depending on the type of warranty service specified for your product and the
available service. Scheduling of service will depend upon the time of your call,
parts availability, and other factors.

CRUs” are CRUs that may require some technical skill and tools. Installation of
Self-service CRUs is your responsibility. You may request that a Service Provider
install Optional-service CRUs under one of the other types of warranty service
designated for your product. An optional service offering may be available for

Service Provider does not receive the defective CRU from you within thirty (30)
days of your receipt of the replacement CRU.
