Product Warranty 
Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be free from 
defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of purchase. 
This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by 
persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or which have been subject 
to misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Advantech assumes no liability under 
the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events. Because of Advantech high 
quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of our customers never need to use our 
repair service. If any of Advantech products is defective, it will be repaired or replaced at no 
charge during the warranty period. For out-of-warranty repairs, you will be billed according 
to the cost of replacement materials, service time, and freight. Please consult your dealer 
for more details. If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps: 
1.  Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU type and 
speed, Advantech products / model name, hardware & BIOS revision number, other 
hardware and software used, etc.) Note anything abnormal and list any on-screen 
messages you get when the problem occurs. 
2.  Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product, and any 
helpful information available. 
3.  If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return material authorization) 
number from your dealer. This allows us to process your good return more quickly. 
4.  Carefully pack the defective product, a complete Repair and Replacement Order Card 
and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt) in a shippable 
container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date is not eligible for 
warranty service. 
5.  Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and ship it prepaid to your 
dealer.
