Repairs made under the terms of this Limited Warranty covering your Planar video product will be performed at the location of the product, during usual working hours, providing location of product is within normal operating distance from a Planar Authorized Service Center. In some instances it may be necessary for the product to be returned to the Planar factory for repairs. If, solely in Planar’s judgment, location of product to be repaired is beyond normal operating distance of the closest Planar Authorized Service Center, or the repair requires the unit be returned to the Planar factory, it is the owner’s responsibility to arrange for shipment of the product for repair. These arrangements must be made through the selling Planar Dealer. If this is not possible, contact Planar directly for a Return Authorization number and shipping instructions. Planar will return product transportation prepaid in the United States, unless no product defect is discovered. In that instance, shipping costs will be the responsibility of the owner.
