QUICK START GUIDE: RC-6000 Remote Control
Safety
G The lightning flash with arrowhead
symbol within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user of the presence
of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may
be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to persons. The
exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user of
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the product (i.e.
this Quick Start Guide).
G CAUTION: To prevent electric shock,
do not use the polarized plug supplied
with the device with any extension cord,
receptacle, or other outlet unless the
prongs can be fully inserted.
G Power Source: Use only the power
cord and connector specified for the
product and your operating locale. A
protective ground connection, by way of
the grounding conductor in the power
cord, is essential for safe operation. The
appliance inlet and coupler shall remain
readily operable once the apparatus has
been installed.
G Lithium Battery Caution: Observe the
correct polarity when changing the lithium
battery. There is a danger of explosion if
battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type.
Dispose of used batteries according to
local disposal requirements.
G User Serviceable Parts: There are no
user serviceable parts inside this Symetrix
product. In case of failure, customers
inside the U.S. should refer all servicing to
the Symetrix factory. Customers outside
the U.S. should refer all servicing to an
authorized Symetrix distributor. Distributor

thereof. Products may be returned by Buyer only after a Return
Authorization number (RA) has been obtained from Symetrix. Buyer
will prepay all freight charges to return the product to the Symetrix
factory. Symetrix reserves the right to inspect any products which may

date of purchase (dated copy of original retail dealer’s invoice). Final
determination of warranty coverage lies solely with Symetrix. Products
repaired under warranty will be returned freight prepaid via commercial
carrier by Symetrix, to any location within the Continental United
States. Outside the Continental United States, products will be returned
freight collect.
The foregoing warranties are in lieu of all other warranties,
whether oral, written, express, implied or statutory. Symetrix,
Inc. expressly disclaims any IMPLIED warranties, including
fitness for a particular purpose or merchantability. Symetrix’s
warranty obligation and buyer’s remedies hereunder are SOLELY
and exclusively as stated herein.
This Symetrix product is designed and manufactured for use in

all implied warranties, including but not limited to warranties of

Servicing Your Symetrix Product
If you have determined that your Symetrix product requires repair
services and you live outside of the United States please contact your
local Symetrix dealer or distributor for instructions on how to obtain
service. If you reside in the U.S. then proceed as follows:
Return Authorization
At the Symetrix factory, Symetrix will perform in-warranty or out-ofwarranty service on any product it has manufactured for a period of
three (3) years from date of discontinued manufacture.
Before sending anything to Symetrix, please contact our Customer
Service Department for a Return Authorization (RA) number. The
telephone number is +1.425.778.7728. Additionally, support is available
via the web site: http://support.symetrix.co.
In-warranty Repairs
To g et y ou r Sy me tr ix p ro du ct r ep aire d un de r th e te rm s of t he w ar ra nt y:
1. Call us for an RA number (have the serial number, shipping and
contact information and description of the problem ready).
2. Pack the device in its original packaging materials.
3. Include your name, address, daytime telephone number, and a brief
statement of the problem.
4. Write the RA number on the outside of the box.
5. Ship the device to Symetrix, freight prepaid. We do not accept freight
collect shipments.
Just do these five things, and repairs made in-warranty will cost you
only one way freight charges. We’ll pay the return freight.
If you don’t have the factory packaging materials, we recommend using
an oversize box. Wrap the device in a plastic bag, surround it with
bubble-wrap, and place it in the box surrounded by Styrofoam peanuts.
Be sure there is enough clearance in the box to protect the rack ears.
We won’t return the device in anything but Symetrix packaging for
which we will have to charge you. If the problem is due to operator
misuse or error, you will have to pay for both parts and labor. In any
event, if there are charges for the repair, you will pay for the return
freight. Payment for all charges must be pre-arranged (prepaid, Visa or
Mastercard).
Out-of-warranty Repairs
If the warranty period has passed, you’ll be billed for all necessary
parts, labor, packaging materials, and freight charges. Please
remember, you must call for an RA number before sending the device
to Symetrix.
Limitation of Liability
The total liability of Symetrix on any claim, whether in contract,
tort (including negligence) or otherwise arising out of, connected
with, or resulting from the manufacture, sale, delivery, resale, repair,
replacement or use of any product will not exceed the price allocatable
to the product or any part thereof which gives rise to the claim. In
no event will Symetrix be liable for any incidental or consequential
damages including but not limited to damage for loss of revenue, cost
of capital, claims of customers for service interruptions or failure to
supply, and costs and expenses incurred in connection with labor,
overhead, transportation, installation or removal of products, substitute
facilities or supply houses.
