Service and repair

6.1 Introduction

The TracPhone systems are designed to operate without preventive routine
maintenance.
Although the system is designed and built very service friendly, we strongly
recommend that any acting service technician is trained specifically on the
product. Repair or repair attempts performed by unqualified personnel may
limit the warranty. The warranty on the system is defined and outlined by the
distributor that supplied the system.
For further information on warranty and service, please contact a KVH dealer
or distributor. To find a dealer/distributor near you, visit KVH's web site at
www.kvh.com/wheretogetservice.
