To obtain factory service, fill out the

purchase and the defective unit to the Crown factory.
For warranty service, we will pay for ground shipping

the shipping receipts. Shipments should be sent "UPS

C.O.D. for the cost of freight via UPS ground.) The fac-

other arrangements are required.
1. When sending a Crown product to the factory for
service, be sure to fill out the service information
form that follows and enclose it inside your unit's
shipping pack. Do not send the service information
form separately.
2. To ensure the safe transportation of your unit to the
factory, ship it in an original factory packing con-
tainer. If you don't have one, call or write Crown's
Parts Department. With the exception of polyure-
thane or wooden crates, any other packing material
will not be sufficient to withstand the stress of ship-
ping.
3. Do not ship the unit in any kind of cabinet (wood or
metal). Ignoring this warning may result in extensive
damage to the unit and the cabinet. Accessories
are not needed—do not send the instruction
manual, cables and other hardware.
