International Travelers Warranty (ITW)
Your computer is backed by an International Travelers Warranty
(ITW) that gives you security and peace of mind when traveling. An
ITW passport came with your computer and contains all you need to
know about the ITW program. A list of available, authorized service
centers is in this handy booklet. Read this passport thoroughly.
Always have your ITW passport on hand, especially when you travel,
to receive the benefits from our support centers. Attach your proof-of-
purchase to the ITW passport.
If the country you are traveling in does not have an Acer-authorized
ITW service site, you can still get in contact with our offices worldwide.
Please visit www.acer.com.
