Service for Machines Clause Samples
The 'Service for Machines' clause defines the obligations and procedures related to providing maintenance, repair, or support services for machinery or equipment. Typically, this clause outlines the scope of services covered, such as routine maintenance, emergency repairs, or parts replacement, and may specify response times, service intervals, or exclusions. Its core practical function is to ensure that machines remain operational and to clarify the responsibilities of each party, thereby minimizing downtime and disputes over service expectations.
Service for Machines. (during and after warranty)
Service for Machines. IBM provides certain types of Service to keep Machines in, or restore them to, conformance with their Specifications. IBM will inform Customer of the available types of Service for a Machine. At its discretion, IBM will i) either repair or exchange the failing Machine and ii) provide the Service either at Customer’s location or a service center. IBM manages and installs selected engineering changes that apply to IBM Machines and may also perform preventive maintenance. Any feature, conversion, or upgrade IBM services must be installed on a Machine which is i) the designated, serial-numbered Machine, if applicable, and ii) at an engineering-change level compatible with the feature, conversion, or upgrade. When the type of Service requires that Customer deliver the failing Machine to IBM, Customer agrees to ship it suitably packaged (prepaid unless IBM specifies otherwise) to a location IBM designates. After IBM has repaired or exchanged the Machine, IBM will deliver it to Customer at IBM’s expense unless IBM specifies otherwise. IBM is responsible for loss of, or damage to, Customer’s Machine while it is i) in IBM’s possession or ii) in transit in those cases where IBM is responsible for the transportation charges. Customer agrees:
a. to obtain authorization from the owner to have IBM service a Machine that Customer does not own;
b. where applicable, before IBM provides Service, to --
(1) follow the problem determination and service request procedures that IBM provides,
(2) secure all programs, data, and funds contained in a Machine, and
(3) inform IBM of changes in a Machine's location.
c. to follow the Service instructions that IBM provides (which may include installing Machine Code and other software updates either downloaded from an IBM Internet Web site or copied from other electronic media); and
d. when Customer returns a Machine to IBM for any reason --
(1) to securely erase from any Machine all programs not provided by IBM with the Machine and data, including without limitation, the following: i) information about identified or identifiable individuals or legal entities ("Personal Data") and ii) Customer’s confidential or proprietary information and other data. If removing or deleting Personal Data is not possible, Customer agrees to transform such information (e.g., by making it anonymous) so that it no longer qualifies as Personal Data under applicable law;
(2) to remove all funds from Machines returned to IBM. IBM is not responsible for any funds...

Service for Machines. (during and after warranty)
1. obtain authorization from the owner to have IBM service a Machine that you do not own; and
2. where applicable, before IBM provides Service.
a. follow the problem determination, problem analysis, and service request procedures that IBM provides
b. secure all programs, data, and funds contained in a Machine, and
c. inform IBM of changes in a Machine’s location. When Service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item IBM replaces becomes its property and the replacement becomes yours. You represent that all removed items are genuine and unaltered. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The replacement assumes the warranty or maintenance Service status of the replaced item. Before IBM exchanges a Machine or part, you agree to remove all features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under IBM’s service. You also agree to ensure that the item is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that prevent its exchange. Some parts of IBM Machines are designated as Customer Replaceable Units (called, “CRUs”), e.g., keyboards, memory, or hard disk drives, IBM provides CRUs to you for replacement by you. You must return all defective CRUs to IBM within 30 days of your receipt of the replacement CRU. You are responsible for downloading designated Machine Code and LIC updates from an IBM Internet Web site or from other electronic media, and following the instructions that IBM provides. Repair and exchange Services do not cover:
1. accessories, supply items, and certain parts, such as batteries, frames, and covers:
2. Machines damaged by misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating environment, or improper maintenance by you;
3. Machines with removed or altered Machine or parts identification labels;
4. failures caused by a product for which IBM is not responsible;
5. service of Machine alterations; or
6. service of a Machine on which you are using capacity or capability, other than that authorized by IBM in writing. For certain Machines, you may select a Service upgrade from the standard type of warranty Service for the Machine. IBM charges for the Service upgrade during the warranty period. You may not terminate the Service upgrade or transfer it to another Machine during the warranty period. When the warranty period ends, the Machine will convert to maintenance Service at the same type of Service you selected ...
