6.1.1 Returns for Service
Save the original shipping container. If the product needs to be returned for service, it should be packaged in its
original shipping container. If the original container is unavailable, make sure that the product is packed with at least
three inches of shock-absorbing material to prevent shipping damage.
Alpha Technologies is not responsible for damage caused by improper packaging of returned products.

Before unpacking the product, note any damage to the shipping container. Unpack the product and inspect the
exterior for damage. If any damage is observed, contact the carrier immediately.
Continue the inspection for any internal damage. In the unlikely event of internal damage, inform the carrier and con-
tact Alpha Technologies for advice on the impact of any damage.
