If Dell elects to exchange a system or component, the exchange will be 
made in accordance with Dell's Exchange Policy in effect on the date of the 
exchange. In any instance in which Dell issues a Return Material 
Authorization Number, Dell must receive the product(s) for repair prior to 
the expiration of the limited warranty period in order for the repairs to be 
covered by the limited warranty. 
These provisions apply to Dell's four-year limited warranty only. For 
provisions of any on-site service contract covering your system, refer to the 
separate on-site service contract that you will receive.
One-Year Limited Warranty (Canada Only)
Dell Computer Corporation ("Dell") manufactures its hardware products

power, servicing not authorized by Dell, usage not in accordance with 
product instructions, failure to perform required preventive maintenance, 
and problems caused by use of parts and components not supplied by Dell.

the following categories: software; external devices (except as specifically 
noted); accessories or parts added to a Dell system after the system is 
shipped from Dell; accessories or parts added to a Dell system through 
Dell’s system integration department; accessories or parts that are not
