General Warranty Terms

This ASUS manufacturer warranty is granted by ASUSTeK Computer Inc. to the purchaser of the ASUS computer system (the "Product"). This Warranty is delivered with the Product, subject to the following terms and conditions. ASUS accredited Service Agents and Repair Centers will provide the services covered under this Warranty.

Warranty Period of the Product

This warranty applies for the period defined on the label sticker at the back of the Product ("Warranty Period"). For example, 24M means 24 months, and 36M means 36 months from the date the warranty started ("Warranty Start Date"). This warranty commences on the date the Product was first purchased by an end-customer ("Date of Purchase"), and terminates on the end of the Warranty Period ("Warranty End Date"). If the Date of Purchase is not applicable, the start of the Warranty Period will be on the date the Product was first activated by an end-customer recorded by ASUS ("Date of Activation"). If Date of Activation cannot be applied or proof of purchase cannot be provided, the manufacture date as recorded by ASUS will be deemed to be the start of the Warranty Period. If the Warranty End Date falls upon a national holiday or any non-business day, it will be extended to the next business day. The actual Warranty End Date may vary depending on the countries' national holidays or non-business days.

Warranty Period of Battery

12 months warranty from the Date of Purchase.

Statutory Rights

This warranty is given independently of any statutory rights that may apply in the country of purchase and does not affect or limit such statutory rights in any manner whatsoever.

1. General

ASUS warrants the Product to be free from defects in workmanship and materials in the country where you originally bought your ASUS product during the Warranty Period. Please note that the warranty terms of bundled accessories may differ from the Product in different countries. For more details, please refer to https://www.asus.com/support or https://rog.asus.com/support. (Please select your product by choosing your product series / product model to see its warranty.) If the Product fails during normal and proper use within the Warranty Period, ASUS, at its discretion, will repair or replace the defective parts of the Product, or the Product itself, with new or reconditioned parts or products that are functionally equivalent or superior to those originally supplied.

This Warranty applies only if the Product was newly manufactured on the Date of Purchase and not sold as used, refurbished or manufacturing seconds. Please keep the original purchase invoice and this warranty card for future service requests. This Warranty does not include failure caused by improper installation, operation, cleaning or maintenance, accident, damage, misuse, abuse, non-ASUS modifications to the product, any third-party software programs, normal wear and tear, or any other event, act, default, or omission outside ASUS' control. For further details, see section 6 of this Warranty Card.

All components that an ASUS Service Center repaired or replaced will be under warranty for three months or for the remainder of the warranty period, whichever is longer. The Repair Center may recover the originally configured operation system bundled with the Product. ASUS will not restore or transfer any data or software from the Product's original storage media. If the Product is repaired, all user-generated data may be permanently deleted.

Upon replacement of a Product or part(s) under this Warranty, the original Product or part(s) shall automatically become the property of ASUS. You agree to transfer the ownership of the original Product or part(s) to ASUS and to return it to ASUS if applicable.

2. Software Support

Any software delivered with the Product is provided "as-is". ASUS does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation of any software provided with the Product. Refer to the software license or end-user license agreement for support from the respective vendors.

3. Display Panel Defect Policy

Despite the highest possible standards, the intricate manufacturing of the display panel may still produce slight visual imperfections. These visual imperfections do not impair the performance of Your Product.

However, ASUS will provide the warranty service for Your ASUS Product's display panel only if there are at least:

• 3 bright pixels or 5 dark pixels or 8 bright and/or dark pixels in total; or
• 2 adjacent bright pixels or 2 adjacent dark pixels; or
• 3 bright and/or dark pixels within an area 15 mm in diameter.

NOTE: A bright pixel is a white or sub-pixel that is always on under BLACK pattern. A dark pixel is a dark or sub-pixel that is always off under patterns excluding black.

The inspection conditions are:

• Not less than 30cm distance, in a straight line, between the display panel and the inspector
• Room temperature between 20~40°C
• Lighting is between 300 and 500 lux

4. Customer Responsibility

When using the Product

• Read the user manual first and use the Product only according to the user manual.
• Do not leave the Product connected to the power supply once it is fully charged and not turned on. Some electrical items are not designed to be left connected to the power supply for extended periods of time.
• Periodically back up your data stored on the Product.
• Keep the original packaging. In case the Product needs to be returned for repair, original packaging provides a better protection for the Product during transportation.
• Please check the manual and the ASUS support website for troubleshooting solutions, before contacting customer service.
• If the Product is designed with the TPM (Trusted Platform Module) function, keep the embedded security chip pre-boot password in a safe place (Note: Due to the design of TPM, it is not possible for ASUS to reset the embedded security chip pre-boot password. If the password is lost, the Product can only be repaired by replacing the entire motherboard, which is not covered under the Warranty.)

When contacting ASUS Customer Service

• Before contacting ASUS technical support, ensure that You have the Product in front of You and that it is turned on, if feasible. Please also be ready to provide the Product's serial number, the model name, and proof of purchase.
• Technical support hotline phone numbers can be found at https://www.asus.com/support or https://rog.asus.com/support.

  • Restoring the Product's operating system, factory-installed drivers, and applications to the factory default settings.
  • Installing updates, patches, or service packs.
  • Running diagnostic tools and programs on the Product.
  • Allowing the ASUS technical support agent to access the Product with remote diagnostic tools (when available).
  • Performing other reasonable activities requested by ASUS, which will assist in identifying or resolving the problems.

• Describe the problem clearly and completely on the RMA request form.
• Enclose a copy of this completed warranty card and a copy of Your sales invoice/receipt detailing the purchase of Your Product. (Please note: ASUS reserves the right to request the original documents.) If You do not provide the requested documents for warranty validation, then the manufacture date of the Product as recorded by ASUS will be deemed to be the start of the Warranty Period.
• Ensure that You have fully backed up all the data stored on Your Product and removed any personal, confidential, or proprietary information before any service process is started. ASUS may delete any data, software, or programs installed on the Product without restoring them.

ASUS shall not be held liable for the permanent loss, damage, or misuse of your data.

Pack the Product in safe and stable packaging. The original packaging may be useful for this purpose. In any case, the packaging should meet the following requirements:

Unless specifically requested by ASUS, please remove any accessories as well as any removable storage devices such as memory cards, discs, flash drives, from the Product and do not send in anything but the Product itself. ASUS shall have no liability for the loss, damage, or destruction of accessories or removable storage devices, unless they are sent at ASUS' request and the damage or loss is caused by ASUS' intent or gross negligence.

Remove or provide any password that You assigned to the Product. If access to the Product is blocked by passwords, then ASUS may not detect and repair all failures of the Product.

If the Product is designed with the TPM (Trusted Platform Module) function, provide the embedded security chip pre-boot password.

ASUS shall not be held liable for any harm caused to the life, health, or property of the consumer or other persons in consequence of using of the damaged Product, or the Product that has not undergone diagnostics after the expiration of its service life.

To verify the technical condition of the Product and determine the safety of its further use after the expiration of its service life, the consumer must stop using the Product and submit it to an authorized ASUS service center within one month after detecting damages and/or the expiration of the Product's service life.

5. RMA Methods

If RMA is necessary, you have to deliver your product to the nearest ASUS Repair Center. ASUS may, in its sole discretion, simplify the service procedure by offering you to deliver the Product to the retail shop where you bought it or through a free pick-up and delivery service.

9. Out-of-Warranty Cases

If your product is not protected under the warranty specified in this service manual whether because the warranty period has expired or the product's problem or defect is not eligible for repair (that is, one of the conditions specified by the "Warranty Exclusion Clause"); you may choose to pay for support services outside of the warranty including, but not limited to, telephone support and/or product maintenance services. The warranty service procedures may vary by country. For the latest applicable and most comprehensive ASUS product service information, please refer to the ASUS Support site at https://www.asus.com/support or https://rog.asus.com/support.

Returning the Product to the ASUS Repair Center during the Warranty Period does not automatically mean that it will be repaired free of charge. Upon receiving Your Product, ASUS reserves the right to check the validity of Your Warranty and Your request for Warranty service. If the Warranty Period has lapsed or if any of the exclusions in the Warranty Exclusion Clause apply, Your request will be deemed out of warranty ("OOW").

If Your service request is OOW and if your product is repairable under ASUS evaluation, a Service Charge List with an offer for repair will be provided to You, which You may accept or reject. If You accept the repair and the service charge list, we will provide You with an invoice for the repair labor, spare parts, and other costs stated in the Service Charge List. You must pay the invoice within 14 days of the invoice's issue date. The repair will only be completed after the invoice is settled.

10. Abandoned Property

After Your Product has been repaired/replaced, ASUS will return your repaired product /product replacement via the agreed RMA method. If You do not agree to the repair offer, ASUS will send back your Product in the condition in which it was received via the agreed RMA method. If You do not pick up Your Product, or if delivery is not possible at the address provided by You, ASUS will send You a notice at the address You provided when requesting the service. If You still fail to pick up the Product within a period of 90 days from sending the notice, ASUS reserves the right to claim damages from you, including the cost of storage; to dispose the product in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations; and any statutory right of lien for unpaid charges.
