Receiving Inspection

After removing your Battery Pack from its carton, it should be inspected for
damage that may have occurred in shipping. Immediately notify the carrier and
place of purchase if any damage is found. Warranty claims for damage caused
by the carrier will not be honored. The packing materials that your Battery
Pack was shipped in are carefully designed to minimize any shipping damage.
In the unlikely case that the Battery Pack needs to be returned to the manufac­turer, please use the original p acking material. Since the manufacturer is not
responsible for shipping damage incurred when the system is returned, the
original packing material is inexpensive insurance.

PLEASE SAVE THE PACKING MATERIALS!
