Warranty options
The IBM 1U 18.5-inch consoles have a three year, customer replaceable unit (CRU) and on-site service,
limited warranty with 9x5/next business day terms. IBM offers the optional warranty service upgrades
through IBM ServicePac® offerings. An IBM ServicePac offering is a series of prepackaged warranty
maintenance upgrades and post-warranty maintenance agreements with a well-defined scope of services,
including service hours, response time, term of service, and service agreement terms and conditions.
IBM ServicePac offerings are country-specific, that is, each country might have its own service types,
service levels, response times, and terms and conditions. Not all covered types of ServicePac offerings
might be available in a particular country. For more information about IBM ServicePac offerings available
