Legal Notes - GE Voluson E Series Service Manual

Introduction
Damage in transportation
All packages should be closely examined at time of delivery. If damage is apparent write "Damage In
Shipment" on ALL copies of the freight or express bill BEFORE delivery is accepted or "signed for" by a GE
representative or hospital receiving agent. Whether noted or concealed, damage MUST be reported to the
carrier immediately upon discovery, or in any event, within 14 days after receipt, and the contents and
containers held for inspection by the carrier. A transportation company will not pay a claim for damage if an
inspection is not requested within this 14 day period.
