vents and any perforations in the bezel. More frequent
cleanings might be required for computers in dusty or high-traffic areas.
v Do not block or restrict airflow into the front of the computer.
v Do not block the airflow vents on the back of the computer.
v Do not store or operate your computer inside furniture, as this might
increase the risk of overheating.
v Airflow temperatures into the computer should not exceed 35° C (95° F).
v Do not use non-ThinkCentre air filtration devices.

CD and DVD drive safety

CD and DVD drives spin discs at a high speed. If a CD or DVD is cracked or
otherwise physically damaged, it is possible for the disc to break apart or even
shatter when the CD drive is in use. To protect against possible injury due to
this situation, and to reduce the risk of damage to your machine, do the
following:
v Always store CD/DVD discs in their original packaging
v Always store CD/DVD discs out of direct sunlight and away from direct
heat sources
v Remove CD/DVD discs from the computer when not in use
v Do not bend or flex CD/DVD discs, or force them into the computer or their
packaging
v Check CD/DVD discs for cracks before each use. Do not use cracked or
damaged discs

Chapter 1. Arranging your workspace

To get the most from your computer, arrange both the equipment you use and
your work area to suit your needs and the kind of work you do. Your comfort
is of foremost importance, but light sources, air circulation, and the location of
electrical outlets also can affect the way you arrange your workspace.

Comfort
Although no single working position is ideal for everyone, here are a few
guidelines to help you find a position that suits you best.

Sitting in the same position for a long time can cause fatigue. A good chair can
make a big difference. The backrest and seat should adjust independently and
provide good support. The seat should have a curved front to relieve pressure
on the thighs. Adjust the seat so that your thighs are parallel to the floor and
your feet are either flat on the floor or on a footrest.

When using the keyboard, keep your forearms parallel to the floor and your
wrists in a neutral, comfortable position. Try to keep a light touch on the
keyboard and your hands and fingers relaxed. You can change the angle of the
keyboard for maximum comfort by adjusting the position of the keyboard feet.
Viewing Distance

Lower
Back
Support

Seat
Height

Adjust the monitor so the top of the screen is at, or slightly below, eye level.
Place the monitor at a comfortable viewing distance, usually 51 to 61 cm (20 to
24 in.), and position it so you can view it without having to twist your body.
Also position other equipment you use regularly, such as the telephone or a
mouse, within easy reach.

Glare and lighting

Position the monitor to minimize glare and reflections from overhead lights,
windows, and other light sources. Even reflected light from shiny surfaces can
cause annoying reflections on your monitor screen. Place the monitor at right

© Copyright Lenovo 2005. © Portions Copyright IBM Corp. 2005. 1

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

angles to windows and other light sources, when possible. Reduce overhead
lighting, if necessary, by turning off lights or using lower wattage bulbs. If you
install the monitor near a window, use curtains or blinds to block the sunlight.
You might have to adjust the Brightness and Contrast controls on the monitor
as the room lighting changes throughout the day.

Where it is impossible to avoid reflections or to adjust the lighting, an antiglare

filter placed over the screen might be helpful. However, these filters might
affect the clarity of the image on the screen; try them only after you have
exhausted other methods of reducing glare.

Dust buildup compounds problems associated with glare. Remember to clean

your monitor screen periodically using a soft cloth moistened with a
nonabrasive liquid glass cleaner according to you monitor manufacture’s
instructions.

Air circulation
Your computer and monitor produce heat. The computer has a fan that pulls in
fresh air and forces out hot air. The monitor lets hot air escape through vents.
Blocking the air vents can cause overheating, which might result in a
malfunction or damage. Place the computer and monitor so that nothing blocks
the air vents; usually, 51 mm (2 in.) of air space is sufficient. Also, make sure
the vented air is not blowing on someone else.

Electrical outlets and cable lengths

The location of electrical outlets and the length of power cords and cables that
connect to the monitor, printer, and other devices might determine the final
placement of your computer.

When arranging your workspace:

v Avoid the use of extension cords. When possible, plug the computer power
cord directly into an electrical outlet.
v Keep power cords and cables neatly routed away from walkways and other
areas where they might get kicked accidentally.

For more information about power cords, see “Power cord notice” on page 70
of this book.

Chapter 2. Setting up your computer
Note: Your computer might not have all of the connectors that are described in
this chapter.

Use the following information when setting up your computer. Look for the
small connector icons on the back of your computer.

If your computer cables and connector panel have color-coded connectors,

match the color of the cable end with the color of the connector. For example,
match a blue cable end with a blue connector, a red cable end with a red
connector.
1. Check the position of the voltage-selection switch on the rear of the
computer. Use a ballpoint pen to slide the switch, if necessary.
v If the voltage supply range is 90–137 V ac, set the switch to 115 V.
v If the voltage supply range is 180–265 V ac, set the switch to 230 V.

2. Your keyboard cable might have a standard keyboard connector
1 or a

Universal Serial Bus (USB) connector
2. Connect the keyboard cable to

Chapter 3. Recovering software

The Rescue and Recovery™ program provides an environment that runs

independently of the Windows operating system and is hidden from the
Windows operating system. Because the Rescue and Recovery workspace is
hidden, it is immune from most virus attacks and provides a safe place to
perform rescue and recovery operations that might not be possible in the
Windows environment. This chapter will help you become familiar withthe
following recovery solutions provided by the Rescue and Recovery program
installed on your computer:
v Create Product Recovery discs. See ″Creating and using Product Recovery
discs.″
v Create rescue media. See “Creating and using rescue media” on page 16.
v Back up your hard disk periodically. See “Backup and recovery” on page 12.
v Create a Recovery Repair diskette. See “Solving recovery problems” on page
15.

Note: The rescue disc, first disc of the Product Recovery discs and backup
discs are startable (bootable). They can be started in any type of CD or
DVD drive except for a DVD-RAM media.

If you encounter a problem, you may use the recovery tools from either the
Windows environment or from the Rescue and Recovery workspace to do one
of the two recovery operations:
v Rescue files
v Restore your backups

See “Using the rescue and recovery workspace” on page 13 to perform one of
the two recovery operation.

See the Access IBM program for additional information about the Rescue and
Recovery program.

Creating and using product recovery discs

If your computer is equipped with a recordable CD or DVD drive, you can
create a set of Product Recovery discs that enable you to restore the contents of
the hard disk to the same state as when the computer was originally shipped
from the factory. Product Recovery discs are useful if you transfer the
computer to another area, sell the computer, recycle the computer, or as a last
resort put the computer in an operational state after all other methods of
recovery have failed. It is a good idea to create a set of Product Recovery discs
as soon as possible.

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

Note: Your Microsoft Windows license permits you to create only one set of
Product Recovery discs, so it is important that you store the discs in a
safe place after you make them.

To create Product Recovery discs, do the following:

1. From the Windows desktop, click Start -> Programs (or if you are using
Windows XP, click All Programs), -> Access IBM-> Create Product
Recovery discs.
2. Follow the instructions on the screen.

Using the rescue and recovery workspace

The Rescue and Recovery workspace resides in a protected, hidden area of
your hard disk that operates independently from the Windows operating
system. This enables you to perform recovery operations even if the Windows
operating system cannot be started. You can perform the following recovery
operations from the Rescue and Recovery workspace:
v Rescue files from your hard disk or from a backup: The Rescue and
Recovery workspace enables you to locate files on your hard disk and
transfer them to a network drive or other recordable media such as a USB
hard disk drive or a diskette. This solution is available even if you did not
back up your files or if changes were made to the files since your last

Chapter 3. Recovering software 13

 backup operation. You also can rescue individual files from a Rescue and
Recovery backup located on your local hard disk, a USB device, or a
network drive.
v Restore your hard disk from a Rescue and Recovery backup: Once you
perform a backup operation using the Rescue and Recovery program, you
can perform restore operations from the Rescue and Recovery workspace,
even if you cannot start the Windows operating system.
v Restore your hard disk to the factory contents: The Rescue and Recovery
workspace enables you to restore the complete contents of your hard disk to
the same state as it was when originally shipped from the factory. If you
have multiple partitions on your hard disk, you have the option to restore
the factory contents to the primary hard disk partition (usually drive C) and
leave the other partitions intact. Because the Rescue and Recovery
workspace operates independently from the Windows operating system, you
can restore the factory contents even if you cannot start Windows.

Attention: If you restore the hard disk from a Rescue and Recovery backup
or restore the hard disk to the factory contents, all files on the primary hard
disk partition (usually drive C) will be deleted in the recovery process. If
possible, make copies of important files. If you are unable to start Windows,
you can use the Rescue files feature in the Rescue and Recovery workspace to
copy files from your hard disk to other media.

To start the Rescue and Recovery workspace, do the following:

1. Turn off your computer for at least 5 seconds.
2. While turning on your computer, repeatedly press and release the F11 or
Enter key to enter the Rescue and Recovery workspace.
3. When you hear beeps or see a logo screen, stop pressing and releasing the
F11 or Enter key.
4. If you set a Rescue and Recovery password, type your password when
prompted. The Rescue and Recovery workspace opens after a short delay.

Note: If the Rescue and Recovery workspace fails to open, see “Solving
recovery problems” on page 15.
5. Do one of the of the following:
v To rescue files from your hard disk or from a backup, click Rescue files
and follow the instructions on the screen.
v To restore your hard disk from a Rescue and Recovery backup, click
Restore your system and follow the instructions on the screen.

Post-recovery notes
Notes:
1. After restoring a hard disk to the original factory contents you might have
to reinstall device drivers for some devices. See “Recovering or installing
device drivers” on page 17.
2. Some computers come with Microsoft Office or Microsoft Works
preinstalled. If you need to recover or reinstall your Microsoft Office or
Microsoft Works applications, you must use the Microsoft Office CD or

Solving recovery problems

The Rescue and Recovery workspace runs independently of the operating
system. In order to gain access to the workspace, repeatedly press and release
the Enter or F11 key during startup. If you are unable to start the Rescue and
Recovery workspace using this method, you have three options:
v Use your rescue media (CD, DVD, or USB hard disk) to start the Rescue and
Recovery workspace. See “Creating and using rescue media” on page 16 for
details.
v Use a Recovery Repair diskette to reinstall a file that controls access to the
Rescue and Recovery workspace. See “Creating and using a Recovery Repair
diskette” on page 16 for details.
v If your intent is to restore the hard disk to its original factory contents, you
can use a set of Product Recovery discs. See “Creating and using product
recovery discs” on page 11.

It is a good idea to create a Recovery Repair diskette, rescue media, and a set
of Product Recovery discs as soon as possible and store them in a safe place as
a precautionary measure. If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery
workspace from rescue media or a set of Product Recovery CDs, you might not
have the rescue device (CD drive, DVD drive, or USB hard disk drive defined
as a startup device in the BIOS startup sequence. See “Setting a rescue device
in the startup sequence” on page 18 for more information.

Rescue media enables you to start the Rescue and Recovery program from CD,
DVD, or an externally attached USB hard disk drive. Rescue media is
extremely important if you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery
program using the Enter or F11 key.

Other services
If you travel with your computer or relocate it to a country where your
ThinkCentre or ThinkPad machine type is sold, your computer might be
eligible for International Warranty Service, which automatically entitles you to
obtain warranty service throughout the warranty period. Service will be
performed by service providers authorized to perform warranty service.

Service methods and procedures vary by country, and some services might not
be available in all countries. International Warranty Service is delivered
through the method of service (such as depot, carry-in, or on-site service) that
is provided in the servicing country. Service centers in certain countries might
not be able to service all models of a particular machine type. In some
countries, fees and restrictions might apply at the time of service.

To determine whether your computer is eligible for International Warranty

Service and to view a list of the countries where service is available, go to
http://www.lenovo.com/think/support, click Warranty, and follow the

Appendix B. IBM Statement of Limited Warranty
Z125-4753-07 11/2002

Part 1 - General Terms

This Statement of Limited Warranty includes Part 1 - General Terms, Part 2 -
Country-unique Terms, and Part 3 - Warranty Information. The terms of Part 2
replace or modify those of Part 1. The warranties provided by IBM in this Statement
of Limited Warranty apply only to Machines you purchase for your use, and not for
resale. 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. Nothing in this Statement of Limited
Warranty affects any statutory rights of consumers that cannot be waived or
limited by contract.

What this Warranty Covers

IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and
workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM’s Official Published Specifications
("Specifications") which are available on request. The warranty period for the
Machine starts on the original Date of Installation and is specified in Part 3 -
Warranty Information. The date on your invoice or sales receipt is the Date of
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 WARRANTIES ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND
REPLACE ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO
NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO
THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES APPLY AFTER THAT
PERIOD. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW
LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY 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;

© Copyright Lenovo 2005. © Portions Copyright IBM Corp. 2005. 35

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

v failure resulting from misuse (including but not limited to use of any
Machine capacity or capability, other than that authorized by IBM in
writing), accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating
environment, or improper maintenance by you;
v failure caused by a product for which IBM is 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 of a Machine.
Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under warranty, such
as assistance via telephone with "how-to" questions and those regarding
Machine 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.
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.

36 Quick Reference

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

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 under 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:
a. follow the service request procedures that IBM or your reseller
provides;
b. backup or secure all programs, data, and funds contained in the
Machine;
c. provide IBM or your reseller with sufficient, free, and safe access to
your facilities to permit IBM to fulfill 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
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, or damage to, your Machine only while it is 1)
in IBM’s possession or 2) in transit in those cases where IBM is responsible for
the transportation charges.
Neither IBM nor your reseller are responsible for any of your confidential,
proprietary or personal information contained in a Machine which you return
to IBM for any reason. You should remove all such information from the
Machine prior to its return.
Circumstances may 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 of any other actual direct damages, up to the charges (if
recurring, 12 months’ charges apply) for the Machine that is subject of the
claim. For purposes of this item, the term ″Machine″ includes Machine
Code and Licensed Internal Code (″LIC″).

This limit also applies to IBM’s suppliers and your reseller. It is the maximum
for which IBM, its suppliers, and your reseller are collectively responsible.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS IBM, ITS SUPPLIERS OR RESELLERS

LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING EVEN IF INFORMED OF THEIR
POSSIBILITY: 1) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES
(OTHER THAN THOSE UNDER THE FIRST ITEM LISTED ABOVE); 2)
LOSS OF, OR DAMAGE TO, DATA; 3) SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR
INDIRECT DAMAGES OR FOR ANY ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES; OR 4) LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS REVENUE, GOODWILL OR
ANTICIPATED SAVINGS. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT
ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR
EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. SOME STATES OR
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN
IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU.

Governing Law
Both you and IBM consent to the application of the laws of the country in
which you acquired the Machine to govern, interpret, and enforce all of your
and IBM’s rights, duties, and obligations arising from, or relating in any

A warranty period of 3 years on parts and 1 year on labor means that IBM
provides warranty service without charge for:
1. parts and labor during the first year of the warranty period; and
2. parts only, on an exchange basis, in the second and third years of the
warranty period. IBM will charge you for any labor provided in
performance of the repair or replacement(s) in the second and third year of
warranty period.

When more than one type of warranty service is listed, IBM will determine
which type of warranty service is appropriate for the repair.

Types of Warranty Service

If required, IBM provides repair or exchange service depending on the type of
warranty service specified for your Machine in the above table and as
described below. Warranty service may be provided by your reseller if

56 Quick Reference

This manual downloaded from http://www.manualowl.com

approved by IBM to perform warranty service. Scheduling of service will
depend upon the time of your call and is subject to parts availability. Service
levels are response time objectives and are not guaranteed. The specified level
of warranty service may not be available in all worldwide locations, additional
charges may apply outside IBM’s normal service area, contact your local IBM
representative or your reseller for country and location specific information.
1. Customer Replaceable Unit (″CRU″) Service
IBM will ship CRU parts to you for your replacement. If IBM instructs you
to return the replaced CRU, you are responsible for returning it to IBM in
accordance with IBM’s instructions. If you do not return the defective CRU,
if IBM so instructs, within 30 days of your receipt of the replacement CRU,
IBM may charge you for the replacement.
2. On-site Service
IBM or your reseller will either repair or exchange the failing Machine at
your location and verify its operation. You must provide suitable working
area to allow disassembly and reassembly of the IBM Machine. The area
must be clean, well lit and suitable for the purpose. For some Machines,
certain repairs may require sending the Machine to an IBM service
center.
3. Courier or Depot Service
You will disconnect the failing Machine for collection arranged by IBM.
IBM will provide you with a shipping container for you to return your
Machine to a designated service center. A courier will pick up your
Machine and deliver it to the designated service center. Following its repair
or exchange, IBM will arrange the return delivery of the Machine to your
location. You are responsible for its installation and verification. This type
of service is called ThinkPad EasyServ or EasyServ in some countries.
4. Customer Carry-In or Mail-In Service
You will deliver or mail as IBM specifies (prepaid unless IBM specifies
otherwise) the failing Machine suitably packaged to a location IBM
designates. After IBM has repaired or exchanged the Machine, IBM will
make it available for your collection or, for Mail-in Service, IBM will return
it to you at IBM’s expense, unless IBM specifies otherwise. You are
responsible for the subsequent installation and verification of the Machine.
5. Limited On-site Service for selected CRUs
IBM or your reseller will perform selected CRU repairs at your request on
the following parts only: power supply, microprocessor, heat sink and
system board. IBM or your reseller will perform the repair at your location
and verify the Machine’s operation. You must provide suitable working
area to allow disassembly and reassembly of the IBM Machine. The area
must be clean, well lit and suitable for the purpose. For some Machines,
certain repairs may require sending the Machine to an IBM service
center.
