3.Also include a note explaining exactly how to duplicate the problem, a copy of the sales receipt with price and date showing, and your return street address (no P.O. boxes or route numbers, please!).

2.Make sure that you have a copy of your sales receipt from the store where you bought the product. If you can’t find it, the Authorized Service Center may charge you for repairs even if your Mackie product is still covered by the Three-Year Limited Warranty.

3.Make sure that the problem can be duplicated. If you bring your Mackie product to an Authorized Service Center and they can’t find anything wrong with it, you may be charged a service fee.

4.If the Authorized Mackie Service Center is located in

Final determination of warranty coverage lies solely with LOUD Technologies or its Authorized Service Centers.
