1.2  Warranty 
and 
Service Support 
1-1 
Motorola offers long term support for its products. This support includes full exchange and/or repair 
of 
the product during the warranty period, and service/repair or spare parts support out 
of 
warranty. Any 
"return for exchange" or "return for repair" by 
an 
authorized Motorola dealer must be accompanied 
by 
a warranty claim form. Warranty claim forms are obtained by contacting customer service. 
1.2.1  Warranty Period 
The terms and conditions 
of 
warranty are defined fully 
in 
the Motorola dealer or distributor or reseller 
contract. These conditions may change from time to time and the following notes are for guidance 
purposes only. 
1.2.2  Return Instructions 
In instances where the product is covered under a "return for replacement" or "return for repair" 
warranty, a check 
of 
the product should be performed prior to shipping the unit back to Motorola. This 
is to ensure that the product has been correctly programmed or has not been subjected to damage 
outside the terms 
of 
the warranty. 
Prior to shipping any radio back to a Motorola warranty depot, please contact the appropriate 
customer service for instructions. 
All returns must be accompanied by a warranty claim form, 
available from your customer services representative. Products should be shipped back 
in 
the original 
packaging, or correctly packaged to ensure 
no 
damage occurs 
in 
transit. 
1.2.3  After Warranty Period 
After the Warranty period, Motorola continues to support its products 
in 
two ways: 
Firstly, Motorola's Accessories and Aftermarket Division (ADD) offers a repair service to both end 
users and dealers at competitive prices. 
Secondly, Motorola's service department supplies individual parts and modules that can be 
purchased by dealers who are technically capable 
of 
performing fault analysis and repair.
