HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE (OR JURISDICTION
TO JURISDICTION). DELL'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR MALFUNCTIONS AND
DEFECTS IN HARDWARE IS LIMITED TO REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT AS SET

OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD REFLECTED ON YOUR PACKING SLIP OR
INVOICE. NO WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WILL APPLY
AFTER THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD HAS EXPIRED. SOME STATES DO
NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO
THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

How long does this limited warranty last?
This limited warranty lasts for the time period indicated on your packing slip or invoice, except
for the following Dell-branded hardware:
• Portable computer batteries carry a 1-year limited warranty.
• Projector lamps carry a 90-day limited warranty.
• Memory carries a lifetime limited warranty.
• Monitors carry the longer of either a 3-year limited warranty or the remainder of the
warranty for the Dell computer to which the monitor will be connected.
• Other add-on hardware carries the longer of either a 1-year limited warranty for new

The limited warranty on all Dell-branded products begins on the date of the packing slip or
