This warranty extends only to you, the original Purchaser. It is not transferable to anyone who subsequently purchases, leases or otherwise obtains the Product from you. It excludes expendable parts. During the warranty period, Acer will, at no additional charge, repair or replace defective hardware with factory-refinished parts or products. All exchanged parts and Products replaced under this warranty will become the property of Acer. In the event the Product exhibits a defect in material or workmanship within the warranty period, Acer will provide the warranty services applicable to the Product.
