All dimensions are approximate. Operating environment ThinkPad computers are designed, built, and tested for high quality and reliability. When used properly in standard business environments, a ThinkPad system should be a reliable computing asset for many years. Harsh environments and abuse can damage ThinkPad systems because they are not intended to withstand extreme temperatures, dust, shock, or other severe physical environments. ThinkPad systems should not be used in unsuitable environments. For example, a ThinkPad system should not be used in nonstationary environments, such as in-vehicle installations, without additional casing or shock dissipation.

To view considerations or Service Hints and Tips by operating system, visit http://www.lenovo.com/think/support Vendor software compatibility Lenovo tests a large number of commonly used and available applications for compatibility with its ThinkPad systems using supporting operating systems and configurations. In general, you can expect that most vendor applications designed to run on supported operating systems and Intel-compatible system architectures should be compatible with a ThinkPad system. Some configurations, however, may not be compatible. Lenovo does not warrant or support vendor software products, nor guarantee compatibility of those products with Lenovo systems. Refer to the applicable warranty and license terms provided by the respective vendors. Limitations ThinkPad T500 and W500 series models featuring a Windows Vista 32- or 64-bit operating system and XP Professional can support up to 3 to 4 GB of addressable memory respectively. For a list of tips about running various versions of operating systems, visit http://www.lenovo.com/think/support Planning information Cable orders All required cables are included in the shipment group. Installability ThinkPad notebook systems require approximately 20 minutes for installation, which includes unpacking, setting up, and powering on the system. Additional time is required to install optional memory and other features. Lenovo is a registered trademark of Lenovo Corporation 29

Terms and conditions To obtain copies of the Lenovo Limited Warranty, contact your reseller or Lenovo. Warranty period System hardware: Three years on parts and labor (machine types 2055, 2089, and 4061) System battery: One year Optional Lenovo features initially installed in a Lenovo system carry the same warranty period as the system. If installed after the initial system installation, they carry the balance of the system warranty or the optional feature warranty, whichever is greater. Warranty service If required, your service provider provides repair or exchange service depending on the type of warranty service specified for the machine. A service technician will attempt to resolve your problem over the telephone. You must follow the problem determination and resolution procedures. Scheduling of service will depend upon the time of your call and is subject to parts availability. Service levels are response time objectives and are not guaranteed. The specified level of warranty service may not be available in all worldwide locations. Additional charges may apply outside your service provider's normal service area. Contact your local service provider representative or your reseller for country- and location-specific information. Customer replaceable unit (CRU) service Under CRU service, your service provider will ship CRUs to you for installation by you. CRU information and replacement instructions are shipped with your product and are available from Lenovo at any time upon request. CRUs that are easily installed by you are called self-service CRUs, while optional-service CRUs may require some technical skill and tools. Installation of self-service CRUs is your responsibility. You may request that a service provider install optionalservice CRUs under one of the other types of warranty service designated for your product. An optional service offering may be available from Lenovo to have Lenovo install self-service CRUs for you. You can find a list of CRUs and their designation in the publication that is shipped with your product or at http://www.lenovo.com/crus The requirement to return a defective CRU, if any, will be specified in the materials shipped with a replacement CRU. When return is required, return instructions, a prepaid return shipping label, and a container will be included with the replacement CRU. You may be charged for the replacement CRU if your service provider does not receive the defective CRU within 30 days of your receipt of the replacement. Customer carry-in or mail-in service Lenovo is a registered trademark of Lenovo Corporation 30

Under customer carry-in or mail-in service, your product will be repaired or exchanged at a designated service center, with delivery or shipping arranged by you. You are responsible to deliver or mail the product, as your service provider specifies, (prepaid by you unless specified otherwise) suitably packaged to a designated location. After the product has been repaired or exchanged, it will be made available for your collection. Failure to collect the product may result in your service provider disposing of the product as it sees fit. For mail-in service, the product will be returned to you at Lenovo's expense, unless your service provider specifies otherwise. International Warranty Service (IWS) IWS is available during the warranty period to customers who travel or relocate to countries where their computer is sold and serviced by a Service Provider authorized to perform warranty service. Eligible Lenovo computers are identified by their four-digit machine type. You can obtain IWS through the method of service, such as CRU, depot, carry-in, or on-site, provided in the servicing country. Service methods and procedures vary by country, and some service or parts may not be available in all countries. Service centers in certain countries may not be able to service all models of a particular machine type. In addition, some countries may have fees and restrictions that apply at the time of service. Note: Due to the earth's magnetic field, cathode ray tube (CRT) monitors are manufactured to work in northern, southern and equatorial regions of the earth and may not produce a satisfactory image when moved between them. Any required adjustment (if possible) is not covered under IWS and may be subject to a chargeable action. The magnetic field does not affect flat panel LCD monitors and ThinkPad LCD displays.
