Maximum supported lifetime/maximum usage: Parts and components that have exceeded their maximum supported lifetime and/or the maximum usage limitations as set forth in the manufacturer's operating manual, product QuickSpecs, or the technical product data sheet will not be provided, repaired, or replaced as part of this service. 'Fix-on-Request': In addition, HP will install during coverage hours critical firmware updates defined by HP as non-customer-installable at the Customer's request. Critical firmware updates are firmware updates recommended by the HP product division for immediate installation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this document or HPs current standard sales terms, HP will, for select enterprise storage arrays and enterprise tape products, cover and replace defective or depleted batteries that are critical to the proper operation of the covered product. Once the Customer has placed and HP has acknowledged the receipt of a call as described in 'General provisions', HP will work during the coverage window to isolate the hardware incident and to remotely troubleshoot, remedy, and resolve the incident with the Customer. Prior to any onsite assistance, HP may initiate and perform remote diagnostics using electronic remote support solutions to access covered products, or HP may use other means available to facilitate remote incident resolution. HP will provide telephone assistance for the installation of customer-installable firmware and Customer Self Repair parts during the service coverage window. Work to completion may not apply to onsite support provided for desktop, mobile, and consumer products. Repair is considered complete upon HP verification that the hardware malfunction has been corrected or that the hardware has been replaced.
