out
-of

of
EICO
equipment.
It
is intended to serve
those
customers who are
not sufficiently
familiar
with
electronics
to
make
use
of the
EICO
Service Consul-
tation
facilities,
or whose
difficulties cannot be solved
by correspondence.
For all out-of
-warranty
units,
there
is
a
minimum
labor and
handling fee. Charges
for parts
replaced
are
additional to the
minimum
fee.
For
in
-warranty completed
kit
units, there is a
minimum
labor and handling fee.
There
is no charge
for a
replaced
defective part provided that the terms
and
conditions
of the
warranty for no
charge
replace
-
ment are not
violated
in
the
judgement of
EICO.
For
in
-warranty
factory-wired units, there is no
charge for
labor
or
parts if
the unit complies with
the
terms
and conditions of the
warranty
in the
judgement
of
EICO.
However,
if
the
terms and
conditions
of
the
warranty
are violated
there
will
be
a
charge
for labor
plus
parts.
In

the

On
kits, the services
rendered
for
the minimum
labor
and handling
fee
are
the correction
of any
minor
wiring errors (not extensive
corrections
or
rewiring),
the
labor involved
in replacing
defective
parts,
and
any adjustments,
alignment, or
calibration
procedures
that would normally
be
performed
on
a
factory
-wired
unit. Units not wired
according
to
instructions,
or
modified in any
way,
or
showing
evidence
of
the use
of acid core solder, will
not

be
returned to the customer
forthwith.

A
list
of authorized

with this

of stations may
change
from
time to time, and if considerable
time has
elapsed since youpurchased your unit, you are
advised
to contact the station you choose
before
sending
the
unit
to
-them
for repair. Use of a
local
service
station
will often result
in
faster

lower
transportation costs.
It
is necessary that you comply
with
the
Shipping
Instructions that follow
when sending
in
a unit for

carton and inserts should
re

The carton
may be collapsed
for storage in as small a
space
as
possible.
In
very
many
cases,
the same
carton
is
used
for

will serve for reshipment
of
the
completed
