new or refurbished unit. Refer to the limited warranty included in the booklet to learn about your specific
rights and responsibilities.
Always consult Thomson and get a Return Authorization number before returning anything.
Obtain a Return Authorization (RA) number from the telephone representative before returning your
equipment to avoid delays, accounting errors, or even loss of your unit.
Important Information to Customers Who Ship Defective Equipment to Thomson Consumer
Electronics
The Thomson representative who authorizes the return of your equipment will give you an RA number over
the phone. The representative will also provide you with instructions on where and how to return your unit.
Write the number in large, clear characters on the outside of the box.
To avoid confusion and misunderstandings,
shipments without an RA number clearly visible on the outside of the box will be returned to you at your expense.
Include a brief note describing the problem and any conversations you have had with Thomson personnel
about the problem. Include your name, address and model/serial number of your unit. These numbers are
located on the back of your receiver. If your DSS
®
System is within the warranty period, please provide a copy
of the bill of sale to verify purchase date. Use the original box and packing material to protect the equipment
from damage in shipment.
For your protection, insure all shipments for full replacement value and use a reliable
shipper.
Thomson assumes no responsibility for warranty shipments from the customer to the factory if not
shipped in the manner prescribed by Thomson.
